爱真的是需要勇气

勇气是一堂很重要的课题。也是我们很多人所欠缺的力量！缺乏爱的勇气，导致家人，亲人和好友之间的距离。总是欠了那么的一步。当你用尽力量向前跨个半步。耗尽所有勇气剩下半步，就停顿了。我们与家人同在一个屋檐下，可是有多久没对家人说声“谢谢”或“对不起”最基本，简单的礼貌用词。还是认为彼此是共同生活的家人，这已经是理所当然了。就是“你应该为我做的”。

但你可知道，向身边的人道歉或道谢。也是一种表现勇气的方法。人与人之间的距离，由于彼此都不愿意“示爱”，让彼此中的距离总是隔着这么近又那么远的一步。时间或许能修补人与人之间所隔下的心防，但没有沟通的话，绝对不能改变长久相处的摸似。请成为吧！成为向前踏出那一步的那个人。并学会对家人说谢谢或对不起，甚至是进一步的一个拥抱或牵手。你会发现爱，其实是很简单，长期坚持，勇于改变，真爱与勇气，不怕说不出口。最近我和Kev到怡保做分享会，很多家人的分享是：他们鼓起勇气和爸爸妈妈说“我爱你”，结果得到的反应是“你发生了什么事？是不是要寻短见。。”这真的是一件很可悲的事。我爱你应该是常常挂在口中，是一件值得庆祝的事情啊！所以让我们慢慢的让全天下的父母都得到这一份爱的礼物，不要等到失去后才来后悔。我爱你们哦！

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Although This is year is a Mouse Year... I still using the Pig carton to wish all of my family and friends ... Happy 2008!



Pig means:

P - Persistence, Passion

I - Intelligence, Innovation

G - Gut



We are living in the life of Abundance, with Success, love, health, Wealth and Happiness is always with us....

塞不完的人生

已经好久没看报纸了，几天前打开报纸看到一篇报导说到“塞不完的人生”。

说到：如果有一天他决定离开这个大城市的原因，肯定是因为塞车的缘故吧！因为他觉察到若把花在路上的时间加起来，从上班，出席各种活动和私人约会，午餐，花在路上的时间是他人生的四分之一。人的精神与动力都在车厢里停此跳动了。

哇！四分之一耶！对一些人来说也许是正常的。对我来说，却有很大的感触。我们可以花更多时间在很有意义的事。我们不知道我们错过了多少美妙的时刻。最后，他写着：“夜里的城市被塞车的车龙里车灯点缀成一幅美丽的图画，我开着车看不到公路的尽头，而这就是我的人生吗？”

作者也许有觉察到这已经不是他要的人生，或他已经习惯，任为理所当然了！这是件多么常见的事，因为我们有选择啊！

几年前的我也不就是这么的走过，一大清早出门，做一份工作，早出晚归。由于工作太累，周末都想好好留在家里，没事情做，就看连续剧，因为戏剧里的故事触动情感，几个小时内就窝在那感觉里，很伤感离愁。这就是我想要过有意义的人生吗？这是我常问自己的问题？现在我终于知道人是有“选择”的。

刚刚过的CV课程里，Linda老师有提到如果我们每一天都过得匆匆忙忙的，不停的赶！赶！赶！就这样过了一生，到底是为了过更好的生活还是只为了可以好好的生存在这个世界上。每天设目标，往目标奋斗，到底我们的出发点是甚么？生存？过更好的生活？因为要赚很多钱，所以“有一天”　我可以过幸福的生活。

“有一天”　或　“如果有一天”这个想法一直让我们活在过去！辛福就在此刻开始。为什么要等到有一天？难道要等有一天我有大房子才可以过辛福的人生。我有钱才可让家人更快乐，是真的吗？其实在当下，就可以享受人生.

Universal Response

A friends of mine forward an very interesting mail to me "Universal Response". There is a four simple question to answer. Everyone feel right about their own answer...

There is no right or wrong. What you believe is what you will see.

Everyone pick up the choice which align with their current beliefs. There will always be many question and challenge in life? You will be thankful its showed up when you can deal with the challenge one day.

