Random Thoughts (1)

To be or not to be, the meaninglessness of Samsara, or the nullness of Nirvana?

Trial and Commitment

The other day, I went to supermarket.


"Our new flavor, please give it a try." I was stopped by an ice cream promoter.
"What to lose, just a try." I thought to myself, and took over the small sampling cup.
.......

"Please also give this one a try, I bet you would love it too." Smiling, she presented me a second cup.
.......

"And, this, is our all time favorite. You won't want to miss it. .....!@#......$%^......&*+......"
Here we go, a third one......

.......

20 minutes later, I am 2 kilos heavier and 20 bucks poorer.

Why blog?

To set up a beacon so like-minded bugs flock.

Knowing the Limit

On top of the cliff, a blindfolded man inches towards the edge...
With each step, he shouts, "Be bold!"
So...
"Be bold!"
"Be bold!"
...
"Be bold!"
"N....o....t........ t....o....o........ b....o....l....d........"

Conflicts

YMW: "Mr. Buffett, how do you resolve a conflict?"

Warren Buffett: "Don't get into one."

YMW: "What if you are already in a conflict?"

Warren Buffett: "Get out of it."

YMW: "What if you can not get out of it?"

Warren Buffett: "Well, if you can't, you have no control. Stop thinking about it."

Wise Man

Aesop: "Boy, it seems people in your days think I am a wise man. I don't understand why."

YMW: "It is because you are blind."

Aesop: "..."

YMW: "If you can't see, you must listen."

Organisation and Culture

Charlie Munger: "Boy, you're like a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest."

YMW: "Not too bad. I still have two hands. I can use one of them to cover my ass."

Charlie Munger: "What you are going to do with your other hand, then?"

YMW: "Well, I point it to some other contestant, and shout, 'Look! He's not covering his ass!'."

怀旧

“那天到电影院看《变形金刚》，当看到影片中擎天柱首次亮相的场景：先是精彩震撼的汽车人变形，而后用深厚的嗓音说出‘我是擎天柱’时，唰的一下，我眼里全是泪水。”

Prologue

周慕容：我问你，从前有些人，心里有了秘密，而且不想被人知道，知道他们会怎么做？

阿炳：我怎么知道。

周：他们会跑到山上找一棵树，在树上挖一个洞，然后把秘密全说进去，再用泥把洞封上。那秘密会留在树里，没有人知道。
