The Mayonnaise Jar and Two Cups of Coffee

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the two cups of coffee.

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him.

When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full they agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous "yes."

The professor then produced two cups of coffee from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar, effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

"Now," said the professor, as the laughter subsided, "I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things: your God, family, your children, your health, your friends, and your favorite passions -- things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.

The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job or your business, your house, and your car.

The sand is everything else -- the small stuff.

If you put the sand into the jar first," he continued, "there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups, look after your health. Take your partner out to dinner. Play another 18 holes, walk another mile or go to the gym. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal."

"Take care of the golf balls first -- the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.

The professor smiled. "I'm glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend."

From friend's email

book on "preparing for death and helping the dying - a buddhist perspective "

This week I picked up the above book (by Ven Sangye Khadro) free of charge from one of the buddhist books/CDs/materials distributing point at the corridor infront of a hair salon in Yishun Avenue 5.

2. It is really interesting and beneficial. It deals with:-

a. Buddhist Perspective on Death,
b. How to Prepare for Death,
c. Helping Others who are Dying. Two important parts are:-
1) How to help someone who is a Buddhist and
2) How to help someone who is NOT a Buddhist.

3. The material from this book is from two sources: Buddhist teachings and contemporary writings in the field of caring for the dying. A list of recommended books is provided at the end of the book.

4. It is an eye-opener for everyone as everyone will one day pass away. It will also guide people on how to help those who are dying. Very often, people do not know what to do or say when coming across someone who is dying.

5. Instead of being in discomfort thinking death will be terrible, painful and depressing experience, think about:-

a. "Dying can be a time of learning and growth;
b. a time of deepening our love,
c. our awareness of what is important in life, and
d. our faith and commitment to spiritual beliefs and practices."

6. The book said" Death is a reality, a fact of life, so wouldn't it be better to approach it with openness and acceptance, rather than fear and denial."

7. In short, it about how our mind should think, how to remain calm and how to die gracefully. In the course of reading the book and thinking about it, it also encourages us and guide us how to live ethically so that when someone dies or when it is our turn to die, we will not have any regrets and how the mind will always remain positive and calm.

8. There is list of hospice care service in Singapore with addresses, tel and email addresses at the rear of book.

Reading Dr Tan Kheng Khoo's website on Meditation

I met an old friend and former neighbour one day at Lor 8 Toa Payoh market. During our chit chat we also touch on Buddhism. When talking about meditation, he mentioned about Dr K. K. Tan, well known meditation teacher, and gave me the website address. I managed to locate Dr K K Tan's homepage address after a few attempts. See the following websites:-

http:// www.kktanhp.com

http:// www.kktanhp.com/doctoring.htm

I find his website interesting and beneficial as I am a keen learner of Buddhism, meditation esp Vipassana, Anapanasati- Mindfulness With Breathing. The knowledge enables me to have a deeper understanding of Buddhism and Meditation. Combining meditation with Yoga is indeed beneficial holistically for both body and mind and can overcome much worries, pain, anxiety. From my own experience, I experienced peace and harmony in daily living and I try to share this knowledge and experience whenever possible, without offending anyone and respecting their choice and situation.

Interesting Story - What appears to be safe now, may hurt you, even seriously, later

The following is from an email circulated to me today. The moral of the story is ...what seems to unconcern you may in fact later cause serious harm to you...Read on and see what way, we in our own individual effort, can save the environment, pollution, help those who are seriously in need, etc.

The story goes like this:

One day, a mouse looked through the crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package. He thought: What food might this contain?

The mouse wondered and he was devastated to discover it was a mousetrap. Alarmed. Retreating to the farmyard, the mouse proclaimed the warning :
There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!'

The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said,

'Mr..Mouse, I can tell this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by it.'

The mouse turned to the pig and told him,
'There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!'
The pig sympathized, but said, I am so very sorry, Mr.Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it . Be I will be thinking of you.'

The mouse turned to the cow and said
'There is a mousetrap in the house! There is a mousetrap in the house!'
The cow said, 'Wow, Mr. Mouse. I'm sorry for you, but it's no skin off my nose.'

So, the mouse returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the farmer's mousetrap . . . alone.

That very night a sound was heard throughout the house -- like the sound of a mousetrap catching its prey.

The farmer's wife rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness, she did not see it was a venomous snake whose tail the trap had caught.

The snake bit the farmer's wife.

The farmer rushed her to the hospital , and she returned home with a fever.

Everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's main ingredient.

But his wife's sickness continued, so friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock. To feed them, the farmer butchered the pig.