What is the most difficult to find in life?
1) Purpose of Life
Don't Look for your purpose, you won't find it. Create your purpose, Purpose serves as principle organize your life arround. you should give meaning to Life not wait for life to give you meaning.

2) Enough Time
You will never "find" time for anything. If you want time, you must make it. Don't count everyhour in a day, make everyhour in the day count.

3)Clarity of Direction
If you rush to get ahead, you're busy looking at the speedometer forgetting the milestones. Direction is more important than speed. Don't shun finding direction.


4)Peace of Mind
PEACE come from living in the moment. Be Present. Looking for the good in others and letting of fears. you are not peaceful because you choose to be sorrow long before you experience it.

What is the most challenging to deal with in life?

1) Facing the unknown
Whenever there is a chooice due with the unknown, Even if you suffer, It is worth. You always come out of it more grown up, more intelligent. You will never leave a foot print, if you go on a well laid walking track.

2) Managing Failures
Failures is God's Plan to prepare you for greater responsibilities. Do it and fail and don't fail to Do. Failure is a nature consequence Doing. Failure is a condiment that gives success its ultimates flavour.

3) Staying positive
Everyday may not be good, but there is something good in everyday. It's not your position, but your disposition that makes you happy or unhappy. If you're busy looking for gold you miss the silver lining.

4) Taking correct decisions
There is no Good and Bad decision, only different perspective you look at it. Make decision from you heart and make it happened.

What is hard to let go in life?
1) You Ego
Most of the shadows of your life are caused by standing in your own sunshine. The "go" in Ego meant to let it go.

2) You Fear
Fear is false evidence appearing real. Don't allow your fear to grow bigger than your faith. when you fear you will suffer, you already suffer what you fear.

3)Your Past
Don't live in your past, past gives you memories, experience and expectations. Its may make you clever but not clear. You don't own yesterday or tomorrow, what you own is RIGHT NOW. Value and treasure whatever you have right now.

4) Your Worried
Worry is the interest paid on trouble before it become due. Real difficulties can be overcomes. But imaginary one create worried. Let "Go" and Let Universe handle it.

What is hard to be convinced about life?
1)God Exists
Existence of God is easy to understand but difficult to explain. People see God everyday but don't recognize. God is in everyone, we are here to manifest the spirit of God.

2) Prayers have power.
Players should not be an occasional impulse to respond when in trouble. Players is a life attitudes.

3) Truth Wins.
Truth will set you free, but first it will makes you miserable. Follow your heart and always tell the truth.

4)Adversity Helps
Problems are the price you paid for progress. Smooth seas do not create skillful sailors. Universe get you to deep waters not to drown you, but to cleanser you.

博客 Vs 部落格 Personal Blog

所谓的博客或者部落格。。。是一个很棒的联系平台。我一开始写博客的意图是要把很多正面，有意义的讯息传达出去，同时很真实和自在的表达自己的感受和觉察.

哈哈！可是常常都在不同的国家探望CV家人，所以勿略了我的博客。。最近开始抽时间好好的欣赏CV家人的博客，好像台湾的Jeff, 吉隆坡的Jackson 和James，汶莱的Jamila (吃面啦！)，怡保的Angie. 每一位都很用心的在分享，自己的觉察，喜悦，心德。。从每个家人的故事中，我领悟了很多。感恩你们的分享和互相给于支持和鼓励。

除了在CV的分享会和工具交流会中，可以和大家做联结和交流。博客的交流也在我人生中增加精彩的色彩。就好像James博客中分享他新生宝宝的喜悦，我真的能够深深的感受到，同时会为这件事而开心。

如果你们要游览家人们的博客，可以到我博客的左下角(my buddy)中做连接。祝福，每天都是最美好的一天！

Precious Time with Linda and KO

Wow! We have a Wonderful dinner on 21st August (Tuesday)....in Kuching.

Thank you Linda & Ko for creating such an precious moment with us.

