Trust that everything happens to you is good for you.

The second thing to bring myself to happiness is make only positive affirmations.
Honestly, I never thought it works, but amazingly it really works.
I spent 3 months for just making positive affirmations when I was in depression , and my sis recommended me a book called HEAL your life by Louis L Hay. I read it and understnad the importance and the power of affirmations, yet I rather reluctant to follow it.

I had a hard time in my first semester but because I know I should trust that everything happens to me is good for me , even though my heart or subconcious didn't trust . I forced myself to do things I always believe I could not do. I joined a event organising committee,  I went to an oversea expediion programme, and I went back to home just to swim with my family during school time even though I had to take a flight .for that. I always didnt believe I could have done all these because I never trust I could when I had so many assignments from my course.

I never thought that all these will help me anyway . I did all these because I told myself , whatever decision you made is right for you . You never make wrong decision because you are a thoughtful person , you do things that the body tells you they like it .whatever happens after the decision is also good for you , maybe at that time you think it s bad , it will turn out to be good in future. Indeed, I suffered a lot when I joined the organising committee, but just because of the committee , I got to know more friends, got to get in to stay in hostel which my school is willing to provide me although I do not have enough CCA points .Even now , I have more experience about how to organise an event because I was a head which I always rejected this kinf os responsibility .  OEP helped me to bond stronger relationship with my friends, which I get contact with some Christian activities, and I kind of believe I am not the unluckiest one . I gain confidence after joining all these.

However , all of these require a lot of money . As I am still a student , and also because of my family finiacial problem , I realised that I have no much left . The confidence and the faith made me to believe that I could do something to reduce the burden , I am good enough to love myself, and finally I got a good part time job . The boss is 73 years old , and I really like what he has taught me ... as I just realised appreciation of what you have is the key of life, just like what he did . So whatever happens in your life , think that it is part of the game , part of the interesting drama you cast in . Be happy and be a good person .
At this point , I started to believe I really appreciated what I had been.... and I will continue ...

Trust life to hear and respond to your positive words. Say these affirmations every day and your whole world will change for the better

First thing to do in pursuing happiness

Take care of yourself.
Here I upload a video which I find it interesting.

Why? because somethings we did everyday which have been our habits , we sort of lacking the appreciation to what we have done, perhaps we never think of them at all, as we always thought we have more important things to do. To us, those things we have done , we thought they are " nothing".
This video instead shows that they actually create happy sound , music if we do notice about it. That could be  quite fun . We should have listened to everything we have done , and be grateful with what we have .
So, the first thing is take care of yourself. Only that you take care of yourself , you create lovely , enjoyable sound, and never find annoyed about what you have done everyday . You find joy in your life from every habit you have for a new day. Taking care of yourself not only make you enjoyed , it makes you feel batter physically and mentally .

My experience told me this, because our body will be used to a system , and better adapt to good habit . Thus, if you do right things to your body , your body will understand , and you get happier and happier. Skipping meal, not bathing , skipping all the basic needs for your body will only create a mindset " i don't like you, you dont deserve this, everything is not important" , you unitentionally send a wrong message to your body that you do not like it anymore. It is worsened.

So share with everyone here. Please remember to take care of yourself :)
Every day is a JOY!

Quote: if you take every girl as your own child , you can feel their sorrow and you will give your strength to protect them as you can ......stop human trafficking.
 They believe in me , I know and so I will try the best for them.

This inspired me to take everyone as someone you love and you care for , once you feel that , you give love and they will return you the same. It is not " help" but it is "love" , a kind of contribution that you will do for someone you love.
What is a hero to you ? A hero does not really need to have a strong muscular body to protect others. With love , any strength that you give is a show of love. Start to love people around you, and you will feel the same.

Problem:
Walking along the orchard street, Singapore, I have kind of emptiness in my heart . I saw alot of pretty girls and a lot yuppies. They are walking towards somewhere unknown. I am thinking, what is my purpose of life on this street? To be like them ? Like them buying LVs, like them wearing branded clothes , driving sports car along the roads.? There are so many couples dressings like stars , walking , shopping... Are they real? Are they happy? Is that what I want? I do not know.. that was what I hoped for before.. but now I want to do something different , it is not like that only , in the comfort zone , but purposely to be out of comfort zone , it does not mean that I should go to an orphange to help children. I have dilemma... what do I actually want , I want to give something different to this world , what could it be?

Do not feel lost again , it is always okay to start over again . And a great start today.

Quotes:
This is what I got from steve job's speech on 2005 commencement :
Don't let the noise of other opinions drown out your own inner voice. Most important,  follow your heart and your intuition they somehow already know what you truly want to become , everything else is just secondary .
