Money, Success, Fame, Glamour



I guess some of my friends wondering where have i been these days. I seldom take on any fashion styling jobs, nor do they see me anywhere in parties and events. Maybe some even thought that I got tired of the scene, nah, not that; i will never get tired of good music and my friends. I just happened to want to find out more about life.

Since young, I have never accepted death as an end for human life. And I don't believe in any religion that promised "eternal" happiness. I believe life is more, so much more; we just gotta make it happen "our way". You see, I never stop in searching for an answer. Whatever i do, i go extreme. Just like fashion, I don't want to be just any ordinary fashion stylist; I want it my way. Even in my country, so little appreciate what I do. But I insist, and that actually added to my disadvantage. Then it comes to being a clubkid, I do not care what others think. I dressed my way. I never stop. But along the way, I am still searching. NONE of those gave me any sense of security. I want. Yes. I am a greedy little bitch.



Anyway, to cut a long story short. I found a wonderful spiritual guide, read his book and found a place someday. KECHARA. That is how my spiritual journey started. One Book, one place and one guru changed my life. How ironic, for a person who never believe in religion and I proudly called myself a Buddhist now.

Well, am I going to preach about religion day and night? I am afraid I am not enlightened yet to guide you... hehe. So am I now saying partying, sex and rock n roll are bad? No, I just went to The Gossip's concert two weeks ago and danced my night away! (well, until my friend lost her phone.)

Why am i writing this? No reasons. I just want to share my thoughts. That night, me and my spiritual guide, my kind guru had a chit-chatting session. Well, maybe there is some deep dharma teachings lies beneath and i am too dumb to figure out. Yes, we talked about David Bowie, Grace Jones and Madonna... WHAT?

Yes. That's my cool guru His Eminence Tsem Tulku Rinpoche. That is how I learned the dharma.

hehe.

Beautiful Woman who's not beautiful anymore...


What is your impression of a woman? Majority will say, gentle, caring, sweet, beautiful, sexy, passionate.. all kinds of nice things. It is actually just our perception. What if one holds wrong view and conduct wrong actions?

Take a look at these women. They are totally not inspiring at all. Not only they are conducting wrong actions, they even educate their own kids to do so. We heard men kill, but today i found out, women kill too. Yes, afterall mankind kill to survive. We kill daily for our taste buds, for that nice crab or fish on our dinner plate. Animals suffer for us. For pleasure.

Think about that.

Stay Real if you are Malaysian



Came across this early morning. Some random people sent it to me to check out. There are hundreds of country or political bashing songs and videos on the internet but hardly came across any encourage statement.

So I thought this video has achieved that. Simple and a clear message, especially I really how the composer integrate harmony between races and religion. Like what it said. It is by Penangboy. Very honest and sincere approach!

It could just "The One Malaysian" song... hehe
