Will it be just Coincidence?

Late night, I am sleepy and tired after the whole day work and exercise. However, i have an urge to write down something that give me an "Invisible" push. A push that give me a bit of confidence to move forward.


Last friday, i planned to visit to Si Ma Street Guanyin Temple during my lunch hours. A temple that is famous for the accuracy of prediction. In order to show my sincerity, i intended to buy a flower. I went to one of the flower pushcarts. Among 3 colors, Pink, Yellow and White.. My first thought is to get the White flower but I could not make a decision. The flower auntie helped me to make a decision. End up i took her advice to buy White flower since i had already decided to get white instead.


As usual practice, we need to pray before entering the main hall. I put my flower in one of the vases. Then straight to get 一瓶签 and 圣杯. I went to the centre of big red carpet which is crowded with devoted people praying and asking questions.


I went up and knee down in the middle of the red carpet. I started to ask questions.


First question, i asked about my career. To be exact, i asked if i am able to change a new job within this year. Will i be contented with my new job?


In the end, i got the number 86.


Second question, perhaps my age is catching up or the stress surround me. Most of my friends are either attached or married. I asked will my next relationship be a successful good one?


In the end, i got the number 62.


Third question, i asked when can i meet my Mr Right? She was unable to give me an answer as i had 2 times rejected 圣杯, i asked her whether she wished to answer my question. No doubt, she was willing to. However, i threw 4 times of rejected 圣杯afer getting different number 签. I decided to give it a miss. Thinking that i maybe asking a question that is supposed to be a secret.


Fortunately, i got 2 good 签. I was so happy. When i intended to burn another 签 that has been hidden in my wallet. I brought it out and i was shocked that i got the same number 86. THe number 86 was actually got it a few years.


In the end, i chose to burn the new 签 and keep the old one in my wallet again.


Was it a coincidence? Or is she giving me a hint? Is she telling me not to give up? No matter what, I felt that this invisible push me to have confidence to face my future.


Hope everythings turn out what i want or better.

Simple Life, Simple Aims!

A few days ago, I just met up with ZQ, a financial adviser who is my sister’s NTU friend. He is still considering a young chap to me because I am older than him by 3 years. The overall conversation was good. Initially, I could sense his nervousness. In order to ease his tension, I talked to him in an informal way. Eventually, he was comfortable to talk to me and I was very open towards my current financial situation. Perhaps, I felt happier after the conversations as this talk indeed helped me to face myself more direct and understand what I should plan for my future.

Though I have to clear a debt that does not belong to mine, I have to bear the responsibility to clear it. “只能怪我愚昧,信错了一个伪君子!” However, I did a wise thing that happened half year plus ago.

Right now, my priority is to clear all my debts and start my savings from scratch again. Still, this is always my resolution is to find a new job in this year that allows me to have good pay and prospect.

Hope I can do it by this year, 2012….
