Cheerful & Fruitful Day

Today I was at Kiwanis, PJ for a TV9 program shooting called 'Stanza'. I was there with 2 of my colleagues. The main highlight is actually my colleague who was Ms. Malaysia International. The 2 of us were just the 'extra actors' to add some spice in the TV show.. hahahah... We visited the Down Syndrome kids while they were in their class with their teachers. We were observing & distributing chocolates to them & their teachers. 1 particular boy caught my eye as his teacher were trying to feed him but he just refused to eat! And at 1 point,he was forced to open his mouth in order to feed him but the boy threw the whole thing out! The teacher really need a lot of patient when dealing with these special kids. On my part, I suddenly felt a bit remorseful & thankful that I was born physically complete, healthy & fit. :) Alhamdulillah..... We visited 3 classes today & these children are actually a happy- go- lucky fellas! They sing, they dance & they even know how to give you a hand shake & flying kiss !!! :D This program will be aired some time in May, on Tuesday night @ 9.30pm. The exact date has yet to be confirmed!

On a different note, here is something to share that I got in my email from a friend :

This is amazing, Randy Pausch 47 yrs old, A computer Sc. lecturer from Mellon University. He died of pancreatic cancer in 2008,but wrote a book ‘The last lecture” before then, one of the bestsellers in 2007. What a legacy to leave behind…
In a letter to his wife Jai and his children, Dylan, Logan , and Chloe, he wrote this beautiful "guide to a better life" for his wife and children to follow.
May you be blessed by his insight.

POINTS ON HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR LIFE


Personality:

1. Don't compare your life to others'. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

2. Don't have negative thoughts of things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment

3. Don't over do; keep your limits

4. Don't take yourself so seriously; no one else does

5. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip

6. Dream more while you are awake

7. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need..

8. Forget issues of the past. Don't remind your partner of his/her mistakes of the past. That will ruin your present happiness.

9. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. Don't hate others.

10. Make peace with your past so it won't spoil the present

11. No one is in charge of your happiness except you

12. Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.

13. Smile and laugh more

14. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

Community:

15. Call your family often

16. Each day give something good to others

17. Forgive everyone for everything

18. Spend time with people over the age of 70 & under the age of 6

19. Try to make at least three people smile each day

20. What other people think of you is none of your business

21. Your job will not take care of you when you are sick. Your family and friends will. Stay in touch.

Life:

22. Put GOD first in anything and everything that you think, say and do.

23. GOD heals everything

24. Do the right things

25. However good or bad a situation is, it will change

26. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up

27. The best is yet to come

28. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful

29. When you awake alive in the morning, thank GOD for it

30. If you know GOD you will always be happy. So, be happy.

While you practice all of the above, share this knowledge with the people you love, people you school with, people you play with, people you work with and people you live with.
Not only will it enrich YOUR life, but also that of those around you.

Remember: GOOD THINGS ARE FOR US TO SHARE.....!!!!!!

Have a great day!! Xoxo... :D
