With a strong spirit of optimism, we need to be able to continually direct our minds in a bright. positive and beneficial direction, and help those around us do so, too. We should strive to develop a state of life where we can feel a sense of joy, no matter what happens."

HA, trial performance went all fine...But... made a few mistakes here and there but as a group
I think i am really thrilled by the passion and enthusiasm they put in.
Was impressed by Wan Xian capabilities to master intro dance less than an hour.
Touched by A2 desire to make sure Sin Ee and Scarf dance all go well.
Amazed by Wan Er performance skills - her style and smile.
Glad that Khee Chong finally realise he needs a change in his dancing attitude.
Just hoping that Zhi Yong, Wei Ze, Karen and Cheryl will finally get the dance steps that i wanted.
NMHRGK - that's all i needed man!
Like this pic... haha.. look at our sweats.. no wonder we need a dri-fit attire for our performance! LOL... But scarfer, let's do it, dun just leave the job to me and A2.... yoz..

Annoyed, mad, livid, irritated and angry - whatever it is, I am just not happy. It has been really sometime since I was so angry after picking up faith so strongly and so determined to do my human revolution. But hey, I am not turning back nor am I deciding to give up the chance to change and give in to hardship. Don’t get it wrong.I’m superbly angry and only will so if
1)Insult was made to ND Buddhism, my family, my members, comrades and my girl
2)Injured was made to precious people I mention in point one.
3)People take advantage of Gakkai members/venue/philosophy
So yup, point one is fulfilled. Check out this blog with the word B**** insulting my girl and taggies on my dear’s blog with all unwanted messages as well. This really got me mad. And, this bring me to the next thing I am going bring it across – Karma
Karma (extract):
“Karma is a variation of the Sanskrit karman, which means act, action, a former act leading to a future result, or result. Buddhism interprets karma in two ways: as indicating three categories of action, i.e., mental, verbal, and physical, and as indicating a dormant force thereby produced. That is, one's thought, speeches, and behavior, both good and bad, imprint themselves as a latent force or potential in one's life. This karma when activated by an external stimulus produces a corresponding good or bad effect, i.e., happiness or suffering. There are also neutral acts that produce neither good nor bad results. According to this concept of karma, one's actions in the past have shaped one's present reality, and one's actions in the present will in turn influence one's future…..”
I was, myself indeed, insult by someone (sherry who tag darling’s blog) for not knowing what exactly karma is. To me, maybe is not an insult maybe I should be thinking it as a wake up call to instruct me to brush up on my fundamental teaching. And well, the latest Buddhism study meeting did touch on karma and about devilish function. Everyone has karma, definitely – be it good or bad but Darling’s was really bad. So bad that it stretches from the year she was in secondary to nitec to higher-nitec. As for those who have hurted her so badly will accumulate more karma as well. As what the teachings have taught – even if the karma doesn’t show it now it will still show it in the next life or even the next seconds. So is good to let this karma show themselves if not it will accumulate more in our heart, and by chanting NMHRGK, you will definitely expiate the negative karma, but one have to put in 100% faith and 100% determination!!!
Her karma lies on friendship, but don’t complain Eleena, have 100% belief in gohonzon, let them out and I can assure you your true friend lies in Gakkai itself – exactly where we were first met and come thus far! Have the conviction that we can become happy and attain Buddhahood.
Here’s guidance for you and for everyone reading my blog,
“Not letting your mistakes or troubles defeat you, but picking yourself up & triumphing over them, using everything as a springboard for growth, for fresh success or greater achievement – that attitude itself is truly commendable “ - Ikeda Sensei
I hope Zhong Kai reads this too, cos I would love to rally comrades to chant for her happiness along and hold a mini daimokukai to encourage her (宿命转换). I hope Zhong Kai will rally the ywd(s) or even the ymd(s) like himself to come together. I will chant for her no doubt and for her I will set side an hour dmk just for her. Just wanna let her know, comrades for will not leave one to suffer alone, and remember – comrades for eternity. ITESD will be a platform for you!

Nagging ParentsSome teens just couldn't stand them for 10mins!
How often have I heard that! While, of course, there are those who have good, open family communication, many young people get angry at their parents for telling them what to do. Often they end up not speaking to them at all.
I, too, fought with my mother from time to time about how I chose to live my life. I'd say: "Leave me alone! Let me do things my way!"
Mothers and Fathers always seem to be giving their kids a hard time. From prehistoric times, mother have been saying things like: " Do your homework!" "Turn of the television!" "Wake up or you'll be late!: It's not something we can change. But you'll understand how your parents feel when you become a parent yourself.
So it is important for you to be big-hearted. If a parent yells at you, you can think: " A loud voice means she is healthy; that's great," or, "Oh, he is expressing his love for me. I appreciate it." Your ability to view parents in this way is a sign of your increasing maturity.
Throughout the animal world, parents teach their young how to survive - how to hunt, how to eat, etc. Accordingly, our parents teach us so many things, launching us in the right direction. This is something we learn to appreciate as we become adults ourselves.
There is a well-known story about a forlorn young man sitting dejectedly by the road after quarreling with his father. He believed his father was narrow-minded, unfair and a fool. An older acquaintance came along and, guessing the cause of his sadness, said: "When I was around eighteen, my father told me nothing but dull, stupid things that infuriated me. I got really sick of hearing them. But ten years later, I started feeling that everything my father was saying made a lot of sense. I wondered, ' When did my father develop so much wisdom?"
I think it's important that you use your own wisdom to avoid fighting with your parents. Furthermore, when your parents quarrel between themselves, as many do from time to time, the wisest thing is for you to stay out of it.
(The Way of Youth - Daisaku Ikeda)
Adding to it, I feel we are blessed with parents nagging at us. This show how much they really care as compared to kids who nagged at their parents - how spoiled can the child be then? In some way, some kids hope so much someone can really nagged at them but unfortunately they are not around anymore.
So appreciate the care and concern shower by our parents, and with that I would like to wish every parents a belated mothers' and fathers' day!!!

