冷漠 有时候并不是无情
只是一种避免被伤害的工具

Cycas Revoluta (Sago Palm )
Beware, if you may have this plant at home "Cycas Revoluta (Sago Palm )" !
The plant is called a Sago Palm and its highly poisonous to both pets and humans.
A chemical in the plant called cycasin is toxic and often causes permanent liver damage as well as neurological damage if enough of the poison is absorbed by the body.
The seeds are the most poisonous part of the plant and the effects on humans are seizures, coma and death.
Of course you and I wouldn't just yank off a chunk of this plant and gnaw on it but the seeds are colorful so if you have kids and Sago palm in your yard educate them on the danger or get rid of the plant.
Fortunately our dog was one of the lucky ones. I later discovered that our dog vomited the plant in the yard soon after swallowing it, and after 2 days in the vet on IV, and having a ball of charcoal inserted in his stomach, a test revealed that his liver was recovering and he came home.
Sadly few people are aware of how dangerous this plant, many have lost their dogs, and even many veterinarians are unaware.
This plant doesn't carry a warning label and is becoming popular in Walmart, Lowes, and Home Depot so spread the word.

Difference between Focusing on Problems and Focusing on Results
CASE 1:
When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, they found out that the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity (ink won't flow down to the writing surface).
To solve this problem, it took them one decade and $12 million. They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down, underwater, in practically any surface including crystal and in a temperature range from below freezing to over 300 degrees C.
And what did the Russians do…?? They used a pencil.
CASE 2:
One of the most memorable case studies on Japanese management was the case of the empty soapbox, which happened in one of Japan's biggest cosmetics companies. The company received a complaint that a consumer had bought a soapbox that was empty.
Immediately the authorities isolated the problem to the assembly line, which transported all the packaged boxes of soap to the delivery department. For some reason, one soapbox went through the assembly line empty.
Management asked its engineers to solve the problem. Post-haste, the engineers worked hard to devise an X-ray machine with high-resolution monitors manned by two people to watch all the soapboxes that passed through the line to make sure they were not empty.
No doubt, they worked hard and they worked fast but they spent a whoopee amount to do so.
But when a rank-and-file employee in a small company was posed with the same problem, he did not get into complications of X-rays.
But instead came out with another solution. He bought a strong industrial electric fan and pointed it at the assembly line. He switched the fan on, and as each soapbox passed the fan, it simply blew the empty boxes out of the line.
Always look for simple solutions.
Devise the simplest possible solution that solves the problems.
Always focus on results & not on problems.

我是打工仔
空是色，
色就是空，
人生本是一身空，
环境所逼去做工，
超级工作低级人工，
奸狠老板逼赶工，
工作永远不曾松，
时间长过马拉松，
薪水少过做义工，
拜六出粮礼拜空，
惨过孟加拉劳工，
叫我如何再开工，
口袋没钱脑袋空，
只好学人练蛇工，
天天假装很多工，
蛇下蛇下又一工，
轻轻松松又放工...

不要错放了幸福温暖的手
往往许多人在抉择伴侣时，容易东想西想，不知所措，就是因为害怕一时做错决定，看错人，造成终生的遗憾。
诺贝尔文学奖得主萧伯纳说：“此时此刻在地球上，约有两万个人 适合当你的人生伴侣，就看你先遇到哪一个，如果在第二个理想伴侣出现之前，你已经跟前一个人发展出相知相惜、互相信赖的深层关系，那后者就会变成你的好朋友，但是若你跟前一个人没有培养出深层关系，感情就容易动摇、变心，直到你与这些理想伴侣候选人的其中一位拥有稳固的深情，才是幸福的开始，漂泊的结束。
爱上一个人不需要靠努力，只需要靠“际遇”，是上天的安排，但是“持续地爱一个人”就要靠“努力”，在爱情的经营中，顺畅运转的要素就是沟通、体谅、包容与自制(面临诱惑有所自制)。有许多人总是被 “际遇”所迷惑与苦恼，意念不停、欲念不断、争逐不散，而忘了培养经营感情的能力才是幸福的关键。
所以不要去追问到底谁才是我的Mr.Right， 而是问说在眼前的伴侣关系中，我能努力到什么程度、成长到什么程度，若没有培养出经营幸福的能力，就算真的Mr.Right出现在你身边，幸福依然会错过的，而活在犹疑与遗憾当中，这不就是许多“爱情虚无症”的遭遇与心态吗？
若你此刻已有一位长久相伴的伴侣，不要再随便三心二意地犹疑了，我们往往不易察觉感情中的一个陷阱， 就是“近亲生慢侮”，也就是经济学中的铁律“边际效益递减法则”，跟你在一起越久的人，就越容易麻木与忽视，而新鲜的“际遇”总是那么动人可爱。
在感情对待中，难免有摩擦与无心的伤害，而且论得罪自己最多的人，当然是跟我们在一起最久、最亲近的人。而新欢呢，又还没开始有得罪你的机会，再加上他的刻意讨好， 所以新欢怎么看怎么可爱，旧爱怎么看怎么讨厌。但别忘了，新欢身上总是有不确定的未知数， 旧爱身上就是有难得的熟悉感、确定感、信赖感。千万不要随便在偶然的“际遇”中迷失了自己，错放了幸福温暖的手。
所以萧伯纳的话，是要提醒情人不要太钻牛角尖于寻觅那唯一，应该把精神用在学会经营幸福的能力上， 同时也提醒我们“弱水三千只取一瓢饮”若有幸遇到了难得的伴侣，就不要再三心二意了， 因为我们永远不知道一生何时会遇到两万个其中的几个，所以要知福惜福、活在当下。

" 5H老公 "
曾经，5C老公流行一时。
所谓的5C，是女人要求结婚的对象必需拥有:
Car (车子), Condo (公寓),Credit Card (信用卡),Cash (现金)以及Career (事业)。
如今，年轻一辈追求的是5B老公。
5B既是BMW or Benz (宝马或马赛地汽车),
Bungalow (独立洋房), Billionaire (亿万富翁),Body (完美身体)以及Brain (聪明脑袋)。
5B是5C的升级版。
拥有车子太普通了！
小车破车也是车，不如要求双马:宝马和马赛地。
公寓也很委屈，独立洋房才是梦幻。
信用卡，现金和事业，一般男人都有:信用卡可能负债，现金可能不够应付金融海啸，
事业也可能刚刚起步或陷入危机，不如亿万身家实际。
至于完美身体以及聪明脑袋的追求，比较人性化，不象5C那样物质。
但是，5B老公，时间何处寻？
一般女人，还是现实点吧！
若自认没有5B素质，就不要学人家追求不可能的梦想。
建议选5H老公:
Honest (诚实), Handsome (英俊), Helpful (乐于助人), Humble (谦虚)以及Healthy (健康).
这5大人性特质，在现今社会，越来越难找，非常珍贵，
所谓健康就是福，比拥有亿万家财更幸福。
当然，5H老公，不包括:Hamsap (咸湿)
