Do you like the design of these necklaces for mothers? This is one of the items in coming Mother’s Day gift budget planning. I already decided to buy orchid to my mother in law. Then I started to look and search around what I want. I am a mother too so I deserved to receive gift on that day. I should include this in our next month budget. I am going to show it to my hubby because he is the one going to spend.

I love all the necklaces design but I am not greedy. Darling, buy me the first one enough.

I need to re-plan my monthly budget after my sis suggestion to buy the senior life insurance.

I do agree that this is a good investment. Funeral cost and package nowadays is getting expensive compared to before. I am sure the price will continue goes up in future. This is one of the ways to cover the cost that we can not avoid to spend in future.

But I am wondering what is the price of the yearly premium will charge. My sis said she will get quotes from insurance companies and let us to consider on.

If the amount is affordable, I will go for it.

I always wonder what the best way to teach and share my experiences with my two little princesses. I wish I can teach them whatever I had learned as well as whatever skills and knowledge I know. Some I can teach them when things happened. Some I can teach them when I come across with. Some I wish to teach but I don’t know whether the time I share, whether they learned and they can accept…

The below is an email forwarded to me. This gave me a good idea to write whatever I want to share with my princesses. To express through writing is the best way to share also. They will need it and they will learn when the time comes.

Following is a letter to his son from a renown Hong Kong TV broadcaster cum Child Psychologist. The words are actually applicable to all of us, young or old, children or parents.!

My Son,

I am writing this to you because of 3 reasons.

Life is unpredictable, nobody knows how long he lives. Some words are better said early.

I am your father, and if I don’t tell you these, no one else will.

What is written is my own personal bitter experiences that perhaps could save you a lot of unnecessary heartache.

Remember the following as you go through life:

1.對你不好的人，你不要太介意:在你一生中，沒有人有義務要對你好，除了我和你媽媽。至於那些對你好的人，你除了要珍惜、感恩外，也請多防備一點，因為，每個人做每件事，總有一個原因，他對你好，未必真的是因為喜歡你，請你必須搞清楚，而不必太快將對方看作真朋友

Do not bear grudge towards those who are not good to you. No one has the responsibility of treating you well, except your mother and I. To those who are good to you, you have to treasure it and be thankful, and ALSO you have to be cautious, because, everyone has a motive for every move. When a person is good to you, it does not mean he really likes you. You have to be careful, don’t hastily regard him as a real friend.

2.沒有人是不可代替，沒有東西是必須擁有:看透了這一點，將來你身邊的人不再要你，或許失去了世間上最愛的一切時，也應該明白，這並不是甚麼大不了的事

No one is indispensable, nothing in the world that you must possess. Once you understand this idea, it would be easier for you to go through life when people around you don’t want you anymore, or when you lose what/who you love most.

3.生命是短暫的，今日你還在浪費著生命，明日會發覺生命已遠離你了:因此，愈早珍惜生命，你享受生命的日子也愈多，與其盼望長壽，倒不如早點享受

Life is short. When you waste your life today, tomorrow you would find that life is leaving you. The earlier you treasure your life, the better you enjoy life.

4.世界上並沒有最愛這回事:愛情只是一種霎時的感覺，而這感覺絕對會隨時日、心境而改變。如果你的所謂最愛離開你，請耐心地等候一下，讓時日慢慢沖洗，讓心靈慢慢沉澱，你的苦就會慢慢淡化。不要過分憧憬愛情的美，不要過分誇大失戀的悲.

Love is but a transient feeling, and this feeling would fade with time and with one’s mood. If your so called loved one leaves you, be patient, time will wash away your aches and sadness. Don’t over exaggerate the beauty and sweetness of love, and don’t over exaggerate the sadness of falling out of love.

5.雖然，很多有成就的人士都有没受過很多教育，但並不等如不用功讀書，就一定可以成功:你學到的知識，就是你擁有的武器!人，可以白手興家，但不可以手無寸鐵，緊記！

A lot of successful people did not receive a good education, that does not mean that you can be successful by not studying hard! Whatever knowledge you gain is your weapon in life. One can go from rags to riches, but one has to start from some rags!

6.我不會要求你供養我下半輩子，同樣地我也不會供養你的下半輩子，當你長大到可以獨立的時候，我的責任已經完結:以後，你要坐巴士還是Benz，吃魚翅還是粉絲，都要自己負責

I do not expect you to financially support me when I am old, either would I financially support your whole life. My responsibility as a supporter ends when you are grown up. After that, you decide whether you want to travel in a public transport or in your limousine, whether rich or poor.

7.你可以要求自己守信，但不能要求別人守信，你可以要求自己對人好，但不能期待人家對你好:你怎樣對人，並不代表人家就會怎樣對你，如果看不透這一點，你只會徒添不必要的煩惱.

