MICROWAVING WATER

MICROWAVING WATER❌

IMPORTANT must read.

A 26-year old man decided to have a cup of coffee. He took a cup of water and put it in the microwave to heat it up (something that he had done numerous times before). I am not sure how long he set the timer for, but he wanted to bring the water to a boil.  When the timer shut the oven off, he removed the cup from the oven. As he looked into the cup, he noted that the water was not boiling, but suddenly the water in the cup 'blew up' into his face. The cup remained intact until he threw it out of his hand, but all the water had flown out into his face due to the build-up of energy. His  whole face is blistered and he has 1st and 2nd degree burns to his face which may leave scarring.

He also may have lost partial sight in his left eye. While at the hospital, the doctor who was attending to him stated that this is a fairly common occurrence and water (alone) should never be heated in a microwave oven.

General  Electric's Response:
Thanks for contacting us; I will be happy to assist you. The e-mail that you received is correct. Microwaved water and other liquids do not always bubble when they reach boiling point. They can actually get superheated, and not bubble at all. The superheated liquid will bubble up out of the  cup - when it is moved, or when something like a spoon or tea bag is put into it.

To prevent this from happening and causing injury, do not heat any liquid for more than two minutes per cup. After heating, let the cup stand in the microwave for thirty seconds be fore moving it or adding anything into it.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL
Using Telephone in the Darkness.
FORWARDED AS RECEIVED!!

My younger brother Dr Justice Arthur, who's a medical officer at Cape Coast hospital ( Bakkano) appealed to me to share this post with you. He says its very important.

Pls do not ignore or delay reading this:

When lights are off at night, one must not view the hand phone! (Smartphone)

Please share with family friends URGENTLY.....

Habitually using hand phones before bedtime in the dark can lead to serious problems.

Recently, an increasing number of 30-40 year-old patients are seeking medical attention due to using hand phones in the dark.

Professor Li Li, director of the Hospital of Ophthalmology SGH Singapore, said: direct glare of >30 minutes would cause irreversible eye macular degeneration that leads to rapid deterioration of vision.

Contracting maculopathy (eye cancer) means waiting for loss of sight because modern medicine cannot treat, let alone cure it.
The bright phone in the dark with close-up view high-energy directed at the eyes will damage the macula of the eye.

Professor Li Li said that symptoms of macular degeneration is mostly experienced by old people, but lately patients are getting younger. Patients who are 30-40 years of age increased by 3 %, most are frequent users of hand phones.

However, viewing the hand phone in the dark not only causes macular degeneration. It initially causes dry eyes, cataracts and eventually loss of sight.

Early lesions of the eye have to be treated with laser or injection of steroids.

254 Hospital eye specialist Professor Li Li suggested that the most important thing is to get rid of the bad habit of using hand phones in the dark. Because habitual use of hand phones in the dark b4 bedtime may cause a lifetime of harm.

Friends : In order to look after ourselves and our families, remember not to turn off the lights if viewing the hand phone. Inform hand phone users urgently that viewing hand phones in the dark can easily lead to loss of sight!

BE HAPPY

I really liked this msg!
Pls share ... 🤗

During a class at Fresno Pacific University, a speaker asked one of the spouses in the audience:

"Does your husband make you happy?"

At this moment, the husband stood up straighter, showing complete confidence. He knew his wife would say yes, because she had never complained about anything during their marriage.

However, his wife answered the question with a resounding "No." "No, my husband does not make me happy."

The husband was baffled, but his wife continued:

"My husband never made me happy, and he does not make me happy. I am happy."

"Whether I am happy or not is dependent not on him, but on me. I am the only person on whom my happiness depends.

I choose to be happy in every situation and every moment of my life, for if my happiness depended on another person, thing or circumstance, I would be in serious trouble.

Everything that exists in this life constantly changes: the human being, the riches, my body, the climate, my boss, the pleasures, the friends, and my physical and mental health. I could quote an endless list.

