What's Next???

HAHAHAAHAHAHA!!!!! I am now listening to FM93.3, the Y-Y yu le zhan program. Mr Jia Zhen Jing said: Oh our local singer Lin Junjie won the taiwan best new comer award, and he thanked God for the award. Mr Jia Zhen Jing added that of cos he can thank God, but we dun need another Ho-Yeow-Sun... wahahahha.....

Yeaps, i just got back from jogging. Am feeling very light today, quite contrary to last week. Exercising helps! And I guess i am gradually adapting to my workplace. Getting more used to the people and environment. But still, there are new arrows throwing at me everyday, and i hope i can take them off graciously. But its still too early to tell...

Today, i tried to inject some Dharma elements at my work place. I purposely brought in some Dharma topics during lunch time to my foreman and manager. My manager is a typical young fellow who is not interested in religion, but his career and family. My foreman seems to know a lot on Buddhism, and he thinks our life is pretty much fated. Although it kinda contradicts the often-heard Dharma teachings, i still agree with him.

They were shocked when they learnt that i dun intend to start a family and bear children. My foreman thought if i dun 'produce' offsprings this life, i will not be born a human being next life. This is somehow similar to what Ven Yuan Fan said on homosexuality. Sad to say, they will not be reborn as human beings becos they dun produce children. But i am thinking wat abt nuns and monks then? haha..... anyway ppl out there, jus take my words as a pinch of salt :D

My colleagues also told me that although they are pro-buddhism, they find that the propagation of Dharma in the local scene is not professional enough. True, becos we lack the resources and heart to do so, compared to other religions. This sunday big walk is an unfortunate incident. Do you call it bad karma or poor plannings?

But as a buddhist, of cos i will choose to support the buddhist community, and for volunteer work, priority shld be given to buddhist organisations. One may argue that we shld not be selective when offering dana, but if we dun support these buddhist organisations first, who else can we expect to do so? And well done PKS, they have come out with this "Volunteer membership" which i thot is a pretty good idea. Having joined in as a member, i will be informed and encouraged from time to time to lend my helping hand, and it kinda remove the inertia and laziness which i foresee i will have in the future when i wanna help.

Oh well, i simply love chunkit's blog entry, the one he stated that a lot of ppl ened up spending money buying liabilities instead of assets. In other words, they thought they have gained assets but ended up incurring liabilities. But i hope we r not too blinded by greed, which is one of the 3 greatest poisons in buddhism.