Love what you do, Do what you love...爱你所选，选你所爱。。

爱你所选，选你所爱
从19 岁离开故乡，常常会问自己。“我真正要过怎样的人生呢?" 　要如何找我的热忱？在新加坡9年。。得到很多，了解很多，非常谢谢出现在我生命中的所有朋友和亲人。

在核心价值的课程中，Linda 老师曾经问过：“你愿意把你这珍贵的人生变得伟大吗？”我顿时想了一会。。。有多少时候，我想去做自己喜欢做的事，都没股起勇气做，或告诉我自己。明天吧！明年吧！直到开始不相信会有哪么一天。就很努力的工作，因为努力工作赚钱就会有哪一天。心理总是这样想。当我听到这句话时，我知道我必须舍得。。放下一些事情。在台湾的CV3我领悟了很多。。在台湾我看到Sunny对CV 的付出时，不只在CV 课程里，在课外的生活习惯都很重要。在Sunny 家分享会时，我突发说了一句话，从此改变了我的人生. 因为我觉得马来西亚的家人们都应该团结起来，创造我们的环境。想到Lee 在马来西亚的努力，我决定到古晋成为他的团队之一。就这样。。我开始做我最爱，最热忱的事。分享快乐。让心自由。

古晋的Core Value 课程刚过，每天都是我最美好的一天！每天都收到很都有意义的电话，短讯。在很多地方的分享会，我好感动，眼泪不停的往下流。谢谢CV，谢谢老师和所有的家人。让更多人的人生变得更美好。让我活在丰富的每一天. 我爱你们。

LOVE what you do, Do What you LOVE..

When I left my home town.. (kelantan). Start my new journey in Singapore. I keep on asking myself. " What is life?" keep on looking for my passion in life! During 9 years journey in singapore, I learned and met a lot of friends. Thanks to my dear friends and family members who showing to uplift, inspire and support all the time.

In Core Value Training Program, Our teacher Linda asked: "Are you willing to play Big in your precious life?" I am seriously think about this questions... Yes! of course.. Sometime, when we would like to proceed with what we love to do... it's need a lot of courage and we always told ourselves.. maybe do it tomorrow or next year....

During my CV3 in Taiwan gathering, out of sudden, I share with everyone that when I am back to Malaysia, I will be assist LEE in Core Value Training.. This choice change my life.. I have shifted to new environment and Do what I Love.. Passion and this is my new life...

We have such amazing Kuching Core Value for last 2 weeks...I would like thanks you guy trust us and yourself choose to come to Core Value training and made a huge impact for the class.

Today, i have aware of being courage enough to deal with fear and doubt... and aware that my past experience not equal to now.

I learned a lesson about "promise"... I feel very frustration and confuse.. when I am breaking my own promises to other. This make me think about my dad who always promise to bring me to school but he never.. I choice to throw away my pre-judgemental and assumption..

The power of now and present is so powerful that, we don't own yesterday or even tomorrow, we do own now. we only responsible for ourselves. If I choose to deal with my fear and take up the challenge will reduce the risk.

Bringing JOY to Old Folk Home (Kuching)

Wow! What a meaningful CV events?
On 19th May, We organize an events "Wild on Town to Old Fork Home". Thanks to Jeannie and Mioting who have put in effort to make this event so meaningful. We have about 16 peoples joined, (Lee, Mioting, Kev, Me, Jeannie, Michelle, Jenny, Sheng Wei, Michael Chuo, Amy, Bonny, Priscila, Teo LP, Ee Luan, 2 little girls Nene and Nana) We start the briefing in Lee's House... Kev's have remind everyone don't sent pity energy to them. Our intention is to bring love, joy and happiness.

When we arrive Old Folk Home... there is about 80 peoples but 28 of them stay at room because they're sick. My feeling is... at the begining, I don't know how to communicate with them... There are all different dialect.. Malay, Hokkien, chinese, Hakka... So Michelle, Me and Lee on the stage start talking in different language. After that I felt that language is not important at all, as long as we use our heart to connect with them.

1st round, we dance "I believe", not many of them participate... Lee suggested to have 2nd round of dance so we dance "I believe" again... OH... Slowly.. Slowly.. they all come out to dance with us.. Everyone enjoyed.. YEAH!

