JUST WORDS - 1/12/11

" You cannot make your future perfect if you carry the past mistakes with you, instead learn a lesson from it. Life is too short and temporary... It's like riding a bicycle...to keep your balance, you must keep moving! ...And it's like a journey...always with twists and turns...but how you survived?... moving along steadily, through rough or smooth... only that will determine who you are and will be."

" A winner is actually a loser who never gives up so easily...it's better to spell 'fail' like this F.A.I.L...as First Attempt Is Learning. Don't laugh at those who fail but laugh at those who won't try...the only true failure is when you stop trying. Knowledge talks but wisdom listens and every investments in knowledge always get paid with the best interest. One who fails to listen, will fail to learn. Don't ever let your victories go over your head or it will get swollen... and your failures into your heart or it will just shrink."

"Look before you leap..and if you fall, don't look at where you fell but look at where you slipped.....discover your mistake so think like a man of action and act like a man of thought...never trust anyone completely cause you're bound to be deceive. If you feel you can't lose what you think was meant for you and it somehow slipped away...then it wasn't in your destiny...something better is on the way...be the person who makes the right choices, even when no one is around to watch."

"Don't look in the mirrors to see the future because all you will see is whats behind you. Look at what's in front of you, but not look back or look far into the distance. It's not how it ends that matters, but the journey it takes to get there. Nothing is done for no reason....so, the best person to try to be is yourself....and remember, always keep your friends close but your enemies closer!....it's for the better. There is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path so, never give up on your dreams because someday you might live to regret it."

"Happy marriages begin when we marry the one we love, and they blossom when we love the one we married...and to love someone deeply gives you strength but being loved by someone deeply gives you courage. Many marriages would be better if both, husband and wife understood that they're standing

on the same side....and never laugh at your spouse's choice...because, you're one of them !!

"The only people you need in your life are the ones who need you in theirs...always judge people by what you find them yourself and not be told by others....and any regrets that occur are to be called a lesson learned. Learn form the past, live today happily, think about and build tomorrow wisely. Life is like a jigsaw puzzle...figure out all the pieces and you solved your life!"

FACE IT, DONt FACEBOOK IT!!

Dearest children...

"Sometimes the person who gives you unexplained happiness, will always be the reason for your unexplained sadness...Love feels like heaven but hurts like hell."

"....if you lend someone $20, and never see that person again....then, it's probably worth it !! He's not even worth to be called as 'friend' !! A real 'friend' is the one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out."

"Life is a one way road....where you can look back, but you can't go back !!"

"Don't miss anything!..Work hard because Hard work pays off in the future..."

"Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons because to them...you are crunchy and tasty...good with ketchup...mmmm...yummy !!"

"...if you don't find love...than, let love find you...That's why it's called falling in love cause you don't force yourself to fall...and beauty may capture the eyes but it's the personality that capture the heart !!"

"Sometimes we may get hurt in order to grow...sometimes we may fail in order to know....and sometimes our visions will only be clear after our eyes are washed away with tears..."

"Your heart is not a plaything...your heart is not a toy...but if you want it broken...just give it away and you'll see !"

"Its alright to be...loved by some, hated by many, envied by most....and yet wanted by plenty !!"

"...if you can't see the bright side of life....then polish the dull side....opportunities may always look bigger going than coming..."

"Life is not about how fast you run, or how high you climb...but how well you think. On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the 'Escape' key. "

"...don't think of the past...always choose the future...The past is behind, learn from it..The future is ahead, prepare for it and...The present is now, live it. When one door of happiness closes, another will opens."

"Someday, everything will make perfect sense...so, for now, laugh at the confusion, smile through the tears and keep reminding yourself that whatever happens, happens for a reason."

"...every path has some puddles...The sun won't always shine on you...there'll be some dark clouds passing by."

"...the truth in marriage life is there's everything in it....delicious, horrible, charming, sweet, bitter and more....well, only 'patience' you'll need most along the way...no doubt 'patience' can be bitter...but it will bear sweet fruits."

"..the best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched...but felt with the heart. A successful marriage requires falling in love many many times...and always to the same person."

"Time is a companion that goes with us on our journey...always remind ourselves to cherish every moment because it will never come again. Be happy and faithful to each other...TO LOVE AND BE LOVE."

