conflict of interest

Homo sapiens is a very strange species. On one hand, he believes in sanctity of human right and personal space; yet, on the other hand, he also yearns for the acceptance of others.

When other people's belief clashes with ours, we are frustrated and angry. No major adverse impact occurs if these frustration and anger are kept in check. But, if these are not properly managed, they may lead to major disasters.

If this "conflict of interests" can be managed successfully, life will be a bliss.

Simple example - we are advised to take photos based on what you like, and not to please others. But yet, if others dislike the photos we have taken, we will be terribly disheartened! It is tough to balance our interest, and yet trying to please others.

心态

在没有人为或外来负面因素的影响，多数人都会永远保持着年轻的心态。

可是一旦结婚，成家立业，受到柴米油盐的干扰，就会开始感觉到心态的老化。

若家里没有小孩的“熏陶”，往往会忽视自己身体神态的老化，不知觉的以为自己还是个年轻小伙子。在看到孩子们渐渐成长后，才发觉自己已经不再年轻！

也就是为什么，单身者往往即使已是不惑 、 知命之年，还显得那么年轻，那么漂亮洒脱。

有了孩子之后，身材，思绪，神态，都会来个翻江倒海的转变！不认老都不行！

Wildlife / Plants @ Sungai Buloh Wetland Reserve

Sungai Buloh Wetland Reserve, a place with teeming mangrove trees and a variety of wildlife.

Apart from egrets, we saw some fish, crabs and mudskipper during our leisure walk in the park.

We also saw a crocodile "gliding" with flow of rising tide along the river cutting through the reserve, and some monitor lizards strolling among the mangrove trees along the river bank.

Also chance upon weaver ant building a nest a leave.

And colourful filaments of Putat Laut, apparently a common flower found in mangrove habitat.

Not to forget the brightly coloured apple snail eggs, attached firmly onto the wooden poles in the middle of a pond.

And lastly, the calm and scenic beauty of the wetland reserve.