Extracts from The Wisdom Of The Lotus Sutra Vol 1," The parable tells of a father who is an excellent physician. While he is away, his children drink poison, and he returns home to find them writhing on the ground in agony. The physician prepares medicine for his children, but they refuse to take it, for the poison has caused them to lose their minds.
The father then devises a plan to save his children. Leaving behind the medicine, he sets off a journey. Reaching his destination, he sends a messenger to tell his children that he has died. They are so overcome with grief that they regain their senses, drink the medicine and are immediately cured.
The excellent physician is the Buddha, and the journey on which he departs represents the Buddha's passing. Nichiren Daishonin further says that the children indicate the people living in the Latter Day of the Law, the good medicine is Nam-myo-ho-renge-kyo, and the messenger refers to the Bodhisattvas of the Earth. In other words, Nam-myo-ho-renge-kyo, the excellent medicine that saves all people after the Buddha's passing, has been expounded in the "Life Span" chapter "
Was pretty upset this phrase " this is what friends are for" is actually not really true in some cases, worst cases is when you wrongly see someone you can trust and you believe is a good friend. However, being the disciples of ND Buddhism, I shall not be defeated by criticisms. Hence, those who suffer like I do, or receive any form of unwanted remarks, this is for you -
" Turn criticisms into prayers. Transcend all worldly affairs and accumulate good fortune through kosen-rufu movements. Be tolerant and avoid emotional response. Chanting daimoku stimulates one's growth and development. Just talk on strategy and no action leads one to the wrong direction. Determined prayers give rise to wisdom. Be positive. Prayers make everything possible. "
Gilbert's HV a success!!!
Yeah! I will continue to strive excellence for NypSD!!

After the successful SD Nationwide Meeting, my life have been boring for 2 dyas. But my Daimoku is stronger, is filled with more determination and placed more sincere in it. For the fact I cant wait for new challenges and I want to succeed again. Maybe not now, but this coming Wednesday is a must attend home visit to Gilbert. I have rally my CICs to work together and bring this fellow back to NypSD just like Pengyu did. I think I have wasted enough time already, I need to really spend more time on gakkai or meaningful things in life. Therefore, I hope I am able to get the job I wanted and at the same time contribute back to NypSd, back to gakkai!Been reading "The Wisdom Of The Lotus Sutra Volume 1" since last Friday, and here are some of the learning points. I really hope to complete the whole series before the year ends. I can do it yoz!!! NMHRGK!!!!!
- Nichiren Daishonin says myo [of myoho, the Mystic Law] has three meaning: " to open," " to be endowed and perfect" and "to revive." These are the attributes of life and the attributes of a Buddha as well.
- Toda Sensei said to Ikeda Sensei : "You have to encounter problems in life. Only when we encounter problems can we understand faith and achieve greatness."
And well, before i ends today entry, here's a guidance to end the night!
" Hardships make us strong. Problems give birth to wisdom. Sorrows cultivate compassion for others. Those who have suffered the most can become the happiest. "

I think i shall flood my own blog with guidances!!!First up,
" The struggle between happiness and unhappiness is the story of human existence. The struggle between peace and war is the history of the human race. The power that leads us to eternal victory amid these struggles is the power of good within us. " - Daisaku Ikeda
Today dance prac - another meaningful guidance
" If we unit in one mind, we will definitely achieve our goals. A new path that we never even dreamed of will open up before us withour fail. That is the strength of those who believe in the Daishonin's Buddhism. Please never forget that. " - Toda Sensei
Anyway, read Yee Hong's Blog, realise he not doing really well even though he looks okay. I think NYP-SD should really stand up together and help one another. Dun forget, we are one big family. So Yee Hong, you're not alone!!!!

After 5 nights at uncle's place, i feel so much recharged and refreshing. In a way I know how to handle my emotions, in a way I learn about self-discipline and also I learn about independent. It may sound funny, but it's true. Lastly, HLC HLC HLC!!! Chanting with uncle and James feels really great and now I gotta do it on my own again, shall not let the momentum fall! GBT! Also, gotta thanks all for talking to me when i really need a listening ear - Ama, Ivan, Daniel, Law, Marcia and of cos ELEPHANT!First Dance Prac update:
7 people
45mins
4 eights of dance steps
(next 4D sure winner: 7454)
Having lead in so many occasion, I'm much prepared and ready now. It really nice to see everyone enjoy themselves though that's still blur-looking faces. But I finally feel the joy of helping, the joy of dancing and the joy of working with people i never worked before. Thanks Yi Jie and Alvin(First time working tgt) and of cos my old pal Pei Hui for the help today.
Learned that humble is always the key of winning others' heart, thinking the fact i have always been "hao-lian" esp in Soccer, Acct'in, Dancing and Finance - being humble is actually very enjoyable. We should always listen and lower ourselves to put our members above us - and that is HUMBLE!
YingXin: You better watch out!! give me false hope!!! :X shall kick you punch you and throw u inside the rubbish bag. *tsk* LMAO....
Next training: 10am, 8 June @ Ivy's house(Marsilling).
