Process Vs End Result

Which is more important?
Are u a happy person?

Reflecting back, I discover that happiness comes from enjoying the process and not focuz just on the end result.

End Result many times does not justify our effort put in.
In another words, think about ur life.
Are u enjoying what u are doing right now?
Or r u worrying abt the result that u missed out the present moment?

Like in a relationship many worry if they will be happily ever after, that they missed out the happiest moment now, which is in their hand.

Since Future can only be planned and need to be planned but its unforeseen, why not we treasure and enjoy the present.

I have no regret abt the past, even tho things didn't turn out the way I wanted, be it for relationship or work, but I am happy because I did what I wanted, which in fact is the most important thing.

Being able to love someone, something and doing what you wanted is far more important than the returns you get, since returns is never in our hand.

It took me a long time to figure out this equation of happiness.

Happiness is doing what makes you happy and not whether or not you will get in return what you put in.
The return of you put in is the bonus in your life.

Philosophy

Read this on my friend's blog...

Feel that its really meaningful..
So here it is...for u..

Personal Philosophy is Like the Set of the Sail by Jim Rohn

In the process of living, the winds of circumstances blow on us all in an unending flow that touches each of our lives.

We have all experienced the blowing winds of disappointment, despair and heartbreak. Why, then, would each of us, in our own individual ship of life, all beginning at the same point, with the same intended destination in mind, arrive at such different places at the end of the journey? Have we not all been blown by the winds of circumstances and buffeted by the turbulent storms of discontent?

What guides us to different destinations in life is determined by the way we have chosen to set our sail. The way that each of us thinks makes the major difference in where each of us arrive. The major difference is the set of the sail.

The same circumstances happen to us all. We have disappointments and challenges. We all have reversals and those moments when, in spite of our best plans and efforts, things just seem to fall apart. Challenging circumstances are not events reserved for the poor, the uneducated or the destitute. The rich and the poor have marital problems. The rich and the poor have the same challenges that can lead to financial ruin and personal despair. In the final analysis, it is not what happens that determines the quality of our lives, it is what we choose to do when we have struggled to set the sail and then discover, after all of our efforts, that the wind has changed directions.

When the winds change, we must change. We must struggle to our feet once more and reset the sail in the manner that will steer us toward the destination of our own deliberate choosing. The set of the sail, how we think and how we respond, has a far greater capacity to destroy our lives than any challenges we face. How quickly and responsibly we react to adversity is far more important than the adversity itself. Once we discipline ourselves to understand this, we will finally and willingly conclude that the great challenge of life is to control the process of our thinking.

Learning to reset the sail with the changing winds rather than permitting ourselves to be blown in a direction we did not purposely choose requires the development of a whole new discipline. It involves going to work on establishing a powerful, personal philosophy that will help to influence in a positive way all that we do and that we think and decide. If we can succeed in this worthy endeavor, the result will be a change in the course of our income, lifestyle and relationships, and in how we feel about the things of value as well as the times of challenge. If we can alter the way we perceive, judge and decide upon the main issues of life, then we can dramatically change our lives.

Battery Flat

Yesterday my Hp battery was totally flat.
My godson's mum Sandra tried calling me entire day couldn't reach me,
till she recall my house number and called me while they were already at the airport,
which I promised to send them off..

But it was too late..

Gosh!!! I still have those lunchboxes which I bought for them..
couldn't pass it to them..

And she had lots of things for me and our friends..at her sister in law place..
No choice, can't rush to send them off..

Oh really missed them..
Kind of sad..

we already still missing each other before she step into the Plane..
as usual..we tried to control our emotion..

I guess its good..
if not she will cry I guess..hee..(I am often the stronger one to hide such a feeling..Can u imagine if your friend is crying and you start to cry..you all will end up crying even more 'heavily'.

Each depart between me and my buddies often ended up with tears..
even the man who seems strong..when facing moments like this...tho trying hard to
hide..its not hard to tell at moments like this.

Dear I already start missing you guys already..
Too bad din get to hear Eugene calling me 'gan ma' before he fly back to Melbourne :(
Hopefully..I will have chance to visit with stay over at your place in Melbourne soon..tho might be difficult at this period when I had to study and work..

With lots of loves, hugs and kisses,
Angeline

Address=Relationship status

How do you address your love ones?
Honey? Baby? Darling? Sweetie?

I was talking to a few friends...
they were telling me how their partners call/address them...