The farmer's wife did not get well; she died. So many people came for her funeral, the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide enough meat for all of them.

The mouse looked upon it all from his crack in the wall with great sadness.

So, the next time you hear someone is facing a problem and think it doesn’t concern you, remember ---

when one of us is threatened, we are all at risk. We are all involved in this journey called Life.

We must keep an eye out for one another and make an extra effort to encourage one another.

SEND THIS TO EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER HELPED YOU OUT AND LET THEM KNOW HOW IMPORTANT THEY ARE.

REMEMBER . . .EACH OF US IS A VITAL THREAD IN ANOTHER PERSON'S TAPESTRY;

OUR LIVES ARE WOVEN TOGETHER FOR A REASON.

*One of the best things to hold onto in this world is a FRIEND ! ! !*

YOGA AS MEDICINE, A Yoga Journal Book By Timothy McCall, M.D. and "things to do now that you're retired"

Few days earlier my nephew gave me this book "YOGA AS MEDICINE, A Yoga Journal Book By Timothy McCall, M.D." and another book "things to do now that you're retired" by Jane Garton.

I am half way through the first book and had glanced through the second book. At this stage I can say that this book will very beneficial to all Yogis as the correct understanding of the principles, the body, the body flow and the mind will go a long way to improve the body, mind and feeling. Thus health will be much improved and may also avoid many unnecessary surgeries.

The book Yoga As Medicine deals with how to overcome pains in joints, backpain, asthma, etc. If such knowledge can be brought to many, many people, then numerous people can benefit. But I think it is not easy as many people have their own beliefs and assumptions and have much tendency to listen to hearsay.

With knowledge and practice, the experience will be very pleasant and money cannot buy.

I will continue to read, re-read, and re-read and practice yoga with meditation and hope to share further in my blog or with friends and those who wish to know too. I must say I am no expert but a continous learner who can only share. Decision will rest with whoever heard the knowledge.

The other book "things to do now that you are retired" give a wide range of things one can do and how it can enlightened our lives....there are the simple things and not so simple but do-able things to do..least of all give inspirations when one is at a stand-still...

My Experience - Recover From Knee Joint Pain Twice - Glucosamine And Chondroitin Helps

In Mar 2008, whilst waiting to see our respective doctors at SGH, I met an old friend. We talked about all kinds of things and life. In the course of our chit chat, he mentioned that he suffered from knee pain. I told him of my experience and how I recovered that I am now able to jog quite fast and that both my leg muscles had improved much. As requested, I provide some details of my experience and the relevant photos etc and hope the information would be useful.

After that, I thought that it would be a good idea to share my experience in this blog and it is up to individuals to whether to listen to my experience or to adapt it into their plan to improve themselves.

My experience goes like this:

Sometime in Feb 2006, I suffered much pain on my left knee. I could only walk slowly.

I took an x-ray and the doctor told me my knee cartilage had worn out. He recommended me to take glucosamine.

I heard plenty of advice on how to take care of health and knee joints:-

a. Do not jog or run as the pounding will cause the knee joint to worsen.
b. Walk is a good exercise. Swimming is better as there is no load on the knee joint.
c. Advices to take all kinds and variations of glucosamine, herbs, etc.

I tried all kinds of advice with appreciation but after many months, there was no improvement. Gradually, I noticed that the muscles on my thigh, shin and ankle began to weaken and soften. The muscles and flesh look and feel more like soya bean paste what Chinese call "Tow Hoo".

When I board the bus or go up the stairs, I had to use my hand to hold the railing to pull my body up. When I alight from the bus or go down the stairs, I could not land my feet properly and feel like I was going to crush down. I had to hold on to the railing and put one foot down at a time.

I thought that at this rate I was going to shrink and diminish. I had unconsciously become a weakling and had to hope that some saints/saviour or great medical invention appeared quickly to help me recover.

I planned to search for the right type of food and joint supplements or to find the right doctor/physician and to think how I could improve and get my knee joints to recover and the leg muscles to strengthen.

One day in 2006, I went to the SGH pharmacy shop and an elderly lady staff informed me that I need to take chondroitin to ease the pain in order to speed up the recovery. So I believe her and tried. It is successful for me . Before that I took only glucosamine and it does seem to improve much. Click: Jointcare Glucosamine & Chondroitin 30S. This package also contain Omega 3.

I took one tablet per day for 3 months ie 3 boxes and overcome the pain and swell in my knee joint, after which I walk slowly at first. Then faster, Then jog a little and later increase some speed. This improve the muscle at the ankle, knee and muscles in the leg alot. My left knee had recovered. I enjoyed my jogging, although not fast. MUST BE PATIENT, AS IMPATIENCE CAUSE INJURY.

