This post is taken from Lim Qi Hong (my cousin)... It seems we share the same teaching as my dad and his dad (my uncle) are very close just like me and Qihong. Here are some teachings that they have imparted to us...although i admit i don't follow everything, for my own benefit, i try to follow as many as i can. Here goes it:
Dad taught me always remember to be contented with what we have...and it made me desire less of owning materialistic stuffs...
Dad taught me always remember to respect others...and it made me became a love-able person
Dad taught me to keep my promises...and it made me became a trust-able person
Dad taught me to help others depending on my capability..and it made me realise how lucky i am...
Dad taught me not to waste food..and it made me realised how lucky i am to have sufficient food for living..
Dad taught me to be patient all the time..and it made me handle everything one at a time and tolerate any being in this world
Dad taught me to work hard..God will bless my results
Dad taught me to enjoy life..as there is only one chance to live as a human being.
Dad taught me to trust myself..and it made me a more confident person
Dad taught me of letting go every bad qualities...and i am trying to be as good as possible..
Dad taught me to forgive people.... as people will forgive your misdeeds.
Dad taught me not to be petty.... as what is yours will always be yours.
Dad taught me not to be possessive... as nothing belongs to you permanently.
Dad taught me to surrender.... as many things are not within our control.
I added slightly more stuff to QH's list of Dad's lesson. I hope it would help everyone of you in one way of the other. Although i admit i make mistakes at times, i want everyone to forgive and know that i am still learning. Let us start making the world a better place, and make ourselves a better person.
