the second blog of the year...

This year started with a bang? Well, since is my second blog of the year, I don think it has been a bang so far! Got my first migraine/headache of the year last sunday! My nose has been sniffing and blocked for the past 4 days and don seems to be recovering! I have also twisted my ankle last Tuesday while crossing the road. OK it din happen because I was looking at some handsome guys. It would have been better if it had happened because I was eyeing some guys but too bad it just happened while i was walking innocently across the road!

The FD musical training is underway now and we are into the last second week of trainings and rehearsals. There are still quite a lot of things that need to be ironed out! Since I m supposed to do singing, I feel the singers are not getting the feel of the music! Next week will be the week to get it all done!

Just completed a 3 days workshop at the Navy. I did learn quite a lot of things from the workshop and in between i also did a presentation on IAQ to the participant. This is my first external presentation! I won say I did a good job but there is really room for improvement! It is a learning experience in so many areas and contrary to what I tot before the workshop, the people there are exactly very nice! Hopefully there is other chance that I can do the same thing again!

To end this, let's quote from Ikeda Sensei again from "Words of Wisdom"

"Of course, people want to live long. But in the end, what matters more is what we have been able to leave behind -- the value we have created in our lives, the number of people we have made happy and how much we have been able to grow and expand as a person. "

Today my fellow buddhists were telling me how those reactions that I got from the boss could be just a reflection of the causes in my life. It is precisely because of these causes that I got the effect. The effect could be elements that I should change in my life. Changing the causes thus transforming them into postive influence in my life. Probably this is precisely what it means to do human revolution.
