Athlete

An athlete is someone training to win a competition, to be the one above all others.

He/she eats well, sleeps well, trains hard and correctly.
Focuses well and does not allow energy, time and finances to be diverted otherwise.
Keeps oneself emotionally, physically healthy.
Nurses one's thoughts to be sharp in judgment, removing the mind from the subjection of minor distractions.
Has the ability to constantly motivate oneself.
He/she lives as one plans to and not want to.
The vision of a win is constantly on the mind and heart.

If he/she plays in a team, then he/she needs to be a teamplayer, has high emotional quotient and is able to recognise and respond correctly to the emotions of others.

An athlete conditions oneself such that the prize is won.
"...run the race in a way that he may WIN the prize.."

淡水河口的夕阳

无意之间听见了陈绮贞的那首《九份的咖啡店》，好有感觉的一首歌。
让我想念起淡水河口的夕阳。。。好想去台湾，好想一个人到那里走一走。

多好的一间事啊！哈哈。。华文真是不好打。。就写到这里吧！

Exams are over.

I always thought it will be great when exams are over.
Thing is when exams are over, life is never gg to slow down.
Not for one second... actually exam life is slow..
The rest of life is much more unpredictable.
True?

Random Ranting

I see visions so mighty
my heart doubts.
so yearning my spirit
my heart sinks.
In fear it sank.
and time passed,
my spirit shall ask,
"where life could be
should one fear not
what lies ahead.
where my heart loves
in his fullness
and the mouth would speak
what I feel
I will tremble
yet I would have
a fearless heart,
and a mighty soul.
Heaven knows
how high the heights
cowards could climb
if he fears not.

I just suddenly thought this to myself,... when was the last timeI really had fun.
And I realised that it was a long time ago. A long long time ago.. so sad..

Having Faith

Having in faith and believing in people is very important.
People who do not believe in themselves have a hard time believing in other people.

Judgment is important.. right judgment is very important.
It is the basis of decisions.

The things we decide upon is very important.
It steers where we are going and e things we speak.

When to do and when not to.
People are mirrors..

Joy

In the process of achieving the goals we set for ourselves, we need to make sacrifices.
For example, if I want to be thinner, I cannot eat supper.

Sacrifices are tough. And some of those sacrifices are not as simple as supper.
One of the more difficult ones would be to make right the relationships in our lives.

The word of God says that it is longer I who lives, but Christ who lives in me.
Sounds great but it means dying over and over again to the flesh.

Just when you thought you have given it all up, growing up requires you give up another of your dearly held beliefs or treasure.

God digs deeper into people. There is no way to survive it without praying. The natural tendency is to walk away from pain.

But we must believe God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. That He is a giver and not a taker.

Then take joy in life and in Him. Only then we can win the prize, that is to reign with Him into eternity.

Once again... this is a difficult to read post.
so.. lol. sorry ah..

Problems

I believe that 80% of the time, a problem is not solved not because we do not have the solution.
80% of the time, we do not solve a problem because we feel that its too big.

Like a friend whom we have not contacted for a long time because of a misunderstanding.

A criticism which came because of a mistake we make.

plus many others.. exams, stress, shame.... even low self esteem, a situation that went out of control.. the main problem is identifying the problem itself.

If you identify it then actually its no problem...

Actually most of the problems we face are as big as we make them out to be.
And usually, the bigger u think the problem is, the more time u take to resolve it.

I learn this by experience, that seriously there are 8 solvable problems out of every 10 we face, even with people.

Its a matter of perspective and faith and of course some brains.

BUT no matter, everything also can one...

yea... Rememeber the stone from the sling that hit the forehead? He did it cos he made it sound so easy to himself and he refuse to listen to losers. Amen. To hell with losers...
