    十年 - QUITE TRUE

    十年前,結識新朋友是交換名字,交換電話;十年後,做朋友是交換卡片,交換電郵。

    十年前,認識而有來往的,叫朋友;十年後,認識而有來往的,大部分叫同事。

    十年前,能夠談天的都是知己;十年後,能夠慷慨解囊的才算朋友。

    十年前,聖誕節是朋友節,普天同慶;十年後,聖誕節即情人節,請勿打擾。

    十年前,每月的零用錢,是公開的秘密;十年後,工資是不能公開的秘密。

    十年前,朋友聚會是汽水與籃球;十年後,朋友敘舊是啤酒與K歌。

    十年前,什麼話題也可以刨根問底;十年後,我們熟練「點到即止」的技巧。

    十年前,約會沒有目的;十年後,沒有目的就沒有約會。

    十年前,什麼場合都適用AA 制;十年後,每擱`有被請或請人的理由。

    十年前,見面每問「讀了什麼書」;十年後,見面只問入了什麼股。

    十年前,相約看電影,結伴去暢泳,日子無憂無慮;十年後,相約做婦檢,結伴做按摩,生活疲憊多慮。

    十年前,習慣直斥對方的缺點;十年後,學懂包容對方的短處。

    十年前,只需學習與朋友相處;十年後,還要懂得與朋友的另一半相處。

    十年前,大家活在相同的生活圈子裏,簡單而專一;十年後,我們在不同的圈子打滾,複雜而多變。

    十年前,我們漫談「理想」;十年後,我們謾罵「現實」。

    十年前,認定的那幾個知己金蘭;十年後,謝天謝地,你們依然如故,與我常在。

    打開信箱

    小時候,很渴望收信
    亦因此而交筆友
     
    升中學後,開始期待收情信
     
    現在,每次打開信箱總會有一大堆信
    各式各樣的,莫論多別緻的包裝、多親切的稱呼
    除了賬單,還是賬單
    三天一小單,五天一大單
    我家的信箱不知不覺已經成為一家小型收數公司
     
    今天,收到的竟然不是賬單!!!!!
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    而是.....一封違反交通規例的告票!!

    Practical Management Skills

    Saw this piece some time ago, still think it's interesting to share with you all....

     

    Lesson 1:

    A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings. 
     
    The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs. 
     
    When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbor. 

    Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.' 
     
    After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.  
     
    The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.  
     
    When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?'  

    'It was Bob the next door neighbor,' she replies. 


    'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?' 
      
    Moral of the story:
     

    If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.
     
       
    Lesson 2:
     
    A priest offered a Nun a lift. 

     
    She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.  
     
    The priest nearly had an accident. 

     
    After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.  

    The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?' 
     
    The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again. 
    The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?' 

    The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.'  

    Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way. 

    On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.' 

    Moral of the story:
     
    If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.
     
     
    Lesson 3:  
    A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp.  
     
    They rub it and a Genie comes out. 
    The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.'  
    'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk. 'I want to be in the
    Bahamas
    , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.' 
    Puff! She's gone. 


    'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.' 


    Puff! He's gone. 

    'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the manager. 
    The manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after lunch.' 


    Moral of the story:
     
    Always let your boss have the first say.
     

    Lesson 4  
    An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. 
     
    A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?' 
    The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.'  

    So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.  

    Moral of the story:
     

    To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
     

    Lesson 5
     
    A turkey was chatting with a bull. 

     
    'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.'  
    'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.' 

    The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.  
     
    The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.  
     
    Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.  

    He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.  

    Moral of the story:
     
    Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there..
     
     
    Lesson 6  
    A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. 
     
    While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him. 

    As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was. 
     
    The dung was actually thawing him out! 
     
    He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. 
    A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.  
     
    Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him. 


    Morals of the story:
     

    (1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy. 


    (2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your 
       friend.
     

    (3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!

    愛是不保留

    幾年前参加饑渴30時認識的一首詩歌....今日發現了它的英文版..
     
    愛是不保留
    常聽說世界愛沒長久,哪裡會有愛無盡頭?
    塵俗的愛只在乎曾擁有,一刻燦爛便要走!

    而我卻確信愛是恆久,碰到了你已無別求:
    無從解釋、不可說明的愛,千秋過後仍長存不朽!

    誰人受痛苦被懸掛在木頭?至高的愛盡見於刺穿的手;
    看!血在流反映愛沒保留,持續不死的愛到萬世不休!
    惟求奉上生命全歸主所有,要將一切盡獻於我的手;
    我已決定今生再沒所求,惟望得主稱讚已足夠!

     

    Unreserved Love

    I've always been told love won't survive,
    Promises will turn into lies,
    The world just thinks love comes and passes through,
    It never lasts pure and true.

    But I still believe love can last,
    It's your unfailing love that gives me rest,
    You were there when I needed you most,
    I'll never walk all alone.

    On the cross you died and took away my curse,
    Love so wondrous no one ever could deserve,
    Your bleeding hands proved your love unreserved,
    You're my greatest joy and treasure on the earth.

    Make my life a fragrant offering I pray,
    Help me Lord to serve you truly every day,
    Through tears and joy I'll give you all my praise,
    Let the whole world know your love and grace.

