I send Mui Mui & Hero to pet shop for full grooming and then go to gym for workout while waiting for them.

Mui Mui & I

Hero & I

人之所以痛苦，在于追求错误的东西

I don't know......some say life is too short, others say

it is too long, but I know that nothing that

we do makes sense

if we don't touch the hearts of others.......

while it last

如果你不给自己烦恼，别人也永远不可能给你烦恼。因为你自己的内心，你放不下。

好好的管教你自己，不要管别人。你随时要认命，因为你是人。

这个世界本来就是痛苦的，没有例外的。

你什么时候放下，什么时候就没有烦恼。每一种创伤，都是一种成熟。

当你烦恼的时候，你就要告诉你自己，这一切都是假的，你烦恼什么？

根本不必回头去看咒骂你的人是谁，如果有一条疯狗咬你一口，难道你也要趴下去反咬他一口吗？

忌妒别人，不会给自己增加任何的好处。忌妒别人，也不可能减少别人的成就。

永远不要浪费你的一分一秒，去想任何你不喜欢的人。

得不到的东西，我们会一直以为他是美好的，那是因为你对他了解太少，没有时间与他相处在一起。当有一天，你深入了解后，你会发现原不是你想像中的那么美好。

这个世间只有圆滑，没有圆满的。

不要刻意去猜测他人的想法，如果你没有智慧与经验的正确判断，通常都会有错误的。你要感谢告诉你缺点的人。

时间总会过去的，让时间流走你的烦恼吧！

不要因为小小的争执，远离了你至亲的好友，也不要因为小小的怨恨，忘记了别人的大恩。

感谢上苍我所拥有的，感谢上苍我所没有的。

当你手中抓住一件东西不放时，你只能拥有这件东西，如果你肯放手，你就有机会选择别的。人的心若死执自己的观念，不肯放下，那么他的智慧也只能达到某种程度而已。

如果你能够平平安安的渡过一天，那就是一种福气了。多少人在今天已经见不到明天的太阳，多少人在今天已经成了残废，多少人在今天已经失去了自由，多少人在今天已经家破人亡。

恶口永远不要出自于我们的口中，不管他有多坏，有多恶。你愈骂他，你的心就被污染了，你要想，他就是你的善知识。

你不要常常觉得自己很委曲，你应该要想，他对我这样已经很好了，这就是修行的功夫。

世界原本就不是属于你，因此你用不着抛弃，要抛弃的是一切的执著。万物皆为我所用，但非我所属。

学会用理解的，欣赏的眼光去看对方，而不是以自以为是的关心去管对方。

成熟的人不问过去；聪明的人不问现在；豁达的人不问未来。

发光并非太阳的专利，你也可以发光。你可以用爱得到全世界，你也可以用恨失去全世界。

爱的力量大到可以使人忘记一切，却又小到连一粒嫉妒的沙石也不能容纳。

人总是珍惜未得到的，而遗忘了所拥有的。

如你想要拥有完美无暇的友谊，可能一辈子找不到朋友。

WHATEVER HAPPENS, IT HAPPENS FOR A REASON 事出必有因

1. I love you not because of who you are, just because of who I am when I be with you.
> 我爱你并不是因为你是谁，而是我在你的面前可以成为那一位重要的人。

2. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.
> 世上沒有任何一个人是值得你为他/她流泪，而最真心的那一位，绝对不会让你为他/她哭泣。

3. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.
> 如果那一个人不是你所想般地爱着你，并不代表他不是全心全意地爱你。

4. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.
> 一个真正的朋友是会向你伸出援手，触动你心灵的人。

5. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.
> 掛念一個人最差的方式，就是当你坐在他身旁时，心中却知道你不能拥有他。

6. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
> 就算你不快乐也不要皱着眉头，因为你永远不知道谁会爱上你的笑容。

7. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.
> 在这世界上，你可能只是某某人，但對某人来说你可能是他的全世界。

8. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't willing to waste their time on you.
> 不要浪费时间在一個不肯花时间在你身上的人。

9. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so 他hat when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.
> 可能上天要我们在遇到那位适合的人之前先碰上一些不好的人，这才会让我们更加懂得珍惜那位适合自己的人。

10. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.
> 不要为了结束而哭泣，应该为曾经发生过而感到快乐。

11. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.
> 不要太费尽力气去寻找你想要的东西，最好的东西往往是在你预料不到的時候出现。

12. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.
> 在你尝试了解其他人和盼望他们也会明瞭你之前，先将自己变成一个更好和了解你自己的人。

──摘录自《普门学报》第三十三期

When we say that we are working hard...