You honour your words, but don’t expect others to be so. You can be good to people, but don’t expect people to be good to you. If you don’t understand this, you would end up with unnecessary troubles.

8.我買了十多二十年六合彩，還是一窮二白，連三獎也沒有中，這證明人要發達，還是要努力工作才可以，世界上並沒有免費午餐

I have bought lotteries for umpteen years, but I never strike any prize. That shows if you want to be rich, you have to work hard! There is no free lunch!

9.親人只有一次的緣份，無論這輩子我和你會相處多久，也請好好珍惜共聚的時光，下輩子，無論愛與不愛，都不會再見.

No matter how much time I have with you, let’s treasure the time we have together. We do not know if we would meet again in our next life.

Your Dad

Today is a special day.To night we are going to have dinner with bro-in-law’s fiancee family. This is not the first meet up of two family but this dinner mainly is to discuss on the wedding preparation which will be held in coming May.

It makes me remember my day.

Although it is more than ten years ago and I already almost forgot how the day condition is. But I remember how serious I am and my fiance when attending the dinner.

Life will be start with two living together. I wish for the smooth discussion and their smooth wedding preparation.

When drive in a sunny day, both I and hubby will feel comfortable with our Maui Jim Sunglasses. This is best tool to keep our best vision when driving under the strong sunlight.

After the explanation on why both of us wearing sunglasses, my two little princesses asking us to buy one for them. Since they travel with us frequently, this is under my consideration now. Adult needs it to protect our eyes; it is a need also for our children as well, right?

Then I am thinking, which is the sunglasses best suit for kids. I can not trust those selling in shopping malls with fancy and colorful design which I believe that are mainly for the propose of wearing it as an accessory instead of an eye protector. But I can’t find a eyeglass shop selling ‘genuine’ kid’s sunglasses. Any one knows where to get it?

If my daughter is interested, for sure I will send them to medical assistant school when they grow.

Healthy life is every one needed. To me, all jobs related to health will having bright future. Every one will fall sick. Besides, those who are hurt and injured will look for medical assistance. Even people who without sickness also need doctor advice as nowadays more and more people are concern on their health and they will proceed to medical check up.

If they think that being a doctor is tough, nurse also can be considered.

After the charity dinner, I have a deep though.

The charity dinner was to collect funds to build a new building in a local primary school. This is the Chinese primary school which can not get fully sponsor by our government as all the others Chinese and Tamil primary schools in Malaysia are almost in the same condition.

The same group of people is doing the same job for more than ten years or even longer period. All of them are working hard just to give the best to their students. The target is not very high but to achieve the goal might need not only one function or even but this is a continuous job because they still rely on extra contributions to get better facilities and to cover the facilities maintenance costs.

The money that I donate when I was young, was been utilized to build a brand new facility hall which my princess is using and enjoying it now. The money that I contribute now is to build a new 4 storeys classroom as soon as they get sufficient building fund.

Well done for all the good jobs to all the teachers, workers, headmaster, AJK and PIBG members!

Time flies. Here comes the last two months of Year 2010. It looks like I am further way out of my plan. Life is full of un-expectation. I do know that what we plan is always a plan if we do not take our steps to work on it. But I just can not move a single step due to all the un-expectation.

I still continue believe that the one that I lost is something I earned. Life is always learned from experiences. I do not agreed that my life is difficult even though I am feeling hard to breath now but I still appreciated I can continue survive.

Life is going on. No matter how hard is it, I believe I can reach my plan one day. I strongly believe it because I will work hard to make my dream comes true. No matter how hard is it, I will make it happened one day. This is my life.

I am suffering so much of pressure because of the different job function now.

After the left of assistance, I am handling most the daily operation job. Then after new members joined, my time spent on ‘training’ myself. Train myself on how to pass my job to them so that I can handle some others job. What a challenging experience.

Now it is the time my members working more independently and I am started to new job function.

Time is limited but too much of backlog. This is another challenge I am facing now. What a stressful life.

I wish I can overcome all the challenges and move forward to better and better.

I am aware that our company is deducting one day medical leave when we submit the doctor signed medical certification as proof.

I am taken so many medical leave recently because I need to see my chiropractor often. At the beginning, I go for chiropractic adjustment three times a week. I went one day on every Saturday, and I submitted two medical certs a week.

Now, I am going twice a week. I am going to submit the medical cert once a week. I had go for the adjustment more than 3 months and I know this will be a long recovery journey. Anywhere, I believe I can be fully recovered one day.

I wish to submit my appeal to my company for half day medical leave deduction. I only need to take half day to travel for the adjustments and doctor never encourage me to take rest after the adjustments. I back to office continue my work every time after the adjustments.

Even though I still got annual leave balance, but I know I will need that for my future adjustments. The leaves will be finish very fast if I continue my adjustment schedule twice a week.

I wish the management can consider to my appeal.
