Different people have different methods to protect themselves. Some people makes use of sacarstism as a protection tool, some uses aggressiveness, some arrogance etc etc. To protect is good, but too much will close the doors of ur heart.

For me.. what's my protection method.. Do I have? I think I'm just what u see..

Sometimes fate lets us meet the right people at the right time, the right people at the wrong time, the wrong people at the right time, the wrong people at the wrong time. Why can't we control it? If we can, everyone will want to meet the right person at the right time. Then what is there to learn?

Somehow I believe that everything is planned properly. At which time we will meet this or that person, and what we learn from the whole event. Things goes wrong, so that we can learn. If things goes right, we'll be stagnant.

Only when drastic things happen will we change. I am what I am, because of things that cause me to be what I am. We must always improve.

Sometimes I tend to relate lessons learnt from those who had crossed my path. From my long time friends: Kaw Sen, Johnny, Jillian, Maddie, Daniel etc etc, to my new found friends: Kuan Sheng, Khai Yin, Joanna, Yun Yun etc etc. Everyone taught me something. Everyone had some influence to my life.

Saw a phrase in the book "The five people u meet in heaven": Every person come into our lives to teach us something. I totally believe in this..

During our normal interaction with other people, we actually learn from them, and they learn from us. Just that it is subconscious and that we did not notice it. We left a bit of ourselves in every person we met, we interact with. Sometimes the lesson learnt is hidden beneath the surface and when the time is right, somehow it'll resurface again.. People come into our lives for a reason.

Been reading a lot about past life regression these days. In metaphysics sense, it is said that everyone reincarnate and had many lifes before this. And in different life, we learn different things. I had bought 4 books by Dr Brian Weiss and had finished 3 books. All in less than 2 weeks.

I believe that in life, everything is a cycle and about timing. This author was introduced to me by Xinyan abt a year ago. However, at that time, I had not much interest in it. She went for past life regression and saw me as her soulmate in one of her lives. But ever since she's not around me, this thought and interest in past life regression did not stir anything in me.

It's been about 8 months and I suddenly get very affected. Suddenly one night while waiting for Khai Yin and Kuan Sheng outside mac did all the thoughts came back to me. I began to hum the song that I sang to her last time. And I get very affected by the whole thing. 8 months of peacefulness and suddenly, out of nowhere, it came back to haunt me.

I began to read up on past life regression. Is our lives carefully planned for us? I remembered that first time I saw her. It was like.. a feeling that I knew her... Perhaps a possible reason is that her past life regression is true- We had known each other long time ago. For her, she had no idea when she fell for me too. Everything was like so fast and within a few weeks, we're like over the phone a few times a day, even when I was in Australia. I spent about $90 worth of phone cards alone in Australia. Things were like so smooth, as if everything is planned...

And then things start to go downhill. The first thing that led to the break down of the relationship, I feel, is when the crystal angel that I bought for her was broken into many pieces when it fell from her phone. I bought it in Australia and had one myself, and one for her. Both of us being lovers of crystals, I feel that it's a ominous sign when a crystal breaks. I searched online for another one and sent it to her house. This one, however, came broken. A series of events happen and eventually it leads to the destruction of a relationship. Everything was like so well planned. The meeting, the progress, the degradation and finally the destruction.

Ever since that day, I changed a lot. I'm not the old self anymore. Perhaps I've matured, or forced to mature, and become more open minded to things around me.

And these days, after the remininscence of the event, somehow it stirs the interest of past life regression in me.

There are some people whom I feel a closeness to, even though I just got to know them less than a month. Someone whom I open up to, and they open up to me, and a kind of rapport that takes quite some time, months or even years, to build in normal circumstences. Is our rapport between us built long time ago?

Sometimes I was thinking... Maybe Xinyan entered my life to teach me something...

Once upon a time, there lived a King who, despite his luxurious lifestyle, was neither happy nor content.

One day, the King came upon a servant who was singing happily while he worked. This fascinated the King; why was he, the Supreme Ruler of the Land, unhappy and gloomy, while a lowly servant had so much joy in his heart?

The King asked the servant, "Why are you so happy?"

The man replied, "Your Majesty, I am nothing but a servant, but my family and I don't need too much - just a roof over our heads and warm food to fill our tummies."

Later in the day, the King sought the advice of his most trusted advisor. After hearing the King's woes and the servant's story, the advisor said, "Your Majesty, I believe that the servant has not been made part of The 99 Club."

"The 99 Club? And what exactly is that?" the King inquired.

The advisor replied, "Your Majesty, to truly know what The 99 Club is, place 99 Gold coins in a bag and leave it at this servant's doorstep."

When the servant saw the bag, he took it into his house. When he opened the bag, he let out a great shout of joy... so many gold coins!

He began to count them. After several counts, he was at last convinced that there were 99 coins. He wondered, "What could've happened to that last gold coin? Surely, no one would leave 99 coins!" He looked everywhere he could, but that final coin was elusive. Finally, exhausted, he decided that he was going to have to work harder than ever to earn that gold coin and complete his collection.

From that day, the servant's life was changed. He was overworked, horribly grumpy, and castigated his family for not helping him make that 100th gold coin. He stopped singing while he worked.

Witnessing this drastic transformation, the King was puzzled. When he sought his advisor's help, the advisor said, "Your Majesty, the servant has now officially joined The 99 Club."

He continued, "The 99 Club is a name given to those people who have enough to be happy but are never contented, because they're always yearning and striving for that extra 1 to round it out to 100!

We can be happy, even with very little in our lives, but the minute we're given something bigger and better, we want even more! We lose our sleep, our happiness, we hurt the people around us; all these as a price for our growing needs and desires. That's what joining The 99 Club is all about."
