WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD 

WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD

(George Weiss / Bob Thiele)

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shakin' hands, sayin' "How do you do?"
They're really saying "I love you"

I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world

Oh yeah

Children as an investment?

long time no post ... nevertheless read thru an interesting article regarding having children as investment(thank god i still know how to read) ... some food for thought and I shall post the writing below for the benefit of mankind :) ..... In the agrarian age where agriculture was the key economy and manual labour is required, children are great assets for they can help out in the farm.

We were raised the mantra: study hard, get a good education, get a good job("Don't be like me!") and you will be success in life. By "good", they meant something like becoming a doctor, lawyer or engineer. So, we do the same thing with our children. Though we may not expect anything, we are ho...

Good to pass this on ...

This is a powerful message in our modern society. We seemed to have lost our bearings & our sense of direction.  One, young, academically excellent person went to apply for a managerial position in a big company. He passed the first interview. The director who did the last interview, made the last decision. The director discovered from the CV that the youth's academic achievements were excellent all the way, from the secondary school until the postgraduate research. He never had a year when he did not score. The director asked, "Did you obtain any scholarships in school?" The youth answered "none". The director asked, " Was it your father who paid for your school fees?" The youth answered, "My father passed away when I was one year old. It was my mother who paid for my school fees.”   The director asked, " Where did your mother work?" The youth answered, "My mother worked as a clothes cleaner. The director requested th...

Uncovering Hidden Opportunities

"Wherever you are, whatever your circumstances may be, whatever misfortune you may have suffered, the music of your life has not gone. It's inside you -- if you listen to it, you can play it." - Nido Qubein - Uncovering Hidden Opportunities …Brian Parsley I cringe when I hear people complain about limited opportunities. Opportunities in business and life are plenty when your awareness is high and you're looking in the right places. Where are you looking? How do you find hidden opportunities? Why is it some people seem to uncover the best opportunities and other never do? Answer. Because the ones who do understand if it appears on the surface to be a great opportunity, it's probably not. The best opportunities are the ones that are there the entire time, but not everyone sees them. Have you ever said I wish I had thought of that idea? Here are a couple of strategies to help you find hidden opportunities: Having keen awareness. Without looking away from your compute...