Later, again in 2007, this time was my right knee suffered from joint pain. I massaged it hoping to improve faster but it got worse. This time, the right knee was, in fact, much more painful. I also took the same action ie to consume Glucosame and Chrontin as done earlier. As I was feeling continuous and constant pain (what the Chinese say as "Suan Toong"), I used pain soothing gel to get some pain relief but not much relief. To relieve the constant pain, I sought acupuncture treat at Chung Hwa Free Clinic in Yishun for pain relief. I had acupuncture twice a week for a few weeks to relief pain. In the meantime, I continued with glucosamine, chrontin & Omega3 and I walked slowly. I also used Yoga method to work and improve the leg, ankle and knee muscles. It worked.

Now both my knees are ok. I am now learning how to keep my knee joints in good shape and strength.

Sometime in Feb 2008, a pharmacy staff in Yishun recommended me another (Joint Guard ) which I am trying. This time it contains not only glucosamine, chondroitin but also MSM, willow bark and devil's claw. But it does not have OMEGA 3, which I will have to take separately.

The label on the Joint Guard stated as follows:

Chrondroitin sulphate helps promote fluid balance & elasticity in cartilage and inhibit enzymes that break down cartilage.

Willow bark and Devil's claw have been used traditionally to combat many painful conditions, allowing better mobility.

MSM - bio available sulphur which amongs other thing arrests inflammation and as a natural pain reliever.

Most importanlyly, one has to see how best one can work out one's strategy that best suit one's body. I believe that one know ownself best.

Naval Base Secondary School

Click hyperlinks here for

(1) the present website of Naval Base Secondary School @ http://www.navalbasesec.moe.edu.sg and

(2) the NBSS School Magazine @ http://www.angelfire.com/biz7/kys

Click on “Principal”, “Top Scholar”, "School Staff", “Editorial”, "Art Club" and others in the said website for information.

I happened to visit the Naval Base Secondary School website and remembered that few months ago I met some other old classmates, talked about the old times and the school magazine. As I have posted the entire magazine on to my website, I thought it would be good to connect them here for the benefit of those who may like to see them.

The school magazine was introduced by the then principal Mr R. W. Mosbergen when the school achieved top results. See who is the top scholar who scored 8A1s in the 1965 Cambridge School Certificate Examination and later became a Member of Parliament. Much later the NBSS Alumni was also started. The principal who was posted to the school in 1965 introduced "Little Olympics" and everyone had a chance at sport. ECA was very active. Amongst others, he also introduced the school song.

Mr G Haridas, Mr Teo Lye Huat and Mrs Thampuran were my best teachers as I had made much improvements in subjects taught by them. They taught art, history and biology respectively. They were patient and dedicated teachers. Mr Haridas organised many field trips for members of the art class and facilitated the students to take part in several school and external art competitions. Mr Teo Lye Huat and Mrs Thampuran were very good story tellers who captured our attention. They would also write lengthy notes on the black board for students. Many of us improved our results and some win prizes. To me, school days were very memorable.

See who's who in the magazine and the old pictures of places that were once there. The famous football and sports family also attended this school. There were many notable others too. This was the only English stream secondary school in the north of Singapore in the 50s and 60s.

At that time, if there was no this English stream secondary school, many of the older generation (from poor families) at that time, may not have a chance to attend an English stream secondary school. At that time, the then Thomson Secondary (opposite the present old Police Academy at Thomson Road) was the nearest Chinese stream secondary school.

Sometime in the later part of the 60s, Chinese educated from the Chinese Primary Schools nearby were admitted to Naval Base Secondary School. However, many find difficulties in coping with the subjects taught in English. It was believed that many dropped-out after Secondary One.

Much later, another Chinese stream secondary school (believed to be Upper Thomson Secondary School) was set up near Spring Leaf Estate to cater to the Chinese educated.

But life was simple then. Compared to now, late bloomers in the English stream then, have a chance to do well, as those who fail, can just be transferred to the next level from Secondary One to Secondary Four and have a shot at the School Certificate Examination.

Appreciation of life

I often watch TV and listen to news. I learn about the human world and the animal world. Life is stressful and often a struggle.

After retirement, I got hold of the many free books and booklets lying on shelves in various parts of the shopping corridors in Singapore. I learned about oneself and how to develop our mind. I tried to practice and I find it useful. Re-reading is even better. It is constant reminder until it is in our nature.

I learn to be appreciative about our life and things that go on around us and thank our blessings. I learn to live within my means and enjoy simple pleasures. It is all in the mind.

