Forgiveness & Harmony

As I was reflecting at this proverb, I thought…What does it means to truly forgive and forget? As I was thinking deeper, I heard a voice speaking from my heart and it says this

“God loves and values each and every one of us so deeply, if we were to have conflicts with each other, how upset would God feel? Is it possible to choose between your left hand or right hand? In the same way, God’s heart is like that too. If we truly understand His heart, we will learn to get along well with one another and forgive the wrongs of our brothers and sisters because we do not want to put God in a difficult situation.”

As I look out at the bright full moon staring at me standing above the dark sky, a feeling of peace and serenity came to me…God’s heart came to me…

The person who forgives and be at peace with others, is someone who possesses the heart of God

Making the decision

In life, there are many choices to make. “What job should I apply for?”, “Should I pursue my dreams or should I give up.” What may seems bad now might be beneficial in the near future, while what seems good now might not be as good as it seems as time passes. Unlike the questions in an exam or a test. There are no fixed answers in life. There is pros and cons in both sides of the coin. Despite that we still have to choose a path to walk on. Despite which path it is, always pick the path that seems better to you and importantly never complain but give thanks as you walk on it, until you reach the end.

“Failure” is practice to make you do better

Focusing on failures makes you a real failure, I realize that it is easy to get drown at the thought of “Arh~It didn’t work out again! Why~~” I knew it, because I think like these often in the past. However as time passes by, I realized knowing “Why” you failed is important but it is also important to ask yourself “How” to resolve the problem. There is this saying in chinese 失败乃成功之母 (Failure is the mother of all success). Upon the foundation of where you left off, let’s try again, because a person who doesn’t gives up can never really fail.

“Failure’ is practice to make you do even better next time. Even though you may fail, don’t give up. If you do the rest better next time on top of that foundation, you achieve great victory.”

“The future” is born in “The present”

‘The future’ is born in ‘the present.’ Live for both—‘the present’ and ‘the future.’ This means that you should live for the future in the present.

Opportunity comes like a phone call

My school lecturer once told us this in a class “opportunity is given to people who are prepared.” It comes in an instant, anytime, anywhere and it goes in the same way. It is okay if you fail to grab that call today, tomorrow, or the next day. But as long as you keep waiting and prepare yourself to grab it. One day you will grab it, but make sure you are prepared to answer the call!”

“An opportunity comes like a telephone call. Just as a call comes without asking where the receiving person is, an opportunity comes in that way also.”

Recording down your inspiration!

I once asked a friend of mine, “Why are you always filled with so many ideas to draw and design, do you have any tips or secret to share?” She replied saying “Ideas and inspiration comes like a flash, it comes during times you are unaware. The time when you are bathing, the time when you are dressing, the time when you are studying. When ideas come into your mind, quickly record it down somewhere, on your phone or so. You never know whether it is a single word or phrase or an experience that you recalled from the past, each and every one of them could possibly be a potential idea to be made into something great. Quickly write it down before you forget!”

“Even when you are moved and realize, if you do not put it into action,you will forget it soon after.”
