Making informed choices.

Was reading some reviews of a few health products (m o) on the net.

Then I thought:

What if these positive reviews were simply a part of the social media strategies to push for the sales of their products (of course their personal product website will portray a positive image of their product)?

What if the negative reviews were done by the competitors to slow down the sales of their competing product?

Not even the comments by "consumers" add much credibility to the effectiveness of the product as they could be planted or done with their own hands. Anyone can simply hide behind the veils and say anything they want.
(On a side note, my professor "acted" that a certain student asked a great question and written down the answer to the query on the group wall, haha! This ain't bad cos my Prof simply highlighted a blind spot that we didn't realize. This was only revealed after we graduated.)

That leaves the consumers to be aware and to be discerning when reading reviews and choosing products.

So yeah, anyway I do have concerns. Cos firstly it's a pretty new product (at most 15-20 results available), and so far 80% of the web searches only state the positive effects of the product.
That rings a bell.
No matter how great something is, there is always some flaw somewhere.

I shall read more to make a more informed choice.

你谂梗未？

发布当天，
如果我告诉你们，我心里有数，你们会相信吗？
如果我告诉你们，我预计非常多得重来，你们会相信吗？
如果我告诉你们，那天特地穿深红色（红润但不抢眼），不是因为祈求好运，而是不想穿地那么阴暗的颜色让大家变得更消沉、更失望，你们相信吗？

你们不相信，也是必然，因为听起来就像马后炮。不过，我知道的。 当然，不出我所料的也太多、太多了。至少四名让我无法相信事实…

沉淀了几天，才渐渐平复自己的心情起伏。

你不必向任何人报到，但是你必须是问心无愧的，尽心尽力地竭尽所能。
是的。
倒是暂停的计划又再涌现心头——我的决定是对的吗？后悔了吗？惋惜了吗？疲惫了吗？自责了吗？想通了吗？确定了吗？

所以，有时候，我真的心中非常矛盾和挣扎。
以前为自己的奋斗，一分耕耘一分收获 。
现在，你栽下多少心血，你耕耘，但是天不作美，有时候无法见效。
係咪太傻、傻B咗？你这个傻仔，你冇咁执着！
放长来看，只可惜人们只有眼前的利益，想不到以后种子的发芽。

那么糟了，现在他们另一群人如此的态度，我又有那是那种感觉，我该如何扭转大家的心态呢？
不要让历史重演！
我要改变！就从现在开始！

我终究定系个傻仔。

业力

不是冤家不聚头。
真的要好好忏悔，尽除违缘，顺缘增长。
不想造的违缘竟然会如此辗转下去……

Ahhh. Things unfolded as karma has it (in for us). It's inevitable that we played a role in how things turned out, though not pivotal, but consequential changes were felt. The butterfly effect in present state that sends ripples to future happenings that go wide and far.
Let it not turn for the worse.
Powerless to alter/halt its start, but at least we've got a choice in the process.

とてもお疲れた。と痛い。
休みが欲しい。

Sometimes, there are so many circumstances that we can't understand.
If only we can really take a minute to stand in another's shoes (only if there's disclosure).
Could we have done anything more?
Are there ways we could have helped??

~ whatever happens, happens for a reason. =)

Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers
but to be fearless in facing them.
Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain
but for the heart to conquer it.
Let me not look for allies in life's battlefield
but to my own strength.
Let me not crave in anxious fear to be saved
but hope for the patience to win my freedom.

——Tagore

让我不要祈祷在险恶中得到庇护，但祈祷能无畏的面对它们；
让我不祈求我的痛苦会停止 但求我的心能征服它；
让我在生命的战场上不盼望同盟，而使用我自己的力量；
让我不在忧虑的恐怖中渴望被救，但希望用坚忍来获得我的自由。

——泰戈尔《我的祈祷》

要拥有 必先懂失去 怎接受

So morbid sounding after a long weekend.. but this lyrics struck a chord. Or rather, that's the lyric (besides the melody and prowess of the singer) that caught my attention when I first heard this song. 




Just wanna post something. Anything.




Cherish & be grateful always. =)
Happy Birthday Singapore. =)