    難免唏噓

    畢業後第一份工是當 Financial PR,初出茅廬便跟一眾 ibankers, auditors, FDs, CEOs, Chairmans 交手,難免時常被當妹仔看待  
    那時代,完全無懼朝九晚十二的工作,倦了便把contact lens 換上近視鏡
    日間受了閒氣,只會在回家的士途中暗自垂淚,第二天又再投入工作
    那股傻勁,只會在fresh grad身上找到
     
    今天,得知一間曾被自己baby-sit上市的一家公司要close down core business,難免感覺唏噓

    All about pisces

    Fish appear to be individuals, but have you ever seen a school of them swimming together? They act as one. Each is part of a greater whole. And you Pisces Fish are more aware of your interdependency than any other sign. It's as if Pisces live in an ocean and the spirit that flows through you is like the one ocean that flows through all fishes. The symbol of the Fish is also the symbol of Christianity, the predominant religion during the past two thousand years -- also known to astrologers as the "Age of Pisces."

    Pisces are spiritual in nature and emotional in expression. Pisces intuition and imagination are at once Pisces strengths and weakness. Pisces are attracted to the mystical side of things, and herein lay potential danger, for when pulled beneath the currents of everyday life, the realms of imagination and the subconscious offer little structure. Without the foundation of reality, it becomes easy to flounder and to lose direction. Pisces own salvation, however, can come from helping others less fortunate that yourself, especially those who have fallen into the misty realms of drugs, alcohol or spiritual confusion.

    The Pisces motto might be "Reality is just a shared illusion," and, in a higher sense this may be true. Nevertheless, you still need to survive in this "shared illusion" of reality, and sometimes this becomes a struggle for you compassionate Fish, who can feel the pain of the world as if it were your own. There's no easy escape for you. Your best path is to follow a creative or spiritual pursuit while doing your work in the real world.

    Element: Water
    Astrologically, the water element symbolizes emotion. Water runs deep; it seeks its own level and will flow until it has found it. The cycle of water is endless with the snows falling in the mountains and melting. The mountain streams join to make the great rivers that run to the sea. The tides and currents churn the oceans. Similarly, our feelings are flowing as they connect the present with past experiences. Sometimes the waters are so deep that we cannot put words to our feelings.

    The waters of Pisces are about the waters of consciousness itself. We live in a sea of thoughts and feelings and beliefs. These waters connect each of us to one another in ways that go beyond our rational understanding of life.

    Twelfth House: Endings
    The Twelfth House is like the astrological refuse collector. It's not about endings in the traditional sense; it's more about recycling. Here is where we brush up against our own limitations and see how they undo what we've done. Here is where it all dissolves into the boundless cosmos, only to be transformed and to start anew, back in the First House, all over again.

    Key Planet: Neptune
    Neptune was the God (or Goddess) of the Seas. She symbolizes the dissolution of reality, for all Earth arises from the ocean and eventually to it returns. Neptune is represented by the mists, which prevent us from seeing what's really "out there." Instead, we must rely on our own imagination to guide us through the hidden realms. As the key planet for Pisces, Neptune is about the spiritual and the mystical. It's about what we cannot see with our five senses.

    Pisces Greatest Strength: Your compassion for those in need

    Pisces Possible Weakness: Confusion can put you at a disadvantage

    一首讓我認識AT17的歌

    The best is yet to come
     
    永遠有一個吻未嘗
    有些燭光世@@U亮
    若愛太苦要落糖
    結他斷線亦無恙
    To hug someone to kiss someone
    The best is yet to come

    若要錯失永不能守
    得到也不代表長久
    假使快樂有盡頭
    痛苦也未會不朽
    寂寞半點假如不能承受
    這生命註定過得不易
    笑與淚 亦有時候

    To hug someone to kiss someone
    The best is yet to come

    若你說不再聽情歌
    不想再經歷這漩渦
    假使抱住你拳頭
    到底也沒法牽手

    就是為了追求一時平靜
    將感情隔離半點感動都扼殺
    沒法承受

    永遠有不妥協傷口
    有些憾事不放手
    若你太刻意淡忘
    越會補不到缺口
    Why don’t you just hug someone just kiss someone
    The best is yet to come
    最好的尚未來臨

    Tar

    I had a dream last night, a very weird one!
    In the dream, I asked a stranger to give me a cigarette. This is the first cigarette ever in my life, both real and non-real.
    I can tell the taste of tar after I inhale the first smoke, it tastes so BAD!!!
     
    P.S. I really hate ppl smoking which make me sick.
     

    My computer is dead!!

    My computer is dead for over a week, still don't have time to get it fix! Poor me!!

    Walk with faith in your heart

    Walk with faith in your heart and you'll never walk alone.
    For the faith in your heart the world is yours to own.
    You never will grieve if in Him you believe,
    and walk with faith in your heart!
     
    When the dreams that you dream seem to disappear from view,
    that's the time to hang on and soon they'll come true.
    He'll lighten your load as you travel life's road,
    so walk with faith in your heart!
     
    You will find happiness if you let Him be your friend,
    and you'll find that success is just around the bend.
    He won't let you down, wear a smile, not a frown,
    and walk with faith in your heart!

    Are computers boys or girls?

     A SPANISH Teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine. "House"
    for instance, is feminine: "la casa." "Pencil," however, is masculine:
    "el lapiz."

    A student asked, "What gender is 'computer'?"

    Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether "computer" should be a masculine or a feminine noun.

    Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.



    The men's group decided that "computer" should definitely be of the feminine gender ("la computadora"), because:

    1. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

    2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;

    3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and

    4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your pay check on accessories for it.


    (THIS GETS BETTER!)


    The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine ("el computador"), because:

    1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

    2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;

    3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and

    4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model.

    The women won
     
    TOTALLY AGREED!!!!!

    TODAY'S SCRIPTURE- Aug 13

    So when does your quest to improve yourself end? When you stop breathing.

    Between now and then, you should consider yourself to be an ongoing project. A work in process. Always improving. Never stagnant.

    Seems harsh, but I know I can do it.
