Law of attraction

"The phrase Law of Attraction, used widely by New Thought writers, refers to the idea that thoughts influence chance. The Law of Attraction argues that thoughts (both conscious and unconscious) can affect things outside the head, not just through motivation, but by other means. The Law of Attraction says that which is like unto itself is drawn. Essentially, "if you really want something and truly believe it's possible, you'll get it", but putting a lot of attention and thought onto something you don't want means you'll probably get that too." [source : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_Attraction]

While chatting with a friend about her attraction towards a person, I was left to ponder about the power of attraction. I was curious to know what the 'Law of attraction' is about and above is what I googled.

Attraction is a beautiful gift to mankind and its not to be corrupted or defiled. It satisfies the core of one's being; to love and be loved. Yet at times, I can't help but wonder how far can the attraction bring us. Especially when its an attraction that is not to be. But, it is still not within one's control. Emotions are powerful and they can get us all muddle-headed if we're not careful.

In the aforementioned extract on the law, I come to realise it is all in the thoughts. An attraction can strike our heart but its the many thoughts that follow which comes like huge surging waves. Unstoppable. Sometimes I find myself wanting to stop those thoughts (of attraction) but the more I try to do it, the harder it is to forget and increasing the probability of having my thoughts become a reality in the process.

So with attractions, to think or not to think? Well I suppose its fine to think so long it does not become a fatal attraction!

Wo(Man) of the hour

As I read the tribute to the late Dr Goh Keng Swee, I can't help but feel this profoundly deep admiration for this immensely brilliant forefather of Singapore. I was in awe of his contributions and how his influence is so pervasive in modern Singapore, yet so few actually heard and know of his legacy. The more I read on about what people remembered of him and his long list of accolades, the more proud I am to be a Singaporean. I never knew places of interests like our zoo, bird park and even Sentosa were his ideas! These are just a tiny fraction of his contributions. My gosh....it was just an incredible discovery and I was hooked to the Saturday's Special edition on 'Remember Dr Goh Keng Swee'. Strangely, my heart was pounding as I read and later reflected on this titan's life. Instinctively, a question came to mind i.e. will there be another titan like Dr Goh, Mr Lee KY, Mr Wee Kim Wee or the other members of the Old Guard in my generation? Will I get to see one em...

Day 3 & 4 - Halong Bay

HALONG BAY Cat Ba Island (2 days, 1 night) After 1 day of exploration of Hanoi city, we headed for Halong Bay via the junkboat. Our destination was on Cat Ba Island where we stayed for the night. It was also there that we ventured onto 'Monkey' Island - not to be deceived; there was only 4 monkeys sighted. The exhilirating part of this journey was the motorbike ride to the ferry terminal to board the boat to 'Monkey' Island. Felt like I was part of a short scene of a James Bond movie (pillion with Pierce Brosnan!). Will never forget the cold draft blowing against my face and just riding up and down the slopes! Cat Ba Island is a very quiet & tranquail place. Little activity especially at night. Wanted to catch the morning activities at the fishing wharf opposite our hotel but could not wake up in time. Nonetheless, managed to capture some snippets of what goes on at the bay. Waiting patiently to board the boat. Snapped this on board the boat. Not a vietnamese but fe...