I need to decide to be happy regardless of anything else that happens. Whether I own a lot or a little, I am happy! Whether I'm going out or staying home alone, ​​I'm happy! Whether I am rich or poor, I am happy!

I am married, but I was already happy when I was single.
I'm happy for myself.

I love my life not because my life is easier than anyone else's, but because I have decided to be happy as an individual. I am responsible for my happiness.

When I take this obligation from my husband and anyone else, I free them from the burden of carrying me on their shoulders. It makes everyone's life much lighter.

And that's how I've had a successful marriage for so many years."

Never give anyone else the responsibility to control your happiness. Be happy, even if it's hot, even if you're sick, even if you do not have money, even if someone has hurt you, even if someone does not love you and even if you do not value yourself.

That goes for women and men of all ages 🌼
🌺 Be Happy 🌺

Poem In Washington Post on China

Poem In Washington Post on China

轟動全球華人圈的一首詩，
國人看後沸騰，西方看後沉默⋯

美籍華裔物理學榮譽教授林良多在美國《華盛頓郵報》上發表了一首英文詩《你們究竟要我們怎樣生存？ 》


全詩原文：(英文詩下面有中文翻譯）

The Poem by an American Chinese Physics Professor Lin Liang Duo in Washington Post entitled 'How you want us to survive ?' ..…

When we were the Sick Man of Asia, We were called The Yellow Peril.

When we are billed to be the next Superpower, we are called The Threat.

When we closed our doors, you smuggled drugs to open markets.

When we embrace Free Trade, You blame us for taking away your jobs.

When we were falling apart, You marched in your troops and wanted your fair share.

When we tried to put the broken pieces back together again, Free Tibet you screamed, It Was an Invasion!

When tried Communism, you hated us for being Communist.

When we embrace Capitalism, you hate us for being Capitalist.

When we have a billion people, you said we were destroying the planet.

When we tried limiting our numbers, you said we abused human rights.

When we were poor, you thought we were dogs.

When we loan you cash, you blame us for your national debts.

When we build our industries, you call us Polluters.

When we sell you goods, you blame us for global warming.

When we buy oil, you call it exploitation and genocide.

When you go to war for oil, you call it liberation.

When we were lost in chaos and rampage, you demanded rules of law.

When we uphold law and order against violence, you call it violating human rights.

When we were silent, you said you wanted us to have free speech.

When we are silent no more, you say we are brainwashed -xenophobics.

Why do you hate us so much, we asked.
No, you answered, we don’t hate you.

We don’t hate you either, But, do you understand us?

Of course we do, you said, We have AFP, CNN and BBC’s… What do you really want from us?

Think hard first, then answer… Because you only get so many chances.

Enough is Enough, Enough Hypocrisy for This One World.

We want One World, One Dream, and Peace on Earth.

This Big Blue Earth is Big Enough for all of Us.

以下為中文版：

「你究竟要我們怎樣生存」

我們是東亞病夫時！我們被說是黃禍;

我們被預言是下一個超級大國了！
我們被指是主要威脅。

那時我們閉關自守！你走私鴉片來強開門戶;

我們擁抱自由貿易了！你責罵我們搶走你的飯碗。

那時我們風雨飄搖！你鐵蹄犯境要求機會均等;

我們要整合破碎的山河！你說我們“入侵”……

我們試行馬列救國！你痛恨我們成為異己分子;

我們擁抱資本主義了！你又恨我們當了資本家。

當我們的人口到達十億！你說我們在摧毀地球;

我們要限制人口了！你說我們踐踏人權。

那時我們一貧如洗！你視我們賤如狗;

我們有鈔票借給你了！你怨我們令你國債累累。

我們發展工業了！你說我們是污染者;

我們有貨品賣給你了！你說我們是地球暖化的因由。

我們購買石油！你說我們榨取兼滅族;

你們為石油開戰！你說是為了解救生靈。

那時我們動亂無序！你說我們沒有法治;

現在我們要依法平暴！你說我們違反人權。

我們靜默無聲時！你說我們欠缺言論自由;

我們不再緘默！你說我們是被洗了腦的仇外暴民。

為什麼你這樣憎恨我們? 我們想知道。

“不”，你說，“我不恨你們。”

我們也不恨你！只是，你了解我們嗎?