Everyone of us have very good awareness, when we bring joy to others, we received their return immediately. There are many aunt and uncle.. perform sing and dance, they intend to sent their gratitute to us.. They sang " You are my sunshine" "Oh Carol", and some chinese song...

Before we left, we hug and I saw tear in their eye... We're not bringing any material things to them.. we bring JOY. That is more than enough..
What a great meaningful event! Yeah!

What I feel like saying is...

What I feel like saying is....
Past few month till now... wow! My life is fulfilling of joy, gratitude, Challenges and Excitement. My life changing in depth. I believe that sometime, When dealing with challenge is test whether I adopt the right choice fast enough to make the change. Haha!

We are all like the burning candle in the wind. When we are shining, we allow others to shine. When one of the candles is blown off by the wind, there are so many other burning candles surrounding us to light us up again. Choose to surround ourselves with the shinning candles, and I choose to BE a shining candle.

So grab that I choose to attend CV, choose to surround with all the positive and high energy peoples. Creating positive environment for myself. I can have a great day with the people that I love, with the people that uplift and believe in me.

I choose to see the possibility in other and really wish that humanity in the world lives harmoniously with the environment of large in abundance, appreciation and acceptance.

The Four Agreement

"Our Life is determine by movies that we watched, books that we read and peoples that we meet." I would like to recommend a very good book from DON MIGUEL RUIZ. [The Four Agreement] ; A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom.

Maybe some of you have read it before, please read it again and again. 3 Years ago, one of my mentor pass me this book, I fininshed it but not much impact.. Recently, I read it again... wah! I got a lot of new awareness and experience. Happy reading!

THE FOUR AGREEMENT

1) Be Impeccable with your Word
Speak with Integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.

2) Don't Take anything Personally
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering.

3) Don't Make Assumptions
Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness, and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.

4) Always Do you Best
Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse, and regret.

I am going to order hundred copies for English and Chinese Version, call me if you would like to have one. Have a Best day!

Precious Moment with My Parent in law

I have land Singapore alone on 26th Apr 2007 @3.30 midnight. Our regular JB Driver come and pick me and sent me to our Johor house.

I reached Kulai (Johor) @6am, my parent in law is waiting for me. Yeah! They welcome me home. As me and Kev seldom back to Johor, both of them actually treasured every single moment to be with us. Same to me, I appreciate it.

I have a great time with them, we share, we laugh, we talk and we have a photo viewing session together. My mother in law show me Kev's childhood photo..... haha! From 1 year old to 8 year old... Gosh! I saw his baby naked photo... His dad keep on point out those photo that he like and he said:" you see, you see, my son so cute.. I like this photo".

Mh..my dear dear kev, from this experience.. I realize that you have a very loving mummy and daddy, who love you so much. Of Course, they love me too. Hahaha! Thanks to mother who cooked vegetarian food for me and choose to eat with me.

Although I only be with them for one day....It's my precious moment. Thanks to mother and father. We Love You. " Happy Mother Day!"

~珍贵时刻~
4 月26日到达新加坡，这一次我一个人丛深圳回来。同样的，阿顺我们的常用司机朋友来载我。到古来家，已经早上6点了。我的家婆和家翁等我回家。好棒哦！我跟Kev 都很少回家所以他们很珍惜每一刻和我们在一起的时光。当然，我们也很珍惜。

我和他们有很美好的时光，我们分享，聊天和不停的笑。妈妈拿了kev小时候的照片给我看。哈哈！从1 岁到8岁的照片！哎呀！我看到他裸体照。爸爸不断的指着照片说：你看，你看，好可爱哦！

从这个经验我发现，Kev 真的有个很爱她的爸爸和妈妈。当然，天下的父母的很疼爱自己的孩子。还有要补充的，哈哈！他们也很爱我。谢谢妈妈为我准备的素食餐。虽然只花一天的时间和他们在一起，可是这是我珍贵的一天。谢谢妈妈和爸爸。我们爱你。“母亲节快乐！”

New Born, New Life...

Last Week, I found some beautiful baby photo and thinking to write something related to new born, new life....
This morning, I went to Taman Desa Medical Centre to visit my friend, she just delivered baby boy, 3.45kg and very adorable. I am there with her for 1 1/2 hours.

