The real meaning of life
Why winning is not everything. Never be happy if you think you have won. Coz it will always come back to bite you. In a win lose relationship, expect to be bitten by the loser when you least expect it. Expect to be haunted by the injustice that others see. Expect jealousy from certain corners. […]
Read More “You lose when you win.”Are we really in pain and suffering that we need a war to stop our pain and suffering. Doesn’t a war create more pain and suffering? Should we not all strive for peace and harmony? Shouldn’t countries settle their differences in a diplomatic manner? Should war even be an option? Perhaps it is time for […]
Read More “Politics should not take precedence over peace and harmony. Is the price of peace and harmony, a war?”Imagine if we use the resources spent on developing weapons and put those resources into improving humanity…. the brain power, the ideas, the money, the raw materials, the man hours…. Imagine if they were used to improve healthcare, increase work efficiency, alleviate poverty, protecting our earth, researching science, what would we have achieved?
Read More “With all those resources spent on weapons, we could have helped a whole community.”It’s amazing how we spend money on defending a nation, but we have no qualms destroying our earth. What nation can we protect if we do not have an earth to live in? What are we then protecting? With all the resources spent on war and defence, can we not use those resources to ensure […]
Read More “Protect earth before we protect our country.”Imagine the homeless man… even if he wanted to get a job, he would never get a chance. There is nowhere he can get a bath to smell clean, no fresh clothes he can wear to look presentable, no fancy resume he can print to impress…. he will forever remain homeless because he will never […]
Read More “The homeless man on the street will never get himself out of poverty.”If everyone had the security of knowing that they have all their basic needs taken care of, would they not find a job they love? Would they then do their job with love and dignity? Would they then not be afraid to stand up for their principles? Perhaps if everyone was assured of a lifetime […]
Read More “If everyone had all that they needed, wouldn’t they do their jobs with love?”I would rather die in an accident then to be left an invalid. If we die, we would not feel the pain and suffering of not being able to move. But if we live on, we would be in pain and suffering for the rest of our lives. Perhaps it’s time to legalise euthanesia?
Read More “Sometimes it is better to die than not to die.”We strive for money, so we can have money to spend on entertainment like drinking, gambling and shopping so as to escape from our daily grind… So why work in the first place? If works causes you so much pain? Why can’t we enjoy the simple things in life and take on a job that […]
Read More “Striving for money sucks.”We could be happy with that new pair of shoes or with that new watch. We could buy over our mates with a few gifts or a free meal. But is that happiness? Would we be happier if someone spent time with us not because of our money but because they love us? Would we […]
Read More “Money only buys temporal happiness.”Not everyone is meant to be a lawyer, doctor or mathematician. Every child has a talent that can be harnessed if we only know how to. Perhaps we can find the next dancer, the next entertainer or even the next Nobel peace prize winner. If only we will let our children explore and develop their […]