I wonder how nice it would be if I had the opportunity to read such books much earlier. Appreciate all who provide such opportunities to those who want it.

Holistic Health & Happiness Benefits - I belief and share......

Situation

1. As one gets older, one gets to hear more and more about other people, esp older ones, suffering from various kinds of diseases, aches and pains. Discussion would centre on treatment by Western or Traditional Medicine, exercise and how to deal with them. Some also talk about religious healings.Treatment appears to be the main course of action. Some may do simple exercises.

2. I tried to share my limited knowledge and experience with them. But I expect that it is not convincing and unlikely to be even considered, much less tried. However, as my limited knowledge practice continue to benefit me in terms of bodily and mental health, I have a strong urge to share them to benefit others.

My Limited Knowledge, Experience & Belief

3. I think that a person, with advice from his doctor, should be able to best assess and judge his own standard/seriousness of his bodily own health. One should only describe accurately and not over describe as it can lead to serious consequences. If possible, if not of any immediate danger, one should also observe for a while before approaching the doctor.

4. However, as I continue to practise and learn more about Yoga and few kinds of meditation, I think not only exercises, but the other 4 parts of Yoga, are just as important, if not more important.

5. Yoga, it seems, have 5 parts: exercise, breathing, relaxation, diet, meditation.

a. Exercise is important but is grossly NOT ENOUGH.

b. Breathing - There are basically 3 kinds of breathing. In Yoga one should maximise breathing using and expanding and contracting the diaphragm and the rib case. It ensures maximisation in using the lungs and absorbing maximum fresh oxygen and at the same time clearing away bad/stale air inside the lungs.

c. Relaxation - One can exercise and rest, etc but not enough. The tension in various muscles in the body are not relaxed as it should be. It remains tensed without you knowing. Tensed muscles use up energy. I think that tensed muscles may also affect blood circulation and may lead to other problems. Using Yoga postures and using the mind to feel and activate the relaxation of the various muscles from head to toe is wonderful. You must know and experience it to believe. I have not learn and experienced this before until after my retirement when I have more time to do things I want.

d. Diet (Food) - provide nutrition and energy . Easy to get food into the body but difficult to get unwanted substance out from the body. It most likely will clog up the body system giving rise to various problems. In one article, I learn that plants and vegetables obtain energy direct from the sun. If one is eating only plants and vegetables, then one is getting primary source of energy. Those who eat plant-eating-animals, would be considered as getting secondary source of energy. Even the flesh-eating-animals would be getting secondary source of energy. For a person to eat flesh-eating-animals, I think, should be considered as eating third sources of energy. By interpretation and projection, the more direct one gets the energy, the higher its value and usefulness. One may also be eating contaminated sources if one consume indirect sources of energy. I am not sure but sound logical. The simple reasoning is, why contaminate your body.

I think, One should "eat to live" and SHOULD NOT "live to eat".
I think, One should also eat just enough and not overeat as your body will have to
carry extra unwanted and unsightly weight.

e. Meditation - Yoga (with various postures) can go quite a long way but meditation can lead to full relaxation leading to a happier and healthier life. You must do it to belief. Do you know how wonderful the feeling is after Yoga? Do you know how wonderful it is during and after Meditation? Certain Yoga postures can also give you massaged feelings. Bodily exercises and postures can help relax the body. However, the mind must also be relaxed as the mind is the one to activate the muscles to relax and to feel the relaxation. If you are NOT present (ie your mind is somewhere else) at the moment of the exercise and meditation, you will not be able to feel relaxed or happy.

Choose the type of meditation suitable for you. Although I have read many articles and some books on Yoga, I am not an authority on this and I do not wish to go further into the spiritual discussion to avoid any misunderstanding or controversy. I think, it is best left to the individual to decide for oneself what is appropriate and beneficial.

One need to read or learn and practise to really belief and benefit.
Words above is far from enough to give a whole picture.

6. But in summary - I belief practising all 5 parts will lead to healthy and happy life. Body is well maintained. Blood circulation, like cars on the roads, will be able to travel freely through the blood vessels (like roads) and all nutrients (including oxygen) will be brought to the various parts of the body to function well and all waste will be disposed off properly if there is no blockages.

7. Hope above can inspire people to live better and happier lifes.

Taking A Break......

When I retired in 2004, I became a real estate agent as I have been following the property scene for a long time. I joined C & H Properties Pte Ltd, went through the comprehensive in house training, took up the commercial property course and then took up CEHA course. I took the examination ( 3 papers) and passed CEHA (Common Examination For House Agents). Secretariat for CEHA c/o Singapore Institute of Surveyors and Valuers award the CEHA certificate.