I look at the cute baby... I told the baby boy (Adrain) : Welcome to wonderful world! Wow! There is so many new born baby come into this world everyday. This is life Journey, a new life to them and their parent as well.

Everyone come to this world have assign with their life purpose and mission. Due to busy working life style, some of us might be forgetted. What is your life purpose? what are you willing to contribute or add value to the universe? I found my life purpose and value in core value training... I feel so thankful and grateful to Core value instructors and Logistic. To everyone who show up in my life..

上星期，看到一些美丽的婴儿照，突然有很大的感触，很想写有关新生命。。。

今早，我去医院探望了一位朋友，他刚生产一个可爱的男婴儿，我们聊了1 1/2 小时。我看着那小婴儿，他的名字叫Adrain, 我告诉他：欢迎来到这美妙的世界！哇！每天都有新生命，新婴儿的出世，这就是人生的路程。新的人生，新的开始。。

相信每个人来到这世界上一定有他自己的人生使命，人生意义。也许忙碌的生活，我们把它给忘了。你的人生意义是甚么呢？你愿意为这社会增加甚么价值呢？我在核心价值的课程找到了我的人生意义和价值，非常的感谢核心价值里的老师和工作团队，也谢谢所有出现在我生命当中的人。。。

Are you willing to play big?

I wish to share this lovely poem share by Linda. This poem truly inspirational and meaningful.

A poem wrote by an 18 year old young man in the battle of World War 1 (90 years ago)

Are you the one who used to say
That you will do really big things someday
Are you the one who boast you dare
That you would achieve the uttermost one day
Or did you merely wish to show to demonstrate how much you know
Fate left twelve precious months in your hand
How many of them did you dare and share
Another year has just passed through
How many truly big things did you do

(How you will answer this poem in one year? What will the next 12 months be to you?
Time moves fast)

深圳的喜悦

深圳这个地方之前对我来说是一个很陌生的地方。。可是现在回想起，深圳是我生命中的转坜点。它让我找到辛福，生命的意义，了解了真正的自己和认识很知心的朋友。

明天又要重回深圳，好多喜悦和感觉不停的涌过来。好期待！而我非常相信这一次又是另一个有意义的行程。为甚么深圳那么特别呢？哈哈！


在去年还没去深圳前，我的心情和情绪有点底落。。不知道有一股
力量，让我在一个星期的期限内突然决定要到深圳，在很不知觉和匆忙的情况下，我来到了一个很棒的城市！我到那是参与“商学院”的工作人员。我们住在一个很漂亮的山庄。“祺祾山庄”在那住了14天，却让我留下了美好的回忆。

我遇见了好多年不见的大哥（刘发大哥）我的干妹妹（齐雪) 我最敬佩的Linda 老师，还有我最心爱的老公.......
当然还有好多很棒的朋友。。

第一次感受到Linda老师的能量，亲切，智慧。多么有力量的老师。它让我在Core Value Training 里更了解内在的自己。（见以下核心价值的分享）谢谢老师无条件的爱与付出。让世界更美妙。

看着这一张第一次跟Kev拍的照片，当时我们都没预料到今天会成为情人。好好笑！我们在3年前就认识，感情不怎么样的普通朋友。可是他告诉我那时已经是他的梦中情人。哈哈！我们却在3年后重遇。重遇时，非常的兴奋。。可是两人都忘了我们如何相识。只是觉得好熟悉。接下来的故事就不谈了。嘻嘻嘻！哈哈哈！哦哦哦！谢谢Kev走进了我生命当中，在你身上我学会了好多，学会了更爱我自己，活出力量的自己。Stay in my own power. Yeah!