There are many things that we would throw away, if only we were not afraid that others might pick them up....how selfish and greedy....after all, we are only human (sigh) !!

In three words I can sum up everything I have learned about life.....

Life goes on !!

Be cool...think twice....and act wise...

...love you all forever !!

Here's something else I'd like to share with all ... funny but true !!:

"Where there's a will....most likely, you'll suddenly gain five hundred relatives."

"Everybody wants to go to heaven....but nobody wants to die."

REGARDS FROM THE OVER 30 CROWD-29/11/11

2011-11-29T08:08:00.033+08:00

If you are 30, or older, you might think this is hilarious!

When I was a kid, adults used to bore me to tears with their tedious diatribes about how hard things were. When they were growing up; what with walking twenty-five miles to school every morning.... Uphill.... Barefoot... BOTH ways...yadda, yadda, yadda

And I remember promising myself that when I grew up, there was no way in hell I was going to lay a bunch of crap like that on my kids about how hard I had it and how easy they've got it!

But now that I'm over the ripe old age of thirty, I can't help but look around and notice the youth of today. You've got it so easy! I mean, compared to my childhood, you live in a damn Utopia! And I hate to say it, but you kids today, you don't know how good you've got it!

1) I mean, when I was a kid we didn't have the Internet. If we wanted to know something, we had to go to the damn library and look it up ourselves, in the card catalog!!

2) There was no email!! We had to actually write somebody a letter - with a pen! Then you had to walk all the way across the street and put it in the mailbox, and it would take like a week to get there! Stamps were 10 cents!

3) Child Protective Services didn't care if our parents beat us. As a matter of fact, the parents of all my friends also had permission to kick our ass! Nowhere was safe!

4) There were no MP3's or Napsters or iTunes! If you wanted to steal music, you had to hitchhike to the record store and shoplift it yourself!

5) Or you had to wait around all day to tape it off the radio, and the DJ would usually talk over the beginning and @#*% it all up! There were no CD players! We had tape decks in our car. We'd play our favorite tape and "eject" it when finished, and then the tape would come undone rendering it useless. Cause, hey, that's how we rolled, Baby! Dig?

6) We didn't have fancy crap like Call Waiting! If you were on the phone and somebody else called, they got a busy signal, that's it!

7) There weren't any freakin' cell phones either. If you left the house, you just didn't make a damn call or receive one. You actually had to be out of touch with your "friends". OH MY GOSH !!! Think of the horror... not being in touch with someone 24/7!!! And then there's TEXTING. Yeah, right. Please! You kids have no idea how annoying you are.

8) And we didn't have fancy Caller ID either! When the phone rang, you had no idea who it was! It could be your school, your parents, your boss, your bookie, your drug dealer, the collection agent.... you just didn't know!!! You had to pick it up and take your chances, mister!

9) We didn't have any fancy PlayStation or Xbox video games with high-resolution 3-D graphics! We had the Atari 2600! With games like 'Space Invaders' and 'Asteroids'... Your screen guy was a little square! You actually had to use your imagination!!! And there were no multiple levels or screens, it was just one screen.. Forever! And you could never win. The game just kept getting harder and harder and faster and faster until you died! Just like LIFE!

10) You had to use a little book called a TV Guide to find out what was on! You were screwed when it came to channel surfing! You had to get off your ass and walk over to the TV to change the channel!!! NO REMOTES!!! Oh, no, what's the world coming to?!?!

11) There was no Cartoon Network either! You could only get cartoons on Saturday Morning. Do you hear what I'm saying? We had to wait ALL WEEK for cartoons, you spoiled little rat-bastards!

12) And we didn't have microwaves. If we wanted to heat something up, we had to use the stove! Imagine that!

13) And our parents told us to stay outside and play... all day long. Oh, no, no electronics to soothe and comfort. And if you came back inside... you were doing chores!

And car seats - oh, please! Mom threw you in the back seat and you hung on. If you were lucky, you got the "safety arm" across the chest at the last moment if she had to stop suddenly, and if your head hit the dashboard, well that was your fault for calling "shot gun" in the first place!

See! That's exactly what I'm talking about! You kids today have got it too easy. You're spoiled rotten! You guys wouldn't have lasted five minutes back in 1970 or any time before!

The Over 30 Crowd