I tried and succeeded. It is a very competitive business which involve working during evenings, public holidays, school holidays and weekends when buyers and sellers are free. After having achieved success, I will take a short break to enjoy new experiences and other interests/hobbies etc. See my website concerned: http://www.angelfire.com/biz7/kys/

Yoga Teacher From India

This morning, Mr Devinder Pal Marria, joined the group of Yoga enthusiasts in Yishun Park. He was on two weeks visit to Singapore as his son's family is staying in Yishun Housing Estate. He has been teaching Yoga to them more a year ago after which he returned to India to work. During his occasional visit to Singapore he would also visit the yoga group in Yishun Park and give the finer points of Yoga. He said that Yoga is good for the mind, body and spirit. We hope to learn more finer points on Yoga from him.

Update-30Aug05: Mr Devinder Pal Marria turned up every morning and was happy to meet everyone there. He also visited another group of Yoga enthusiasts at the open area beside Blk 366 Yishun Ring Road where other lead trainers were present for the Yoga sessions. This group practise every wednesday and saturday evenings. Mr Marria would be returning to India this Sunday but will return again during his next vacation. The Yoga enthusiasts were appreciative of his contributions.

Internet-ing, putting up websites etc is indeed interesting

Internet-ing is also one of my hobby.

I like to surf the internet for information. There are just too much of information that one can choose. Interesting topics would be downloaded into my PDA and I could read wherever and whenever I could. Surfing internet including various internet forums and sites really give you an up to date sense of the world ticking away every seconds. This supplements the newspapers and tv news and reports. Some peoples' moods, happiness, frustrations, etc can also be felt. One can read and watch opposing views as well as the wide range of views - concern, grateful, frustrated, etc.

I started learning Frontpage and practise putting up websites. I would toy with different webpages, templates or design them. Since I am into real estate business, I got plenty of material to put into the website. Photographs obtained would be loaded on to the website to give viewers a good picture of the properties etc as a picture is worth more than a thousand words. It is interesting in that internet users from all over the world could reach you. The website is also a great advertisement and communication tool. I would state when I contactable or not contactable, overseas, etc for information of those concerned.

Initially I started some courses on various computer programmes and putting up of websites. With interests and practice I improved day by day. Initially, only those who read my name cards, newspaper advertisements, flyers, etc get to access my website. Later through search engines, one could also get to my website at http://www.angelfire.com/biz7/kys/. Simply type my name, initial, Mobile/HP number or relevant type/location of properties to do the search.

Is Yoga for the young and nimble only? Not so, as I found out....

What a surprise...

At first, I thought that Yoga involves bending various parts of the body, hands and legs and that people like me is too old to learn or practise Yoga. I thought that my body, hands and legs would be too stiff and hardened and it would be very painful to take part in Yoga. I can only admire and envy those who are able to enjoy Yoga and its benefits.

One fine morning, after some morning exercise at Yishun Nature Park, my wife and I took our breakfast in Neighbour 4 coffee shop and there we were gathered with some other friends chit chatting away. All are body fit enthusiasts.

In the course of the conversation, my wife and I were surprised to learn from a Yoga practitioner and trainer who informed us that we were not too old to learn as we could choose the various positions to fit our profile. We were informed that Yoga sessions have been going on for free for sometime and we would certainly benefit from the Yoga sessions.

Without wasting any more time, my wife and I head for the sports shop and got one mat each. The next morning come and off we went to Yishun Nature Park to join our Yoga friends, young and old, some even older than us. I was surprised that much older people can do Yoga rather well. Initially, the stretching seems easy but not the various poses which require much flexibility. After a few days of stretching, we found many of our body parts tired and aching. With persistence, we now found Yoga enjoyable and our bodies have become much more nimble and flexible, even at our age.

One clear outcome was the swell in my painful knee joint having subsided completely within a short period and I was able to use the knee as normal.

Most are residents in Yishun with some coming from Thomson Road, Hougang, etc.

We made more friends in the neighbourhood and get to know the neighbourhood even better. My appreciation to the lead trainers who turn up to lead the group in Yoga practices without anything in return...

This is just the beginning. How much benefit/s Yoga will be bring remains to be seen provided my wife and I continue to practice earnestly.

First blogging, Add-On PHOTOGRAPHS, LINKS

This is the first time blogging. So must proceed carefully, not to hurt anyone in anyway. My principle is to apologise if I make any mistake or make any wrong move and to learn from it. But not to try new things, seemingly moral and legal, is not being adventurous. .....................................................................................................................................................................