“當然了解”，你說。 “我們消息多的是，有 AFP、CNN、還有BBC……”

那麼你究竟要我們怎樣生存?

回答之前，請仔細的想一想……因為你的機會不是無限的。

已經夠多了……這個世界容不下更多的偽善了。

我們要的是同一個世界，同一個夢想，靖世太平。

這個寬廣、遼闊的藍地球，容得下你們，容得下我們。

Self-Propelled Howitzer,

When I was serving the country as a soldier, I served in Control of Personnel Centre. During my stint, I received awards for productivity and process improvements signed by the then Chief of Army and also Dr Yeo Ning Hong.

Now I am serving as a Practising Management Consultant certified by a Board closely related to the government. My job concerns the design of management and operations systems for companies. The principles of business management & designing operating procedures for these tanks are the same.

When I am looking at the design of the Self-Propelled Howitzer, I would tell you that the design is inherently dangerous and no amount of SOP design / redesign is going to change the fact that this is a dangerous vehicle.

1) In the press conference, one officer mentioned that CFC Pang could not get away in time. That is nonsense, that space should not be occupied at any point of time. Given that all the potential movement of the turret would crush anyone who is there, that space should be blocked off and only to be accessed (if ever) during repairs.

2) I remember some officer mentioned that "usually most people would not have problem". That is one sure way of pointing the blame at CFC Pang. That is nonsense.

I was not trained to be operating the Howitzer gun, so let me just exercise my commonsense a bit. Did the tank even take into account of the recoil effect when the turret is firing? To take into account of the recoil effect all the space behind the turret cannot be used at all and access blocked off saved for maintenance purposes.

3) One officer even mentioned that there is a procedure to sound an alarm or informing when the turret is moving. This is again nonsense, if CFC Pang is repairing the turret, he must be the one who can decide when the machine can be used.

A few of my peers who are in workplace safety has mentioned this practice known as LOTO (Lock out tag out) system, in which no officer of any rank should be able to override to operate the machine when there is a soldier repairing the machine.

The design of the turret is from ground up, wrong, and let's not mince words. When the design of the system is wrong, no amount of SOP nonsense would be able to compensate for an inherently dangerous design.

All management consultants would be schooled in Deming Principle - when there is an operational problem, 94% of the time you can find fault with the systems and only 6% of the time the error is human.

Just basing on prima facie analysis of the design of the system, I am sorry the fault is with the design, so the fault is with the designer of the system and if the system is not locally designed the fault is with the person approving the purchase of this system.

Do not let SAF explain their way out of this. I am very infuriated by the press conference they have conducted. While they expressed their condolences, they did not take full responsibility for this.

All the other accidents I can explain away with logic and probability (like allergy to smoke bombs and stuff). This is totally avoidable and I want to see Singapore Armed Forces take full responsibility in this.

There is no way I can logically explain this away.

Neither Civil Nor Servant

Former EDB Chairman Philip Yeo’s latest biography sheds light on leadership pitfalls

6-Feb-2017: http://thepeakmagazine.com.sg/interviews/former-edb-chairman-philip-yeos-latest-book-sheds-light-leadership-pitfalls

Through 10 interviews with Philip Yeo, and 40 with those who’ve worked with him or known him, readers will gain an insight into the heady days of Singapore’s early nation-building.

# 1  What is the rationale behind your firing-squad approach to managers?

Like Dr Goh (Keng Swee), I don’t believe people can change. So the best way to change an organisation is to burn it down and start afresh. That means I sack the whole lot of managers. In every organisation, there are three types of people: the emperors at the top, the workers at the bottom, and the eunuchs in the middle. The ruler says, “I want my pyramid,” and the workers are the people who build it. The eunuchs are the ones who shuffle papers. They don’t do any real work. Their objectives are to keep the emperor happy. How to do that? Keep the emperor entertained or distract him with other preoccupations. Eunuchs destroy empires. It was true in China and also in the West. The Ottoman Empire was brought down by eunuchs too. All they did was create problems between the emperors and the commanders who did real work out in the battlefields.

