Welcome

I guess if you’re here you must be a family member, a friend, an acquaintance I’ve meet along my life’s journey or maybe even a stranger that happened to come across my blog. Which ever one you are, welcome and I hope that what ever message is posted here will be a source of motivation and inspiration for you to live your life to the fullest-a philosophy which I am daily trying to live by.




I have a lot to say; dreams, visions, messages and experiences that I want to share. I see life as a journey, as a work in progress, as an open book; and each day we write the sentences, paragraphs, and chapters that shapes our life’s story. Every action, reaction or step that we take sets the stage for that final tale of how we lived, that final chapter in our life’s journal.

In my life I have tried to adopt a simple approach, a straightforward philosophy that many young people express but never truly live up to. I guess maybe it’s because we fail to understand the true meaning of the phrase. As mentioned before the idea is to live life to the fullest; to be the best person that I can be morally, spiritually, physically and emotionally. I try to do so by remembering the virtues or qualities that can allow us to show the true essence of human nature such as that of respect for yourself and others, humility, forgiveness and patience.

I’ve learnt that the world can be cruel, I’ve seen hurt, I’ve been hurt, I’ve already had a fair share of losses and cried buckets full of tears! But the most meaningful message I have learnt from the ills of life, is that if you allow yourself to live through it and learn from it, if in the face of cruelty and hurt you can allow yourself to be compassionate, kind, or merciful, if you can be courageous, understanding or tolerant of others; then you become a stronger person. You become a stronger person not because of the problems you face, but really because of the way you deal with it. And in that, you can truly say that you are living life to the fullest!

If you’re able to embrace opportunities that makes you a better person, or you are not afraid to experience new and positive things that can enrich your life, make it more fulfilling or rewarding, then you can say you're living life to the fullest!

This blog is where I hope to share some of the ideas behind this philosophy with you and some articles, poems or short stories that I have written, in the hopes that it will motivate at least one person. Then again, I have always loved expressing myself through writing and this gives me the opportunity to do just that with the added bonus of sharing my thoughts with others. So once again welcome!

Please feel free to comment on any article that I have posted here and share some of your experiences and thoughts.


Zhen!
