The above random thoughts ran through my mind in less than 15 minutes. As I read from #1 to #18 again, I see how scattered my mind is. Chinese philosophers describe our emotions to be have the nature of a monkey. Unstable. Leaping from one branch of a tree to another. They describe our thoughts to bare the nature of a horse. Constantly running.
It is the nature of our emotions to keep changing. That's what that differentiate us from lifeless things. But let us be aware of the change and take charge of them.
It is also the nature of our thoughts to flow like a constant stream. But let's guide them will the compass of awareness to ensure that it flows, but at least with our conscious goals.

wow...you have lots of something in you mind right now :D
Karen, thanks so much for visiting me, we have missed u very much at WOAFS and MPG! Happy Wednesday sweetie. :):):)
Your thoughts are indeed random but so fun to read :-)
I like your hairstyle and highlights leh! Longish like this is more feminine lah.
Strangely I am notlooking forwrad to the Europe trip this time. Maybe becos I know it will be cold. Plus everyone will be talking about the gloom in our industry. I'm looking forward to meeting Pink Elephant in London and my friend Cesco in Bath.
Go to Amy's talk only when you have the time. She'll be holding more talks in future I am sure. She has to rush off tonight for a dinner appointment, so I won't be going cos we have no time to chat. But I will see her after Christmas.
Ahahhhhh...this has similarity with one of my posts today. :-)))
Juliana,
Yups ... Too many thoughts. Maybe will short-circuit soon :-)
Hallos Marzie!
Yups sorry ... I will visit more often ok :-) Miss ya!
Ting,
Yups .. I think I think too much at times.
Keep my hair the way it is? My hair is quite thick lah. Thinking of cutting it shorter. Easier to dry after washing in the night.
You don't look forward to Europe? It's beautiful around this time of the year. But like I said, it will be quite cold though.
I did not go for the talk as well. No work or running excuse. Just lazy.
Amel,
I just checked yours out. Yups .. we got quite twin posts today huh.
Hello, I think you need a vacation :) If you love white sand, black sand, brown sand or even pink sand beaches we have all here in the Philippines.
Regarding your comment in my blog about Amarela Resort in Panglao Island. It will cost you about USD105 per night to stay there and have a relaxing vacation.
Hallos Keglar!
I love relaxing vacations! Yups .. I really do need a break. Flying off next Sat for holiday in Yangon, Myanmar :-).
I look forward to visits to lots of temples, pagodas and very simple life there.
