King of the Birds, Lord of the Skies
Gather ye rose buds while ye may, old time is still a flying;
and this same rose that you see today, tomorrow will be dying.

Focus On Your Goals! - R(A)

Focus on your goals ... Just don't get caught focusing.
(This is hilarious!!!)

The Price of Integrity

"No man can purchase his virtue too dear, for it is the only thing whose value must ever increase with the price it has cost us. Our integrity is never worth so much as when we have parted with our all to keep it."

-Charles Caleb Cotton


Few things have as much effect on our lives, our interactions with others, our own effect on the world, as our integrity. This virtue pervades our every action, colors us in others' eyes & is fundamental to our perspective of the world & the self. Integrity could be defined as the necessity of our ideas & actions to the greater good, but this would do the virtue little justice.

Our integrity is a culmination of our past deeds & future aspirations, defining our current character. It is a trait that cannot be 'put on' nor 'taken away'. Adopting the importance of your integrity will change every aspect of our lives, but only when we recognize the method by which we create its value. We must be willing to sacrifice everything to maintain our integrity, every personal gain, material good or individual motive for the sake & cause of our necessary role in the bigger picture.

A heart cannot fail for the sake of all other organs in the body, regardless of its own weaknesses. Those weaknesses become the weaknesses of the body. We must serve our higher ideals with a non-negotiable commitment to maintain our integrity through every loss and hardship, holding our heads high & our dreams higher.

Walk the Talk

Children pay little attention to their parents' teachings, but reproduce their characters faithfully.

Indeed, more is caught than is taught.
May my little one catches daddy's plus points.

那一片
阴沉如海的天
和你擦身而过
有些晃神你再回头
才发现
我的行路在延
我却无法解释是谁
乱了我生活

该怎么做
才能把回忆都删除
错过了幸福
我像跌入迷雾

遇见你有种
似曾相识的感觉 wor
仿佛有种同样感受
在你的眼底 wor..

能必能让我们再相遇
能必能让我再次认识你
似曾相识犹如游戏 yee ..wu

Measure of the Hours

Once at a potent leader's voice I stayed;
Once I went back when a good monarch prayed;
Mortals, howe'er we grieve, howe'er deplore,
The flying shadow will return no more.

- Maurice Maeterlinck,
From: Measure of the Hours