Millions of children work to help their families in ways that are neither harmful nor exploitative. But millions more are put to work in ways that drain childhood of all joy - and crush the right to normal physical and mental development. It is considered inappropriate or exploitative if a child below a certain age works. Their futures already threatened by inadequate diet and health care, who are at greatest risk from exploitation at work.

When life is hard,
Payday is still so far away,

Theory of Life

1. The meaning of life lies in serving; the value of life in giving.
2. The value of life is not depend on how long we live but on how much we contribute.
3. As the past has faded into misty memories and the future remains a dream unrealized, seizing the present is most important.
4. There is no need to be concerned about the past or future. Live fully in the present and you are connected with both the past and future.
5. A positive life pivots on modesty; the bigger the ego, the greater the insecurity.
6. Live up to your role and status, and fulfill your required duties.
7. In peace and harmony, seize the promise of today and live out a fresh tomorrow.
8. While worry fuels unnecessary torment, carefulness breeds security.
9. Wealth is like running water. Giving is like digging a well. Just as the deeper the well, the more water it holds. The more you give, the more wealth you have.
10. In life, we must make the best preparations, and be ready for the worst.
11. As long as we still have breath, we have boundless hope, and the breath we have is the greatest wealth.
12. To transcend the sufferings of birth, old age, and sickness, keep to the three principles: live happily, face illness with a healthy mind, and embrace old age with hope.
13. To transcend the suffering of death, keep to the three principles: never seek death, never fear death, and never wait for death to come.
14. Bodily ailments do not necessarily constitute suffering. An unsettled mind does.
15. What we have now is the best. Whoever can't be satisfied is a poor man, no matter how much he owns.
16. Vision is derived from wisdom; luck, from blessings.
17. By just picking up litter and refraining from littering, we are doing meritorious deeds.
18. To purify the mind, start by reducing desires and knowing contentment; to purify society, start by extending loving care to others.
19. Be a bottomless trash can that can never be choked by others' mental junk; be a dustless mirror that reflects the world as it is with no distortion.
    

Practice them! (Work)

Enjoying work:

1. Be busy without being disorganized and weary without being dispirited.
2. Be busy but happy, and tired but joyful.
3. It is fine to be busy, just don't let it get on your nerves.
4. Work swiftly but don't tense up. Relax your body and mind and never tighten up.
5. Work swiftly in an orderly fashion, never compete with time in a nervous flurry.
6. To take on tough tasks, one must prepare to tough out complaints and to be in charge is to be in for criticism. Yet complaints help foser compassion and patience, and criticism often holds golden advice.
7. Stay at ease under all circumstances and give whenever conditions allow.
8. All the ups and downs of life are nourishing experiences for our growth.
9. Rectify deviations with wisdom, accommodate others with compassion.
10. To be accommodating to others is to be accommodating to ourselves.
11. Pressure usually stems from caring too much about externals and other people's opinion.
12. Offer your service with a heart of gratitude, as if repaying a kindness, then you won't feel weary of tired.
    

Inspirational thoughts

Start your day with a good thought.

If you want something you never had, do something you have never done.

Don't go the way life takes you. Take life the way you want to go.

You are born to live and not living because you are born.

Laugh at your mistakes and praise yourself for learning from them.

Make every day count. Appreciate every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again.

Philosophy in life

• Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.


• Always give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.


• When you say, 'I love you,' mean it.


• When you say, 'I'm sorry,' look the person in the eye.


• Never laugh at anyone's dreams. People who don't have dreams don't have much.


• Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt but it's the only way to live life completely.


• Don't judge people by their relatives.


• Talk slowly but think quickly.


• When someone asks you a question and you don't want to answer, smile and ask, 'Why do you want to know?'
