committed workers

committed workers



bad bad ... writing scrappy note during office hours. My fellow co-workers from US may not understand this. For a typical asian office slave, doing something else while sitting in front of office desk is a sin. This would probably similar to the culture difference when I ask if men will happily become house-men and women become the bread-winner.

On the contrary, I personally think it is perfectly okay. However, the societies that I live will not like it. And the question remains how much I would do to please the society and the people. May be it is time to think of changing the society of living in.

Do you agree?

the diving island

It is always in my mind. Some place that one should at least put his/her feet on this island. The sipadan. Unfortunately (?)_ up until now, I have no take any action to do it. It is definitely on any of my priority list.
After japan, korea, or even Shang hai i would say.
The island is really a heaven to divers, and anyone who love love love the crystal clear sea water and cast-away feel from city noise.
My friend got this picture taken : I would believe, as such place, it is time to forget about any unhappy time. The world can be an island if you find the correct place to go.
Sometime I wonder, how much time should I spend to plan for my future life. How much of me should be in the future, how much of me should at the present. You couldn't just live the life now, or live the last minute of current life. It seems to take away all the hopes from you. It also prevent any accumulate efforts that you need for civil success. (in the definition of most people)
To live in future, aka plan well for future. Does it has any similarity to the karma or next-life in Buddism. It is something in the future, where no one knows what would happen.
The person who spends most of his time predicting what would happen, reacting to any signal he sees throught the crystal ball, does not turn out to be the successful one too.
Our capability as a human being is simply too weak.