# 2  Who are the eunuchs in the Singapore context?

We call them “staffers”. I advise CEOs and top civil servants to go into the field, visit the companies and spend time with the workers. But many still prefer to hold meetings and presentations. They create another layer and it is a layer filled with staffers. Soon, the leader will be infected with eunuch disease.

# 3  What is eunuch disease?

It is when a leader surrounds himself with staffers and he becomes increasingly isolated. It is a common cancer in pyramidal organisations. The best organisation structure is flat. If I’m the emperor, I would want to see the generals myself. Increasingly, the emperors in Singapore do not see their generals because there are so many layers.

# 4  How did Singapore get to this stage? Is it because as society becomes more developed, it requires a more complex governance structure?

No, it’s how the leadership has evolved. There are so many papers which need to be submitted, and then summarised for the management. Why can’t the leader read the paper himself? Dr Goh used to demand that a paper be no longer than one page and it must be written in simple English. He always said: short and sharp. If you cannot tell me in one page or in five minutes, it means you have no clarity of thought. I have no patience because a damn idiot wants to write his grandmother’s story.

# 5  Is this a result of how talent is recruited?

The organisation wants stability. There must be a balance with some turmoil. If it is all stability, it gets really boring and a maverick won’t want it. He will run away. You will get people who are honest and respectable, but you won’t get mavericks. These are the people who follow rules – “Yes, Sir, I will do this.” They are your obedient kids in schools and teachers like them. They grow up to be good eunuchs. They sit down and don’t move around. They are better than the guy who cannot sit still, the kind who has an itchy backside and will get into trouble. I used to get into trouble in school. I finished my work fast and I made noise in class. The teacher made me stand at the blackboard. I’m happy to stand. Better than sitting in the stupid chair.

# 6  How much of this increasing bureaucratisation is seen in Singapore today?

The management is too involved in day-to-day matters. They become administrators rather than leaders. Let me tell you a story. When Lee Kuan Yew was in charge, he called me to Istana one day. He was still Prime Minister and I was EDB chairman. I sat down. It was just the two of us. “Can you bring investments to Woodlands?” he asked me. “Can you put an MRT station there?” I replied. Finished. I walked out. Our conversation lasted less than a minute. I knew he called the Minister of Communications right away and said that Woodlands must get an MRT station. I quickly got TECH (Texas Instruments, EDB, Canon and Hewlett-Packard – Semiconductors) to get set up in Woodlands, way before the MRT station was even up. I pushed for projects to go to Woodlands. I didn’t write a memo. I didn’t have to answer him on how we were going to do it. He took my word and I took his word. He wanted something and I delivered.

Today, ministers overwork – doing everything and appearing everywhere. When there were issues with CPF, the minister answered. Where was the CPF chairman? When the trains broke down, the minister answered. Where was the SMRT chairman? In the past, the civil servants would take charge. Now, the Admin Officers are quiet. That is a sad thing. In my time, permanent secretaries were permanent in their postings. Today, we should call them “temporary secretaries” because they get rotated every few years. There’s no reservoir of experience… they are constantly rotated and they have no depth.

# 7  How does this contrast with the Old Guard leaders?

The Old Guards were politicians. They built a nation from next to nothing. They didn’t care about the nitty gritty. Just get the bloody job done. Bring in investments, create jobs, build up an army. They didn’t have time to discuss with you “on the one hand and on the other hand”. They sketched the big picture, they told you what they wanted and they left you alone to do it. It’s based on trust.

