Thoughts to ponder :
There is always a price to pay for your materialistic goals. You might end up a loser suffering from poor health, a lack of
time with your family and an inability to appreciate the surrounding beauty and enjoy your hobbies.
One day when you look back, you will realize that you don't really need that much. By then, you can no longer turn back
time to regain what you have missed.
Word of advice :
Stress has been named as the main "culprit" for most illnesses. If only our fellow men can re-define their sense of purpose
and priority, and stop chasing after materialistic things and unrealistic goals, living in Singapore won't be that stressful
in the end. Bear in mind that we come naked and will leave empty-handed. Of course, many will say that this is easier said
than done. However, if you are ready to change your mindset and let go, you will experience life from a new perspective and
start to lead meaningful lives like many long-serving volunteers in the various charities.
