Every good relationship,
especially marriage,
is based on respect.
If it’s not based on respect,
nothing that appears
to be good will last very long.

Night Time

The night is cold
The night is sad for some
The night is so dark
The night come and go like my love for you
The night is time for me to sleep and dream of you
The night is everywhere I go
The night is time for some people to have fun
The night is so alone for me
I hate the night because is reminds me of you
The night was when we had fun
The night is so alone now
The night is what you love
But now the night is what I hate because of you.

Coincidence? I think not!

I keep having this nightmare:

Someone is trying to kill me.
For some reasons, I never fight back.
I just closed my eyes,
awaiting that person to kill me…
“Must be time for me to die,”
I said silently.

Same exact dream, last night.
The third time I had this dream.

The moon is shining bright,
The sun is now nowhere in sight.
The stars are twinkling with all their might,
While there’s darkness outside, left & right.
So let us now turn off the light,
and wish each other a very good night.

Our success as a nation is not measured by how many years we have governed or how many wars we have won. It is measured by the quality of life which we have created for the society that our ideals were founded upon. ~Mathew Morgan

The very purpose of religion is to control yourself, not to criticise others. Rather, we must criticise ourselves.
• How much am I doing about my anger?
• About my attachment,
• about my hatred,
• about my pride,
• my jealousy?
These are the things which we must check in daily life.

~Dalai Lama

A true friend is the one who picks you up when you fall
A true friend is one that won’t lie
A true friend is there when you call
A true friend is there when you want to die
A true friend knows just what to say
A true friend won’t care what other people think
A true friend will help you find your way
A true friend will make sure you don’t sink
A true friend will help you choose your path
A true friend will know when something is wrong
A true friend has to sometimes face your wrath
A true friend makes you feel like you belong
A true friend

I tried to organize my g+ circles,
but instead messed them up big time.
I accidently removed some friends from
the circles. I am going to add them back.
Please forgive me…

To me, breathing is a joy that I cannot miss. Every day, I practice conscious breathing, and in my small meditation room, I have calligraphed this sentence: “Breathe, you are alive!” Just breathing and smiling can make us very happy, because when we breathe consciously we recover ourselves completely and encounter life in the present moment.
