Whatsoever Good

But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Cast thy burden upon the Lord , and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.

The first time I learnt that human was always alone is when my mother passed away. The Catholic priest word of comfort towards my father was for him not feel  indeference and sad to be by himself, he said that every one of us born alone in this world.  I learn that everybody is alone in this world. When I realised this, I feel that life is much more lighter everyday.  I always alone in this world but I would never lonely.

Empty your mind of all thoughts. Let your heart be at peace. Watch the turmoil of beings, but contemplate their return. Each separate being in the universe returns to the common source. Returning to the source is serenity. If you don't realize the source, you stumble in confusion and sorrow. When you realize where you come from, you naturally become tolerant, disinterested, amused, kindhearted as a grandmother, dignified as a king. Immersed in the wonder of the Tao, you can deal with whatever life brings you, and when death comes, you are ready. Tao The Ching Chapter 16

The ancient Masters were profound and subtle. Their wisdom was unfathomable. There is no way to describe it; all we can describe is their appearance. They were careful as someone crossing an iced-over stream. Alert as a warrior in enemy territory. Courteous as a guest. Fluid as melting ice. Shapable as a block of wood. Receptive as a valley. Clear as a glass of water. Do you have the patience to wait till your mud settles and the water is clear? Can you remain unmoving till the right action arises by itself? The Master doesn't seek fulfillment. Not seeking, not expecting, she is present, and can welcome all things. Tao The Ching Chapter 15

Look, and it can't be seen. Listen, and it can't be heard. Reach, and it can't be grasped. Above, it isn't bright. Below, it isn't dark. Seamless, unnamable, it returns to the realm of nothing. Form that includes all forms, image without an image, subtle, beyond all conception. Approach it and there is no beginning; follow it and there is no end. You can't know it, but you can be it, at ease in your own life. Just realize where you come from: this is the essence of wisdom. Tao The Ching Chapter 14

This is the attitude Everytime the life knock me down to the lowest point possible, I will never fail to get up and fight in everytime. I might be battered and injured, but the life will never knock me out.

Success is as dangerous as failure. Hope is as hollow as fear. What does it mean that success is a dangerous as failure? Whether you go up the ladder or down it, your position is shaky. When you stand with your two feet on the ground, you will always keep your balance. What does it mean that hope is as hollow as fear? Hope and fear are both phantoms that arise from thinking of the self. When we don't see the self as self, what do we have to fear? See the world as your self. Have faith in the way things are. Love the world as your self; then you can care for all things. Tao The Ching Chapter 13

Colors blind the eye. Sounds deafen the ear. Flavors numb the taste. Thoughts weaken the mind. Desires wither the heart. The Master observes the world but trusts his inner vision. He allows things to come and go. His heart is open as the sky. Tao The Ching Chapter 12

We join spokes together in a wheel, but it is the center hole that makes the wagon move. We shape clay into a pot, but it is the emptiness inside that holds whatever we want. We hammer wood for a house, but it is the inner space that makes it livable. We work with being, but non-being is what we use. Tao The Ching Chapter 11

Can you coax your mind from its wandering and keep to the original oneness? Can you let your body become supple as a newborn child's? Can you cleanse your inner vision until you see nothing but the light? Can you love people and lead them without imposing your will? Can you deal with the most vital matters by letting events take their course? Can you step back from you own mind and thus understand all things? Giving birth and nourishing, having without possessing, acting with no expectations, leading and not trying to control: this is the supreme virtue. Tao The Ching Chapter 10

Fill your bowl to the brim and it will spill. Keep sharpening your knife and it will blunt. Chase after money and security and your heart will never unclench. Care about people's approval and you will be their prisoner. Do your work, then step back. The only path to serenity. Tao The Ching Chapter 9

The supreme good is like water, which nourishes all things without trying to. It is content with the low places that people disdain. Thus it is like the Tao. In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don't try to control. In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present. When you are content to be simply yourself and don't compare or compete, everybody will respect you. Tao The Ching Chapter 8

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

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 Tao is called the Great Mother: empty yet inexhaustible, it gives birth to infinite worlds. It is always present within you. You can use it any way you want. Tao The Ching Chapter 6

The Tao doesn't take sides; it gives birth to both good and evil. The Master doesn't take sides; she welcomes both saints and sinners. The Tao is like a bellows: it is empty yet infinitely capable. The more you use it, the more it produces; the more you talk of it, the less you understand. Hold on to the center. Tao The Ching Chapter 5

The Tao is like a well: used but never used up. It is like the eternal void: filled with infinite possibilities. It is hidden but always present. I don't know who gave birth to it. It is older than universe. Tao The Ching Chapter 4

If you overesteem great men, people become powerless. If you overvalue possessions, people begin to steal. The Master leads by emptying people's minds and filling their cores, by weakening their ambition and toughening their resolve. He helps people lose everything they know, everything they desire, and creates confusion in those who think that they know. Practice not-doing, and everything will fall into place. Tao The Ching Chapter 3

When people see some things as beautiful, other things become ugly. When people see some things as good, other things become bad. Being and non-being create each other. Difficult and easy support each other. Long and short define each other. High and low depend on each other. Before and after follow each other. Therefore the Master acts without doing anything and teaches without saying anything. Things arise and she lets them come; things disappear and she lets them go. She has but doesn't possess, acts but doesn't expect. When her work is done, she forgets it. That is why it lasts forever. Tao The Ching Chapter 2

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

Those who stands on tiptoes, do not stand firmly Those who rush ahead do not get very far Those who try to outshine others dim their own light

When I was a kid, I do have a bigger mind and a smaller heart. I was fearless, I think big and dream big, I have no worries, and I have the 'can do' attitude. I was not always happy, I cried and upset about many little things, but I always have positive mind towards anything. I love my family, myself, my comic books, I don't have too many attachments and I don't love easily. Now that I am a grown adult, I realised that I have a smaller mind and a bigger heart. I became so much pessimistic, skeptical, critical and judgemental. I got a lot of fear, I got anxious often, uncertainties worries me, things or people that do not do according to my ideal are irritating me, and my 'can do' attitude is keep diminishing by age. But I become to love people and things easily, I forgive people easily, I become more considerate and understanding person, I have too many attachments and I have so many wants in my life. I have lots of curiosity on people minds, their cultures, and...

But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Matthew 19:26 KJV

This 65 year old man really has a million dollar smile, very inviting, I am finding it very hard to resist his smile. Bless his soul, despite of his lack of materials belonging, he lives so contently and happily. This random act of kindness is kind of hard to be adapted in Western Societies. People are so sceptical in the 'West', when people received free stuff they would asked on your motives. If they became sick after that, they won't hesitate to sue their good Samaritan. So tiring 😖 #PasukanBabatSukses #BudionoSukses #Surabaya

According to Oxford dictionary moody is adjective adjective:  moody ; comparative adjective:  moodier ; superlative adjective:  moodies (of a person) given to unpredictable changes of mood, especially sudden bouts of gloominess or sullenness. Moody is one of my zodiac trait, and I have been dealing with moodiness all my life; Especially when I want to achieve something. Due to this character of mine, I realised that it's very hard for me to achieve things that require long run and uncertainties, it is much easier for me to achieve something that are relatively short where the finals are attainable, feasible, felt, quite visible and predicted. This moodiness makes me thrive everytime there are difficult situations. It makes me to be a planner but also a last minute person. I am very good with the deadlines and punctualities, but not the result. Something that usually being done in the rush and last minute are not usually optimal and the best. There you go, this is me peopl...

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.  Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
