Yesterday got my iphone... nice. Haha.. and i sold my phone to a disabled at a really low price... i let him ask for the price himself and i will do with it. At least this is my Lord's teaching. Ask and ya shall be given.

This morning went top run with Ezra... well i think 6.4 km is not too tough for me anymore.. i can do 11 pull ups le. 4 more and i hit my target for pull up. I wanna loose a bit more fats! Build up a bit more muscle. Kinda tired today. had fun playing with my iphone 3g 8gb last night. Not the best iphone but i am contented.

And these 2 days will be learning on using movie maker. Quite fun and not too tough. haha... next time work have to use le~~! So Many projects~ Woot

Thinking about the email Mel sent out:

In my response to His conviction i wan obey him n confess my sins because He wans to restore those unresolve issue that has affected me n has affected the cell group n He wans to restore our friendship with one another.I pray that He who lay upon my heart to share n confess all this things would also draw u to attend this friday cell group because that is his agenda for us before we can even talk about doing caroling as a cell. Hope to see u there.

A friend who asked me to break off my ex gf
then he himself went on to want to hook on her
and she wanted to make use of him to get me angry and keep her accompany
and after i break off with her
he went around spreading bad rumors about me to my cell members
and before all these happened,
he ditch his gf, and got close to my gf
now the celll group only got 8 people...
all 4 of us are inside. You can imagine

all these is part of nature
accept it and let it flow...it goes it comes
its the law of nature.
What is reap is what sowed.


Abstraction
When beauty is abstracted
Then ugliness has been implied;
When good is abstracted
Then evil has been implied.

So alive and dead are abstracted from nature,
Difficult and easy abstracted from progress,
Long and short abstracted from contrast,
High and low abstracted from depth,
Song and speech abstracted from melody,
After and before abstracted from sequence.

The sage experiences without abstraction,
And accomplishes without action;
He accepts the ebb and flow of things,Nurtures them,
but does not own them,And lives, but does not dwell.

Without Action

Not praising the worthy prevents contention,
Not esteeming the valuable prevents theft,
Not displaying the beautiful prevents desire.

In this manner the sage governs people:
Emptying their minds,Filling their bellies,
Weakening their ambitions,
And strengthening their bones.

If people lack knowledge and desire
Then they can not act;
If no action is taken
Harmony remains.

Nature
Nature is not kind;
It treats all things impartially.
The Sage is not kind,
And treats all people impartially.

Nature is like a bellows,Empty,
yet never ceasing its supply.
The more it moves, the more it yields;
So the sage draws upon experience
And cannot be exhausted.

WATER

The best of man is like water,
Which benefits all things,
and does not contend with them,
Which flows in places that others disdain,
Where it is in harmony with the Way.

So the sage:Lives within nature,
Thinks within the deep,
Gives within impartiality,
Speaks within trust,
Governs within order,
Crafts within ability,
Acts within opportunity.

He does not contend,
and none contend against him

Fill a cup to its brim and it is easily spilled;
Temper a sword to its hardest and it is easily broken;
Amass the greatest treasure and it is easily stolen;
Claim credit and honour and you easily fall;
Retire once your purpose is achieved -
this is natural.

Harmony
Embracing the Way, you become embraced;
Breathing gently, you become newborn;
Clearing your mind, you become clear;
Nurturing your children, you become impartial;
Opening your heart, you become accepted;
Accepting the world, you embrace the Way.

Bearing and nurturing,Creating but not owning,
Giving without demanding,
This is harmony.
