Everyone needs some essence of chan/zen

Over thinking too much, the mind can't be clear, can't be itself, can't function properly and it suffocates. Everyone needs some essence of chan/zen. It's a breather.

Training for the big day

I like the quote "Training for the big day". The reason why I like this quote because it has so much depth behind it. How it means you have a goal, it means you have a direction, you are not lost and not in  idle mode, your put your whole  heart into it trying your best, there's a sense of sincerity, determination, so much elements that comes out from this quote it self.

the cause of corruption in this society

The fruit of a corrupted society has come to bloom; a society that neglects parenting, neglects moral education and even encourage corrupted media have manifested it's colour (not implying to all). The mind is the root, so moral education is needed to truly reform this society. Even adults now need to be re-educate d to be a functional human being in this society...

Element of success

Wish:

• You want to be successfull and what to succeed.

Confidence:

• You can do it! (sooner of later)
• Don't fear it, just do it

Reassurance:

• It is just a small bump of the road of life, it'll be fine.
• Pray and have faith

Mindful :

• Don't think of anything else other than to succeed, and whilst doing it, don't think of success or winning, just do it!

Encouragement

• Think of the reward

Poem: seasons

Spring has hundreds of blossoms,


Autumn has the (fullest) moon,

Summer has cooling breezes,

Winter has snow.

If there are no useless matters on the mind,

...this is life's good season.

春有百花秋有月，

夏有凉风冬有雪；

若无闲事挂心头，

便是人间好时节。
