Face the facts - life sucks.

Know that life isn’t a bed of roses. You cannot and will never have all the good things in life. If you never taste the bitter, the sour, you won’t know how to appreciate the sweet, the luscious. Sometimes it is a matter of either/or, one or the other.

Sometimes you have to sacrifice the bigger things and instead take in the value of the smaller and seemingly less significant things. Sometimes we do have to acknowledge the theory of utilitarianism, better still is altruism. Sometimes giving up something for the greater benefit of others is the right thing to do. Sometimes you have to sacrifice the past for the future, the near future for the distant future, and the distant future for the everlasting future. After all, what are the pleasures of this life, except temporary enjoyment and relief.

And maybe, just maybe, if you give more, you will receive more, even if you can’t see any of the rewards in this short life.

If only life was as simplistically beautiful as these karipap pusar that Kak Ning made for me.

Opppsss. oh my golly. whats happenin'?

Was it Socrates who said something like "by all means marry; if you get a good wife, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher."

And now I am seeing a budding philosopher in my daughter. Hahaha. I sure do hope that my son-in-law doesn't disappoint me :). No?

And I bet none of us (read: The Clan) wish to see you becoming a philosopher by any chance.
