We live in a world where sometimes things just happen.

When things happen, people often ask "Why did this happen?" They are asking the wrong question.

Asking such questions or blaming others will only make the pain worse.

Instead the real question is, what does He wants us to learn from it.

Because sometimes we do not have the answers to all of life's questions.

The only reason we ask a "why" question, is that we feel we are entitled to have a total understanding for everything.

I dont think we will ever find it out.

No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun. Despite all his efforts to search it out, man cannot discover its meaning.

Even if a wise man claims he knows, he cannot really comprehend it.

But if you ever go along one day without asking "why" and seeing what you can do about things as they are, you will find that it is like being let out of prison.

You can be freed from the fustration.

Recently the days are getting crazy.

Again so many things has happened in the span of three weeks. Somethings i wish i didnt do. Other things which i wish i could re visit the moment and spend all my life doing.

What an irony.

But that's life. In many situations, Opportunity only knocks once, and if you are not up to it, it will slip you by.

I asked God, 'How do I get the best out of life?'

God said, 'Face your past without regrets. Handle your present with confidence. And prepare for the future without fear!'

and we have enough useless blogs, flooding the internet with your typical "i want the world to know what i do everyday/hour/minute" entries.

here's an extract of my public speaking assesment speech (draft) delivered a few months back.

EXTRACT - Clubbing: Source of Entertainment or Entrapment?






COPYRIGHT © LEONG W. J., JARED.



According to a frequent clubber, people go clubbing because it offers a unique experience. Mr Warren Carter an expat wrote in his personal website “Some of these practises include music and dancing. Drinking and getting drunk. Patrons are dressed to kill and leave little to the imagination. Drinks, fun and sex are the goals of many who go clubbing.”


As an ex-clubber myself, I hate to say it but clubbing is actually an avenue where you are at most risk of becoming a victim of crime or worst, a moment of folly that might lead to a lifetime of regret.




So is clubbing really a source of entertainment or is it a source of entrapment?




Today I would tell you the dangers of clubbing and some socially responsible behaviour you should adopt should you intend to go clubbing.

Today i shall talk about my work at KIAN SOON.




i work with screws. yes many type of screws of different sizes..
hahah dont worry its not as messed up as you think.

just recording screw's data, typing its details and labeling. in the simplest terms.




hm my friend 'working hard'..




Warehouse - Good place to relax and maybe day dream.. hahah



Daniel sent me this via MMS on Boss birthday. Boss treated everyone!

hahah got Tom Yam, chicken, fried rice shiok ah.. a pity i took off that day cause it was my birthday too!

as you can see, work's good.

i am blessed with with nice supervisors like AH LUM & Peter, a slacker buddy, Aunty Jenny and friendly colleagues ;)


most of all, as each hour passes, i feel a deep sense of accomplishment inside ;) ;)


######

theres alot of things i wanna say, what i really feel in my heart.

but we are all given a freewill and thats why i dont like imposing my beliefs on others.


maybe i'll shall start wtih one for now.

firstly i believe if you are unhappy with someone or about something, bring it up to the person directly.

talking behind one's back just shows the amount of courage you got, or rather the lack of it.


not implying that anyone's talking bad about me. haha.

yes i admit that at times i am guilty of it too, but as far possible i will be direct with ppl.





they are ppl in the world who just want to put others down.

like pastor df said, they are putting others down in a vain attempt to protect their low self-esteem.

inside they are insecure.

these ppl remarks simply contain little or no truth.

i would dare say that such people are probably just PURE JEALOUS.