少吃肉，利益全球

你知道嗎？為了滿足人類的飲食欲望，農場動物的數量已經急據增加，現在，超過60億個人、近10億頭豬、13億頭母牛、18億頭綿羊和山羊及154億隻雞，正一起瓜分著地球上有限的資源，以往我們總認為富有國家才是肉品的主要 消費者 ，然而你知道嗎？近10年來，就算是貧窮國家，肉品的平均每人消費量，也已經成長了約1倍……。因為這種情形而預見未來危機的世界友善農業組織（CIWF），發起了「少吃肉」運動，並出版《少吃肉，利益全球（The Global Benefits of Eating Less Meat）》這份報告。

在這份報告裡，作者Mark Gold明確指出，畜牧規模的擴大並不足以餵養不斷成長的人口，不僅如此，若再繼續將動物性產品作為糧食政策的中心，地球資源的吃緊，因為農產動物所生產出來的肉和乳製品，其實是用很多的水以及食用更多卡路里的食物換來的（美國農業部經濟研究局的資料指出，16公斤的穀物才可以生產1公斤的牛肉）。

這種方式，不但效率不佳，窮人其實也買不起這些肉品和乳品，更何況，若一個國家連供應境內貧民最起碼的糧食都不夠，哪裡還有餘力在同一塊土地上種植飼料作物。此外，當一個國家中，中產階級的食肉率增高，對窮人而言，正表示著他們潛在的食物減少了；相反的，人類直接取用土地上所種植的作物其實可獲得更多的糧食。

正確的飲食可以調整個人的健康狀態，也關係到一個人晚年是否會罹患像癌症、心血管疾病或糖尿病等疾病。目前，營養學家已都有普遍共識，攝取飽和脂肪和精煉的糖，與不健康最有關聯，而肉類、肉類製品和乳製品正占人們飽合脂肪攝取的最大比例，所以，減少消費動物產品，轉而增加攝取富含纖維質的碳水化合物、新鮮蔬果，才能將這些疾病和肥胖的風險降低。因飲食所引起的相關疾病，除了身體上受苦之外，還得負擔相當高額的醫療費，2001年時，光是心臟病的成本就已經超過1800億美元，當然，動物性食品並不是唯一原因，但是我們並不能否認該思考思考個問題了，而且，心臟病只要靠飲食習慣的改善，就可以有所好轉，也就是說，適當的飲食和營養，可以改善病情，更積極點來講，若有正確的飲食──多蔬果的飲食，這些疾病本來都是可以預防的。

除了對健康不好，畜牧業正對環境造成負面的影響，因為人類過度繁殖出太多太多的動物，以致於地球不斷地承受著無法支撐的壓力。在過去，動物的排泄物具有重大利益，在輪作系統之中，它是生產各種糧食並維持土壤健康的重要關鍵，然而現在的情況卻不同往昔，據資料統計，全世界的家畜每年製造約130憶噸的排泄物，這麼大量的排泄物如何處理便是一大問題，事實上，它正嚴重地污染著水源和土壤；另外，農場動物所製造的溫室氣體，而化肥和殺蟲劑種植飼料作物，對環境的傷害也是一等一的。 此外，過度放牧和飼養動物也對野生生物造成嚴重的衝繫，大片的雨林因此而消失，嚴重的沙漠化也侵襲著地球……。

動物是有感知的生命，然而為了增加肉品的產量，工業化農場經營是唯一方法，但這樣的生產模式卻忽視了動物們的權利和需要──4萬隻肉雞被飼養在一個18至19平公尺的地方，好幾隻母雞被關在一個狹窄的鐵絲籠中，才五個月大就必須開始規律地生蛋；懷胎的母豬不是被拴住，就是被關在夾欄中；小牛在和母親分開後，就得面對恐怖的育肥期；還有基因改造動物，有人宣稱這可以更有效率地將穀物轉換成肉、乳和蛋，然而這卻是以動物的痛苦和生命的浪費為代價，因為在基因改造和複製的過程中，只有少數的生命可以健康而有活力地成長──這是殘忍而浪費的。

以上種種問題，唯有透過降低動物的繁殖、飼養和屠宰的數量，也就是降低肉品的生產和消費，才有可能獲得改善。近20年來，已有許多人徹底地改變其飲食習慣，素食者的人口顯著增加，已占了總人口的5%，其中嚴格素食者也已約有25萬人右，而CIWF出版的《少吃肉──利益全球》這份報告的目的，就是想鼓勵更多人支持這些行動。