# 8  Do you think Singapore can remain exceptional?

It depends on exceptional people who’re willing to serve. It’s up to the present leadership and the future generation. I’m concerned about Singapore’s economy. What’s the next engine of our growth? Is it tourism? But do you create good jobs with tourism? You don’t need highly qualified people. All you need is a tour guide. Look at Formula One. For a few days, all the chauffeured cars and the hotels are occupied. It’s like the Singapore Airshow. It’s a one-week event and the tourists leave after that. These are not sustainable, everyday industries. These are icing on the cake. So far, I haven’t seen anything new that can create good and sustainable jobs. After biomedical sciences, what’s next? Space? What are we selling to our young people? What’s the new dream? It is a harder job today for EDB. But we must keep trying.

# 9  How do you think you will be remembered in Singapore?

Not my problem.

Between age 52 and death.

Very useful to read.. We must learn too..🚩Between age 52 and death. It’s time to use the money you saved up. Use it and enjoy it.  Don’t just keep it for those who may have no notion of the sacrifices you made to get it. Remember there is nothing more dangerous than a son or daughter-in-law with big ideas for your hard-earned capital.

🚩Warning: This is also a bad time for investments, even if it seems wonderful or fool-proof. They only bring problems and worries. This is a time for you to enjoy some peace and quiet.

🚩Stop worrying about the financial situation of your children and grandchildren, and don’t feel bad spending your money on yourself. You’ve taken care of them for many years, and you’ve taught them what you could. You gave them an education, food, shelter and support. The responsibility is now theirs to earn their own money.

🚩Keep a healthy life, without great physical effort. Do moderate exercise (like walking every day), eat well and get your sleep. It’s easy to become sick, and it gets harder to remain healthy. That is why you need to keep yourself in good shape and be aware of your medical and physical needs. Keep in touch with your doctor, do tests even when you’re feeling well. Stay informed.

🚩Always buy the best, most beautiful items for your significant other. The key goal is to enjoy your money with your partner. One day one of you will miss the other, and the money will not provide any comfort then, enjoy it together.

 🚩Don’t stress over the little things. You’ve already overcome so much in your life. You have good memories and bad ones, but the important thing is the present. Don’t let the past drag you down and don’t let the future frighten you. Feel good in the now. Small issues will soon be forgotten.

🚩Regardless of age, always keep love alive. Love your partner, love life, love your family, love your neighbor and remember: “A man is not old as long as he has intelligence and affection.”

🚩Be proud, both inside and out. Don’t stop going to your hair salon or barber, do your nails, go to the dermatologist and the dentist, keep your perfumes and creams well stocked. When you are well-maintained on the outside, it seeps in, making you feel proud and strong.

🚩Don’t lose sight of fashion trends for your age, but keep your own sense of style. You’ve developed your own sense of what looks good on you – keep it and be proud of it. It’s part of who you are.

🚩ALWAYS stay up-to-date. Read newspapers, watch the news. Go online and read what people are saying. Make sure you have an active email account and try to use some of those social networks. You’ll be surprised what old friends you’ll meet.

🚩Respect the younger generation and their opinions. They may not have the same ideals as you, but they are the future, and will take the world in their direction. Give advice, not criticism, and try to remind them that yesterday’s wisdom still applies today.
 Never use the phrase: “In my time.” Your time is now. As long as you’re alive, you are part of this time.

🚩Some people embrace their golden years, while others become bitter and surly. Life is too short to waste your days on the latter. Spend your time with positive, cheerful people, it’ll rub off on you and your days will seem that much better. Spending your time with bitter people will make you feel older and harder to be around.

🚩Do not surrender to the temptation of living with your children or grandchildren (if you have a financial choice, that is). Sure, being surrounded by family sounds great, but we all need our privacy. They need theirs and you need yours.  Even then, do so only if you feel you really need the help or do not want to live  by yourself

🚩Don’t abandon your hobbies. If you don’t have any, make new ones. You can travel, hike, cook, read, dance. You can adopt a cat or a dog, grow a kitchen  garden, play cards, checkers, chess, dominoes, golf.

