Listen & Look [another long entry]

Ever since I was little, I prefer listening than speaking. Maybe because of that, I am a very quiet person. Being a listener allows me to understand how others are. I wouldn't say I can 100% understand them but I will try my best to understand and analyze them. I prefer to interact with the speaker. I mean if it's just listen, then it wouldn't be a conversation at all. Throughout the years, I have became a good listener for few of my friends. I feel that everyone needs a listener to listen to their story. No matter how bad or good your story is, it's worth to let it out. 

Due to my work, I am require to be extra observant at all times. I can tell a lot from looking at someone. It's fascinating to learn a lot from just observing someone. I actually really enjoy the process. Of course, being observant have its ups and downs. Sometimes you get to know things that you wish you didn't know. Anyway, being observant allows me to pay closer attentions to things and people I care. And on that note, I truely wish all of you to stop at what you are doing and try to listen and pay more attentions to the people around you. It may be a surprising discovery with a closer look. 

Quote of the day: Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a
listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Kindness

Kindness is the only quality I have. I am neither talkative, wealthy and/or handsome. I feel that a little kindness goes to a long way. Some may think you are just being stupid, naive and/or wants something in return. I don't know about others but for myself, I just wanted to help. It's as simple as that. I am a very simple person and planning to stay that way. However, will this kindness of me lead to unforseen problems? Does kindness even worth anything anymore? That I really don't know. All I know is to just follow my heart. Wherever that leads me to, let it be. 

Quote of the day: A little thought and a little kindness are often worth more than a great deal of money.

Attractiveness

Attractiveness is a very subjective thing. There isn't an exact way to determine if one have attractiveness or not. How one determine someone's attractiveness is solely based upon on their own eyes and heart. To say one have no attractiveness is probably unfair to that particular individual. Although, I do wonder if I have any attractiveness or not. I doubt I have any. At least, not I know of. I am just a typical person, whom tries to survive in this cold and cruel world. That's also why I always lend a helping hand to others. I feel that if I were in their shoes, I would appreciate someone's helping hand. May all of you have a wonderful and lovely Friday. 

Quote of the day: People tolerate a lot for looks. They tolerate much less for plainness.

Emotional or logical?

Should I be emotional or logical? It's a question that I've been thinking lately. I have been mostly logical in the past 10 years but life seems to be leaning toward a more darker side. At the beginning, I was still debating if I should follow my heart or brain. Few years ago, I ensure that I must force myself to be logical due to the special circumstances. Maybe I should just be hybrid based on the situation. Life seems to be ironic most of the time. I don't expect much because the higher expectation I have, the more disapointment it would be. Either way, life still have to go on. Guess I will have to look at the brighter side and carry on. May all of you be blessed with good health and happiness.

Quote of the day: 自己知自己事

Never give up!

Life may be not always be happy but it's not always sad either. It's mixed with both happy and sad moments, which makes life interesting. When life throws you curve balls, it's okay to get hit. Just remember to always get back up and carry on. Never give up! Anything is possible when you try. No matter what the result is, the important lesson is that you tried your best. You wouldn't have any regrets about it. Sometimes, it's the mindset that affects us more than the actual obstacle. Look at it with another perspective. It's a challenge for you to conquer. Just remember to think positive and smile!

Quote of the day: You can because you think you can.
