A friend sent me this. It’s fairly religion-neutral and not affiliated with any faith in particular. Sometimes, it is necessary to ask ourselves some tough questions, just to shake ourselves out of the comfort zone. After all, if you don’t care enough about the present state of the world in the first place, the questions hold no meaning.
How often do we find ourselves running out of time? Is it really time we are short of? Or purpose and passion?
“Never say that you have no time. On the whole it is those who are busiest who can make time for yet more, and those who have more leisure time who refuse to do something when asked. What we lack is not time, but heart.”
Henri Boulard
A timely reminder from a great “Dreamer” of the past. Amidst the recent debates (and ongoing) about ramifications of genetic research and technology developments for the military, it may do us some good to also study the “morals of science”!?
“Our scientific power has outrun our spiritual power.
We have guided missiles and misguided men.”Martin Luther King, Jr
“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well-preserved body, but rather with a cold beer in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming “Woo-hoo, what a ride!!”Unknown (but much appreciated!)
Just to top off a wet Friday here in Singapore.
Happiness does not depend on outward things, but on the way we see them.
Leo Tolstoy
