Everyone possesses these different facets, regardless of age, gender, race or nationality.
Sometimes we are like Slick,
who abandoned his friend and befriended his friend's enemy.
Or we may be like Scamper,
who never asked who moved his cheese.
Or like Spider,
who transformed herself into an enticing piece of cheese.
Or like Weave,
who persisted in thinking about the relationship between cheese & happiness.
Or like Waver,
who vacillated between the cheese of desires and the cheese of ethics.
Or like Whisper,
who is always scheming to move someone else's cheese.
I just finished reading this book "Whose Cheese Can I Move?" by Chen Tong for the 2nd time. Is a book that I had happened to browse thu the shelves. The cheese can be anything; can represent desires/thoughts/ideas etc in each person. Above are the charteristic of people that the book clasified them into. All the charaters, I met before in my life till now; but the question is I don't really know where I fall into. Waver or Weaver?? hmm....
There is no right or wrong being which type of people.
There is a statement I liked in this book:
'What is life? A maze. What is sucess? To possess your own cheese. What is happiness? To build your life with your own cheese.'
Another statment to think about it:
'Cheese can be friendship, love wealth, power, status, health etc; but it cannot be all these at once. When the cheese give you love, it cannot also give you power. ... When you are pursuing love, you may have to sacrifice money.'
Is a book worth reading. Set the mind thinking... =) Planning to get anther book to read: Who Moved My Cheese? by Spencer Johnson
**Books, Books, Books... Am I a lover of books? erm... no... but I love library!! hahaha.... **

Some friends bring out the very best in you. Other friends consistently leave you feeling like you've been run over by an SUV. Hmm -- maybe it's time to reconsider the relationships that fall in the latter category.
....
Ya, there are some who caused me to feel that I been run over by an SUV. Thoughout the years, there are some. Like what i learnt: People do alight your train at some stations, don't expect them to be with you till the end of your journey. Why do I still hold on to the naive thoughts of "Friends do come & stays"? WHY CAN'T JUST EVERYONE STAYS!?!?!
It is saddening to finally see the actual picture which all along I am escaping. "All are your friends, you remember them today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow; but how many of them you can remember years down the road?" "When you are in trouble, would you call them?" this truth indeed stunned me.
Yup, I admit that there are people that I failed to catch hold to, and let them walk off without saying goodbye.
No worries, I not feeling down. Just some thoughts running since yday. Life is still good when we look ahead. Cheers to Life!! BOO~~ to the humps on the road of Life!!
Don't try to escape from your feelings, nurture them. You will find that deep down you know which way to go. All you need to do is just have faith in yourself and whatever road you decide to take.
Most of the things are there le. but most probably, is the faith I lack of. Sometimes also have to see the place, the time and the person le. Leaving it to fate I guess is the thing for me to do now~ It need 2 hands to clap. In harmony.
有事可做, 有人可爱, 还有梦想可期待。
you shi ke zuo, you ren ke ai, hai you meng xiang ke qi dai.
It means; there is something for you to do, there is someone there for you to love, and there is a dream awaits you.
This is what I registered in mind from Duke Chui.
The fact that the life is short. Is there a thing we are really seriously doing now, or we are just do it to pass time day after day? Is there someone no matter is our family, friends or our the other half, do we really put our heart in to love them? Right now in our life do we have a dream to crave for or work towards? Or we just follow what the life give us?
So this is what I poundering these three days... I don't really able to answer all the above questions, I think I have to find the answers myself. This is what I owe to myself. =)