🚩Try to go. Get out of the house, meet people you haven’t seen in a while, experience something new (or something old). The important thing is to leave the house from time to time. Go to museums, go walk through a park. Get out there.

🚩Speak in courteous tones and try not to complain or criticize too much unless you really need to. Try to accept situations as they are.

🚩Pains and discomfort go hand in hand with getting older. Try not to dwell on them but accept them as a part of the life.

🚩If you’ve been offended by someone – forgive them. If you’ve offended someone - apologize. Don’t drag around resentment with you. It only serves to make you sad and bitter. It doesn’t matter who was right. Someone once said: “Holding a grudge is like taking poison and expecting the other person to die.” Don’t take that poison. Forgive, forget and move on with your life.

🚩Laugh. Laugh away your worries  Remember, you are one of the lucky ones. You managed to have a life, a long one. Many never get to this age, never get to experience a full life.

Most Singaporeans can't think.

Most Singaporeans can't think. Isn’t this a dangerous problem?

By By Shibani Mahtani and Sam Holmes

Steve Wozniak of Apple said this. I have said this. Many Singaporeans/people who have spent time living overseas have said this.

And before anyone says I'm a foreigner, i'm not. I'm as Singaporean as Rojak. But I was educated largely overseas, and it's quite sad that whilst many Singaporeans who've never lived away for any amount of time can't seem to see this, - Singaporeans can't think. How so, you ask? I've tried to put it into these areas.

1. They can only talk about their majors, what they learnt in school, food and shopping. I can't tell you how many times non-Singaporeans have complained to me that they can't seem to talk anything in depth with most Singaporeans. They often don't understand how educated people who have uni degrees can only seem to talk about what they studied, and nothing more about worldly issues or anything different. "Try asking a Singaporean about what their passion in life is, and you'll get a cold stare, cos they weren't taught what their passion should be in school. If something is not dictated to them, they won't know what they should answer." - One American friend told me. It was impossible for me to disagree.

2. In school, or even uni, they are only interested in learning something if it is going to turn up in the exam. An acquaintance who's a lecturer told me if whatever she sets as reading doesn't get 'tested' or appear in the exam, the students have the gall to tell her she wasted their time! This lecturer was floored that to Singaporean uni students something inadvertently learnt can be thought of as 'wasted'!

3. Even for those who 'forgive' LKY for locking up communist leaders in the past, in order to push his agenda to the people, - because Singapore turned out so good, they take it as LKY knew better than them. It's once again the "I can't think, so someone (LKY) did it for me. Thank you, thank you!" kind of attitude which you find behind those wanting restrictions on free speech, tighter controls on opinions, more nannying by the Singapore govt etc. Why are most Singaporeans so scared to think? Are they scared they'll think 'wrong'? For example in the past when they thought communism was the way to go - how 'wrong' and 'unthinking' they were and how lucky for them the brainy LKY came along and jailed all the bad communists. Are we breeding Singaporeans who are scared to think in case it's 'wrong'? Or are we breeding Singaporeans who can no longer think because from school days to the govt policies, they've always been told how and what to think? What happens when Singaporeans can't and don't think and depend on the govt to think for them? Isn't this a dangerous problem, and how does society move forward and how does innovation and creativity emerge when Singaporeans don't and can't think anymore?

Huawei

謝招福 Xie Zhaofu

Do you know why the United States is killing Huawei? Look at the data below and you will understand:

Huawei employs more than 10,000 Phd degree holders as well as many talented Russian mathematicians.

Do you know how many Huawei's employees earned more than 1 million a year? More than 10,000 people.

Do you know how many Huawei's employees earned more than 5 million a year? More than 1000 people!

In China alone, Huawei's research and development expenditure was  89.6 billion.

Among the Big Three, Alibaba employ 30,000 people, Baidu 50,000, Tencent about 30,000, a total of 110,000, but Huawei's global employees total 170,000!

