I think it’s an extremely delicate question to answer. On one hand, you want to monitor to prevent your children from being influenced by negativity, but on the other hand, if you do, you’ll stunt their growth to become adults to face the real world. I help keep an eye on my...

I’m a firm believer in this as I clearly draw the line between work and play, and there are no grey areas. Some of us take our free time for granted and do not protect it at all cost. When you work, you work, when you’re off, you relax. Sure you will say you will not earn extra...

This is a reminder that life’s just too short to be petty. Take 2011 by the horns and power through to greater heights. Happy New Year 2011!

There are various ways of humoring people around you. I used to have put-down humor like the English, but over the years, this has toned down, as I realize it’s nothing but a devious way of criticizing others through teasing and ridicule. After putting them down, you quickly say,...

Hardship. At some point in life, I can say that we all go through it, at different levels. Mine, was shortly before my dad’s demise in 1986. My mom was only a housewife the day he died. We were only renting a room off Jalan Pahang as my dad was between jobs and was on the way to apply...

If you answered boredom, then you share my thoughts. What keeps us going? Day in and day out? We all need a purpose to live, and with boredom, it kills the purpose. Let’s face it, we all need challenge in life to keep our hearts beating, mind thinking and body working. Stress to be is...
