Morning Inspiration: Sunday

My dear friend,

If you live by expecting the worst in your future,
then those predictions are the one who will diminish your assertiveness in choosing a community and job that could make you grow. that strengthen and glorify yourself.

Thus, never become the first who doubt your own chance of being successful, to play a big part in the well-being of your life, for the happiness of your family and others.

Good hopes are good expectations.

Always, expect the best from God and life.

-Mario Teguh

Perspective: Ego

Ego, being an egoist, has it ever been something that sound any close to positive?

Being a compassionate, caring to others, and empathetic had never been as important as in this age where people became even more and more individual.

Being egoistic is bad. At least that’s what I told myself whenever I’m being selfish, telling myself that I should be more considerate the next time I encounter a similar event.

I just had an argument with my GF. She said that I am egoistic, then she asked what I thought about her. Looking back, I stated the same thing. After all, how can people live without their ego?

I began to brainstorm.

Without the ego of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, we won’t have PCs and iPods.

Without Mother Teresa’s ego, lots of people in India would have died out of either poverty or leper.

Without his ego, Einstein wouldn’t have had labelled genius for his theory.

Without his ego, we wouldn’t enjoy Edison’s electric light bulbs.

Without the ego of whoever it is who found fire, we won’t enjoy technology at all.

However:

With his ego, Adam was kicked out of Eden, the beginning of our endless demands.

With the ego of those who built the Tower of Babel, God separated human through languages.

With his ego, Jonah have to go through the trial of the giant fish

With their ego, many world leaders have been brought down by revolts.

With my ego, I’ve made my GF upset.

Yeah, we need ego and we’re living with ego. Whether it’s good health, wealth, beauty, well-being, peace, wisdom, or knowledge, we demand. We never stop demanding. Those demands forged ideals, then ambition. Whether it’s good or bad, we want our ambition to be fulfilled, that’s my definition of ego. My point is that it’s important for us to know our egos.

People who said Illegal Drugs are bad, are being egoistic.

In the other hand, so are the people who said that Illegal Drugs are good.

We all know how bad those Drugs are and how they affect our life. Thus we know that we have to avoid them at all costs, and choosing to avoid them completely is the right ego to follow.

We need egos but not all. Make sure that the ego you’re following is the right one.

End of words, I realized how tl;dr is my blabbering, but bear with it and I hope that you can see the conclusion that I might have missed. Thanks for hearing my piece of mind.

Even the rich are hungry for love, for being cared for, for being wanted, for having someone to call their own.
-Mother Teresa

Doing Time: Writing


So writing, writing, writing. We write all the time, whether it’s for school assignment, work, or even just for fun. I’m not an expert in the theory of writing, so I do hope you guys won’t get bored with this tl;dr blabbering. So, why did it bother me anyway? Not so long ago, I was into writing fiction, but I kept on stopping halfway while it was just about 1-5% of the whole concept. Blog writing, although shorter, pose quite a challenge to me. It was like when I’m halfway through the concept, I clicked on another tab to check on my Facebook updates and poof! I continued writing with another concept instead.

Personally, I thought that writing is a very beautiful art indeed. It’s capable of reaching people’s heart and even change the world. Imagine how math would be without written symbols or when deeds are not written? Human’s brain are way stronger than any super computer, which is why we tend to forget things or even alter things that we remember. Papers however, won’t think as fast, and thus writing helps us very much.

So now, through Sword of August, which is rather short, I hope that I could actually get a piece done. Thus, if you have anything on mind about the game, please do vote and comment!

And as always, please notice the details for Hexion <in this post>. There’s not much from others yet, but expect them anytime soon!

End of words, thanks for reading!

Best regards,

Nite