Alibaba's profit is 23.4 billion, Tencent 24.2 billion, Baidu 10.5 billion, and their profits total 58 billion, but 70% is taken away by foreigners. Since 2000, Huawei has earned 1.39 trillion yuan from abroad.

For taxation, Tencent paid more than 7 billion yuan a year, Alibaba 10.9 billion yuan, and Baidu 2.2 billion. Huawei paid 33.7 billion yuan which is more than their total!

Huawei is a high-tech company, and technology represents the true strength of a country. In China, many companies can't last long, because there are always other companies ready replace them soon, but Huawei is irreplaceable!

Huawei is a 100% Chinese company that has not been listed and does not intend to go public because of susceptibility to be  controlled by capital (which the United States can simply print money to do it).

Why is the name Huawei? Hua(華:China) (can do anything, everything:為)!

Huawei is the first private technology company in China ever to join the league of the world's top 100. Chinese should be proud of  Huawei!

Nursery rhyme

Nursery rhyme for coming  Singapore GE

Ding dong bell
The people are in the well
Who pushed them in?
Former army men in green

But why are they wearing white?

Because they don't know how to fight

They don't even know
how to train

Making NS men die in vain

But do they know how to rule?

When all dey say is "Yes Sir, Yes Sir 3 bags full"

Making us look like bloody fools.

So what can u do u poor frogs in the well?

The water is boiling hot like hell.

Wages stagnant inflation High

Inequality rises to the sky

CPF is stuck there till u you die

Retirement is but a pie the sky

If you don't Unite you're going to die

You must stand on each other's back

Join your hands and make a pact

Vote any party but the PAP

Listen to the men in blue

Harken to The People's voice

Progress the Party You have a choice

And if Cheng Bock comes knocking on your door...

With Soon Juan, Lim Tean
Ah Yang
or Ah Mao

Bid them welcome And don't be cowed.

Have a chat
n give them a  pat

You must be brave to bell the Cat

Or else they will get too fat

And fat cats as you know catch no rats.

You will end up without a flat.

The End

博士也好，賣菜也好。       
長大以後，心安就好。
房屋大小，能住就好。       
名不名牌，能穿就好。
兩輪四輪，能駕就好。       
老闆不好，能忍就好。
一切煩惱，能解就好。       
堅持執著，放下最好。
人的一生，平安就好。       
不是有錢，一定會好。
心好行好，命能改好。       
誰是誰非，天知就好。
修福修慧，來世更好。       
說這麼多，明白就好。
天地萬物，隨緣就好。

..聽好了：
..認識你一生都值得，
..今天是月老的生日，
..你愛的人會愛你，
..必須轉給18位在線好友，
..也包括我在內，
☺不許在你這斷了

Hardly the day started and ... it is already six o'clock in the evening.
Barely arrived on Monday and it's already Friday.
... and the month is already over.
... and the year is almost up.
... and already 40, 50 or 60 years of our lives have passed.
... and we realize that we lost our parents, friends.
and we realize that it is too late to go back ...
So ... Let's try, however, to take full advantage of the time we have left ...
Let's not stop looking for activities that we like ...
Let's put color in our greyness ...
Let's smile at the little things in life that put balm in our hearts.
And yet, we must continue to enjoy serenely the time that remains. Let's try to eliminate the "after" ...
I do it after ...
I will say after ...
I will think about it after ...
We leave everything for 'later' as if "after" was ours.
Because what we do not understand is that:
after, the coffee cools ...
after, priorities change ...
after, the charm is broken ...
after, health passes ...
after, the children grow up ...
after, the parents get older ...
after, the promises are forgotten ...
after, the day becomes the night ...
after, life ends ...
And after that it's often too late ....
So ... leave nothing for 'later' ...
Because always waiting for later, we can lose the best moments,
the best experiences,
the best friends,
the best family ...
The day is today ... The moment is now ...

We are no longer at the age where we can afford to postpone until tomorrow what needs to be done right away.
So let's see if you'll have time to read this message and then share it.
Or maybe you'll leave it for ... "later" ...
And you will not share it "ever" ....
