PASSION


People are illogical, unreasonable,

and self-centred.
Love them anyway.

If you do good, people will
accuse you of selfish ulterior motives,
Do good anyway.

If you are successful,
you will win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.

The good you do today will be
forgotten tomorrow
Do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you
vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.

The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas
can be shot down by the smallest maen and women
with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.

People favour underdogs but follow
only top dogs.
Fight for a few underdogs anyway.

What you spend years building may
be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.

People really need help but
may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.
Give the world the best you have
and you'll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you have anyway.
(Paradoxical Commandments by Dr. Kent M. Keith 1968)


I came across this beautiful piece when I was reading a book, and it makes me think about the people nowadays... There are so many people, have lost their passion for so long, over reality.

Human without passion, will be just like robot. Whatever we do we just follow the routine, there is no soul nor passion in the things we do. Like work for the sake of working, busy for the sake of money, hang out for the sake of not being lonely... but no value

"Wei, very sien ar.." , "Boring ar..." , "Life's sucks wei" , " I feel so lonely, empty, I need a gf/bf" ....Does it sound familar? I'm sure we heard that alot from ppl around us, or maybe from ourself... So sad but so true, so comman that you can hear it over and over again from people... Why is this happening? Is this it? Life is just like that?? Hell no! Life is not suck, life is wonderful..Its just us, how we view our lives..
.
Every moment of our lives is like a TV channel. When you tune into documentary channel, all you see are documentories. When you tune into MTV, you see music videos. Every thought of us determine.. It is like frequency, when we have negative thoughts, everything around us will be negative.. If we tune into "Sien-ness" channel, every moment of our time is SIEN ! (boring)


The difference between good and evil is :
- one has perfect control of all forces within him/her
- well the other is dominated and controlled by the forces ..
So? Which channel do you wanna tune into?
It is so important to hold our passion tight with us.. "Passion" on its own is neither good nor bad. It depends on what we apply it. If we apply it with anger, greed, jealousy, insecurity..then we are directing ourself passionately into sorrows, blames, failures....

Live out our passion , and not just dream about it. Merely wishing brings nothing but disappointments. If we have our dreams, we must be PASSIONATE about this dream, dare to dream, and never give in to reality...

History..is bout create, changes, action, and revolution! And history is created by us..
Youth, never to sit and wait, and follow the discourage mindset by "most of the people" ..
Find back our passion, in whatever things we do..whether you're working or studying , passionate to people, passionate to things around us, passionate to create value, passionate to encourage people.... PASSION is our weapon...
You pursue your dreams with great passion
and intensity but it may turn out sour.
Be passionate anyway!
