life spans

 

 

  On the first day, God created the dog and said:

"Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years."

The dog said: "That's a long time to be barking. How about only ten years and I'll give you back the other ten?"

So God agreed.

On the second day, God created the monkey and said:

"Entertain people, do tricks, and make them laugh. For this, I'll give you a twenty-year life span."

The monkey said: "Monkey tricks for twenty years? That's a pretty long time to perform. How about I give you back ten like the dog did?"

And God agreed.

On the third day, God created the cow and said:

"You must go into the field with the farmer all day long and suffer under the sun, have calves and give milk to support the farmer's family . For this, I will give you a life span of sixty
Years."

The cow said: "That's kind of a tough life you want me to live for sixty years. How about twenty and I'll give back the other forty?"

And God agreed again.

On the fourth day, God created man and said:

"Eat, sleep, play, marry and enjoy your life. For this, I'll give you twenty years."

But man said: "Only twenty years ? Could you possibly give me my twenty, the forty the cow gave back, the ten the monkey gave back, and the ten the dog gave back; that makes eighty, okay?"

"Okay," said God, "You asked for it."

So that is why for our first twenty years we eat, sleep, play and enjoy ourselves. For the next forty years we slave in the sun to support our family. For the next ten years we do monkey tricks to entertain the grandchildren. And for the last ten years we sit on the front porch and bark at everyone.

words for thoughts

Watch your thoughts ; they become words.
Watch your words
; they become actions.
Watch your actions
; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character
.
Watch your character; it becomes
your destiny.

"The Future Belongs To Those Who Believe In The Beauty Of Their Dreams" 
 

Live a balanced life

A long time ago, there was an Emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he likes, then the Emperor would give him the area of land he has covered.
Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop
because he wanted to cover as much area as possible.
Came to a point when he had covered a substantial area and he was exhausted and was dying. Then he asked himself, "Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying 
and I only need a very small area to bury myself."
The above story is similar with the journey of our Life. We push very hard everyday to make more money, to gain power and recognition. We neglect our health , time with our family 
and to appreciate the surrounding beauty and the hobbies we love.
One day when we look back , we will realize that we don't really need that much, but then we cannot turn back time
for what we have missed.
Life is not about making money, acquiring power or recognition . Life is definitely not about work! Work is only necessary to keep us living so as to enjoy the beauty and pleasures of life. You
dont need to WORK too hard to be at the top, take it easy and always think of others. Life is a balance of Work and Play , Family and Personal time .. You have to decide how you want to balance your Life. Define your priorities, realize what you are able to compromise but always let some of your decisions be based on your instincts. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of Life, the whole aim of human existence.
So, take it easy, do what you want to do and appreciate nature.
Life is fragile , Life is short. Do not take Life for granted. Live a balanced lifestyle and enjoy
Life!

谈论 when words aren't enough

 

i started to write for you today
but the words got caught in my throat
the way my breath leaves me
when i whisper your name
or when you tell me you love me

because you leave me breathless
and then breathe back into me
love

there are no words for what (you are) to me
what you mean to me
in this moment in time
and for the rest of our lives

phrases just scratched out
that don't even speak to the way
you fill me with life
you make me shine
you polish my soul
into something more beautiful
yes
i'm beautiful
i think
because of you

when my words fall short
and my tongue can't speak
carve my heart into your hands
and feel me
let your heart be quiet in this still night
and listen
because i think i can say so much more
when we don't speak
and i can hear so much more
when i let myself fall into you

broken
torn
mended
breathless
amazed
awestruck

(simply let me say)
i am
in love
with you

谈论 Thinking of you

 

引用

Thinking of you
It’s painfully beautiful,
to close my eyes and think of you,
wishing you were with me now.

the wind kisses my cheek,
in a soft and secret caress
bringing the pleasure and pain,
of Love's lost embrace.

Somewhere under the same sky,
you might be laying awake...
thinking of me-like I'm thinking of you.

Wrapped in you
I am lost in memory,
and kept awake by your voice
echoing across the void.

against my better judgement
i need to believe,
that i love you not in vain.

more than ever,
i need to feel you again,
under twilight's endless abyss,
i can still feel you haunt me.

谈论 To think

 

引用

To think

Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow.

Don't walk behind me, I may not lead.

Just walk beside me and be my friend.
