Grow

One of the kid characteristic is their difficulties in expressing themselves, once they encountered a problem they will show us many emotions such as confusion, frustration, anger, despair, and sadness. They will throw tantrum to communicate their unspeakable words instead of using sentences to complain or explain. This is because children have their limitation in vocabulary. Therefore the process of growing up require brushing up our communication skills. I still learning on how to expressing my emotion in words, and I use this blogging platform to improve my communication skills.

My husband and I are a pair of serious people. It is my joy to annoy him by doing prank and utter silly things. My husband often said to me that "small things amused small mind" (he said it in a gentle manner of course 😍). Indeed, I love small and simple things so much, I always keep my distance from complicated items, expensive things and phony behaviour, I even avoid socializing and keep my circle so small. Per contra, in the society what so called 'grown up adults' are complex beings, I guess I still have to grow up each and every day, and built the way I think and carry myself and hopefully I can become an open sophisticated adult with the heart of a child. 

We currently live in a long peaceful era, the war we know and experience are the cyber war and the emotional war in the real housewives, love islands, and the bachelor. We have limited life experiences, and living a convenient yet shallow lives. The young generation nowadays are live comfortably and have not been exposed to many life events such as suffering and deaths, thanks to the decrease of poverty and the rise of middle class income people in the developed and developing countries, 

I also have had a comfortable upbringing, my parents were good provider and they were quite protective of their children. Because of this, I think some part of me are still live in my own bubble until now. And that's what attracted me to drama on TV and internet, all these binge watching is just to compensate all the dull days. I need to step up my game, be more responsible of myself by stop wasting time on pleasurable events and entertainments. I would make my days filled with small achievements. I need to get out of my comfort zone, find my sweet spot, and grow.

Inorganic

The Tao is infinite, eternal. Why is it eternal? It was never born; thus it can never die. Why is it infinite? It has no desires for itself; thus it is present for all beings. The Master stays behind; that is why she is ahead. She is detached from all things; that is why she is one with them. Because she has let go of herself, she is perfectly fulfilled. Tao The Ching Chapter 7

The Gateway to All Understanding

The tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao The name that can be named is not the eternal Name. The unnamable is the eternally real. Naming is the origin of all particular things. Free from desire, you realize the mystery. Caught in desire, you see only the manifestations. Yet mystery and manifestations arise from the same source. This source is called darkness. Darkness within darkness. The gateway to all understanding. Tao The Ching Chapter 1

Smile

How to Win Friends and Influence People Dale Carnegie It costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None are so rich they can get along without, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits.  It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends. It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and Nature´s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away.  And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying someone should be too tired to give you a smile, maybe we can leave one of ours for them. For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none left to  give !  give ! https://www.thesun.co.uk/living/23...