Their partners or even they themselve call their partners funny names..
like piggy..lazybone.fatty..old woman, old man..etc..

What do you call your partner?

Many call the woman or man they love 'honey' 'baby' 'BB' 'Darling' etc...before they get married or attached...

As times goes by..sweet names seems to vanish into the air..
Replaced by these 'funny' names instead..

How about you?

Today in church, we were reminded..how we address our God during our prayer show how is our relationship God during each stage of our life.
This I agree.

E.g if you are experiencing lots of grace from God..
you often will start your prayer as "Our gracious Father in Heaven..."
If you experience that God is in control in your life and how powerful is God in your life, you probably start your prayer as "Dear Lord Almighty.."
etc..
This is a good sign..rather than to keep your prayer forever as a memorised format..

Next time as you are praying...check out how your begin your prayer..and you will know how is your relationship with God at this moment..

"Have a blessed week ahead!"

Difficult times

Today I was reminded during the service in church..
that Difficult times are often the source of our sorrows & pain..

But...did you realise that Difficult times are in fact also the source of our joy, that is of course if you managed to pull yourself thru the difficult times..

I totally agree.

Difficult times are there to mould us into stronger people, stronger character, to appreciate what we have, understand the important of life and finally..to give thanks and gain the source of joy!

Remember, everything happens for a reason out of God's love for us.
Take time and think about it!

There is always two sides of a coin. How you wanted feel is your matter of choice and perspective.

Like a white piece of paper...do you want to focus on that small black dot on the paper..or...
do you want to focuz on the white piece of paper.

Be Positive!
Jesus loves you!

Lord I thank you for everything!

A good repentance story!

One day a while back, a man, his heart heavy with grief, was walking in the woods. As he thought about his life this day, he knew many things were not right. He thought about those who had lied about him back when he had a job.

His thoughts turned to those who had stolen his things and cheated him. He remembered family that had passed on. His mind turned to the illness he had, that no one could cure. His very soul was filled with anger, resentment, and frustration.

Standing there this day, searching for answers he could not find, knowing all else had failed him, he knelt at the base of an old oak tree to seek the one he knew would always be there. And with tears in his eyes, he prayed:

'Lord- You have done wonderful things for me in this life. You have told me to do many things for you, and I happily obeyed. Today, you have told me to forgive. I am sad, Lord, because I cannot, I don't know how. It is not fair Lord, I didn't deserve these wrongs that were done against me and I shouldn't have to forgive. As perfect as your way is Lord, this one thing I cannot do, for I don't know how to forgive. My anger is so deep Lord, I fear I may not hear you, but I pray you teach me to do the one thing I cannot do: Teach me to forgive .'

As he knelt there in the quiet shade of that old oak tree, he felt something fall onto his shoulder. He opened his eyes. Out of the corner of one eye, he saw something red on his shirt.. He could not turn to see what it was because where the oak tree had been was a large square piece of wood in the ground. He raised his head and saw two feet held to the wood with a large spike through them.

He raised his head more, and tears came to his eyes as he saw Jesus hanging on a cross. He saw spikes in His hands, a gash in His side, a torn and battered body, deep thorns sunk into His head. Finally he saw the suffering and pain on His precious face. As their eyes met, the man's tears turned to sobbing, and Jesus began to speak.

'Have you ever told a lie?' He asked?
The man answered - 'Yes, Lord.'
'Have you ever been given too much change and kept it?'
The man answered - 'Yes. Lord.' And the man sobbed more and more.
'Have you ever taken something from work that wasn't yours?' Jesus asked?
And the man answered, 'Yes, Lord.'
'Have you ever sworn, using my Father's name in vain?'
The man, crying now, answered - 'Yes, Lord.'
As Jesus asked many more times, 'Have you ever'? The man's crying became uncontrollable, for he could only answer - 'Yes, Lord'.

Then Jesus turned His head from one side to the other, and the man felt something fall on his other shoulder He looked and saw that it was the blood of Jesus. When he looked back up, his eyes met those of Jesus, and there was a look of love the man had never seen or known before.

Jesus said, 'I didn't deserve this either, but I forgive you.'

It may be hard to see how you're going to get through something, but when you look back in life, you realize how true this statement is.

Read the following first line slowly and let it sink in.

If God brings you to it - He will bring you through it.

When Jesus died on the cross, he was thinking of you!
