I appreciate human effort.

I am weak I am strong.
I am a wanderer. I like to ride the wind and see where it will take me.

I am afraid of heights but i like to jump off cliffs.

I do not know how to swim but i like to chase waterfalls and waves.

I hate cuts and bruises but i like to climb wall after wall of rock.

I only have two books: NATURE and HUMAN BEINGS.

“In life be the chess player not the chess piece”.

Very very true!
Well, I am one who love chess game!
Indeed, in chess games, many time we got to sacrifices certain pieces to win the game. In life, our destiny is literally in our hand. What we sacrifices are very important - health, family, friend, etc. We got to really think about it and know what matters most!

I love quotes and wise sayings because of this:
“Your thoughts control your life. But you control your thoughts. You are free to think success thoughts - positive thoughts or failure - negative thoughts.”

With good thoughts, we can have a better life.
Best wishes

. . .I listen. I remember. I speak. . .

I love and I let myself be loved.

I have endured pain and suffering because I chose to be. . .

I will embrace life even if it means embracing an ocean of uncertainty. . .

I will live in passion and see each day as if no other day has been created beautifully.

Ã¨ questa approvazione?

I like your blog especially your thoughts on life have a bright day ahead
ross , on May 21st, 2007 at 5:24 am said:

Sam Chan,

thank you for leaving me your piece of thoughts. I am a chess player too and I understand what you mean…maybe I should repost here my reflection about chess.

“With good thoughts, we can have a better life.” by Sam Chan

- i can only add…don’t let it just be good thoughts…let your thoughts pass through your hands…let them be good actions too

Enjoy Life Sam,
ross

Hello Tatlumpung libong isda,

“Ã¨ questa approvazione?” sabi mo…

wow! can you speak italian?

well my reply will be un grande SI’ !!!

Thank you for your thoughts on life and love and for liking my blog.

ps
buti bilang mo pa yan isda
Sam Chan , on May 21st, 2007 at 11:53 am said:

Hi Ross,
Thanks for the addition to my previous comment. You are right! Without actions whatever thoughts avails nothing. Just like in a chess game, after spending much time thinking weighing all the possible consequences (good/bad), finally one still need to move the next chess piece! Otherwise, the game cannot continue. Thus, similarly after whatever decision made, we do something about it and then life goes on.

Well, I really like your post using the chess to illustrate your point. FYI, this is the very first time that I add further comments after my comment.

“Thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one’s thought into action is the most difficult thing in the world.”
- Goethe(1749-1832)

Best wishes
ross , on May 22nd, 2007 at 5:11 am said:

Hello Sam,

It’s my pleasure to hear from you again and I appreciate your reply and quote from Goethe.

There is this one quote by Alfred North Whitehead , which seems to go the other way around…

“We cannot think first and act afterward. From the moment of birth we are immersed in action, and can only fitfully guide it by taking thought.”

Best wishes to you too!

iva , on June 8th, 2007 at 2:22 pm said:

haay, sarap magbasa talaga dito… parang daily motivation. gets me thinking about my life din…

and know what else i love, that you got a piece about Bridges of Madison County here. extreme sacrifice. awww.
ross , on June 8th, 2007 at 2:58 pm said:

Hi Iva,

welcome to my site.

It is the Good Spirit who is doing a good job of giving you that shot of motivation and introspection.

Oh you like Bridges of Madison County? Yes, I agree “extreme sacrifice”!
iva , on June 9th, 2007 at 9:03 am said:

Like the way you think
ross , on June 10th, 2007 at 8:38 pm said:

Thank you Annelisa. I like your photograhs…very captivating!
Shams , on June 12th, 2007 at 4:22 pm said:

Thanks for your suggestions. I agree with you. As I am now pressed with my PhD and in fact I am the only one working on the site development, so it’s quite hard for me to do all the things I want to do. My girlfriend is helping me a lot, but she too very busy with her PhD and she is in Germany (I am in Austria). I have a vision and I am sure I will go a long way with huge success and will make what I imagine about life.

I asked some friends to help me but they are very passive. It made me very sad at the beginning. But I know myself, nothing can stop or stand before me. I do what I want to do.

If you write inspirational articles (as your site is very inspirational, but not blogs as they are very short), will you be kind to let me publish it on my site as well. I will be very happy.

Love and kisses.

Yours Shams.
ross , on June 12th, 2007 at 8:11 pm said:

Shams,

follow your dreams, courage!

I’ve been writing inspirational articles inside my heart but I don’t know how many words do you need to publish them on your site.

Just let me know.

welcome to my site…

btw,

I’m wondering , what kind of suggestions did I give you?
Graham , on June 14th, 2007 at 8:54 pm said:

Wow, what a great blog….Inspiration is what we all need some times, and coming to your blog has definitely put a smile on my face…thank you ross!

Before I go, here are a couple of my favourite quotes;

“We are all in the gutter,
but some of us are looking at the stars.”
- Oscar Wilde

No dreamer is ever too small; no dream is ever too big.
- Anonymous

I look forward to coming back to read more……
ross , on June 15th, 2007 at 7:12 am said:

Graham,
