Real happiness comes not in achieving big things but enjoying the simple blessings in life.

Our heart is not a basket for keeping tensions and worries. It is a vessel for keeping happiness. Let it be filled with joy and peace always.

If you can't be a pencil to write anyone's happiness, then be at least try to be a nice rubber to erase everyone's sorrow.

Kindness is an inner desire that makes us do good things to others even if we don't get anything in return. It is done with sincerity and done from the heart. You become worthy not for who you are, not even for what you have, but of what others become because of you.

This Blog is NOT About Competing

2010-04-15T22:08:00.001+08:00

I decided to make this blog to share all the text messages I receive everyday. This blog is not meant to compete with the existing best websites out there. This is my way of appreciating all the senders who wasted their time, effort and money just to send those messages to me. I decided to do it for the purpose of sharing it to everyone than let these bits of wonderful insights lay dormant in the pages of my notebook and at the same time to have more space in my phone memory. From funny jokes, inspirational quotes and every bits and pieces of messages, I will share it here. These messages are eating up a lot of space that I have to erase messages in my phone from time to time. I hate to delete inspirational messages. So instead of deleting them, I will share them to anyone in this world who would care to read.

For a start, let me share this Chinese proverb that everyone is so familiar with:

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."

Why did I share this? Mainly because this first post is the first single step I am going to take to begin the journey of this new blog.
