Message for the New Year
I was telling Mum certain challenges I would face at work in the Year 2010. Basically I was whining so much I'm sure mum's ears were probably ringing. *whine whine whine*
Few days later I found this message written in the Kog sent to me:
Lost are many who get mired in the events of daily living
Impossible seems the problems that pile up in Life
Time of distress outshine all happy moments
Only the wise can see and make the balance
Keeping sanity as one plods through the stormy days
Knots of worries wrinkle the mind
Watching this, one must be clear and steady of mind
Always be prepared to let events flow
Into the arena of calmness all too shall eventually flow
I will plod on smilingly and calmly...while keeping my sanity intact

Erm, as to your mum's wishes, I can add a few more 'unsaid' criteria:
ReplyDelete1. Malaysian
2. Professional and well-educated
3. Non-smoker, non-gambler, non-cheater
4. Responsible
I think an ad in the newspapers should do it... :-)
