A day into MOC work at home

Life during MOC has to be very intentaional. Every small deatils have to be planned, if possible, carefully planned, beautifully executed to ensure minimise conflict and reduce mis-communication. I think the first ten days of our family MCO, I was working FULL-TIME, day and night on the COVID-19 Web Resources data gathering, online forms, persuading agencies to use, checking the data, deciding how to analyse, that was whole day job! There was little rest. Day time, I was required to go over to do some works, mostly digitally related, creating social media. I am glad those days are over and I could catch up on sleep after that 2 weeks.

Just a glimpse into one of my working day during Malaysia MCO 18 March to 14 April 2020.

Today is 2 April, a day after April Fool and I really hope all these CORONA Virus was just a joke but it it sadly no. It feels like this is World War 3 happening worldwide, the weapon is biological As to what happened on 1 April, our juvenille dog Nif has given birth to 6 puppies under the pandan coconut tree during the early hours. On 1 April, the whole day while working at home, in front of the laptop, attending a Zoom Meeting, Nif was like a mad dog, fiercely guarding her puppies, fighting any other dog going near her nest.

Anyway, that was yesterday story. I started doing 30 to 60 minutes exercise using a YouTube Walk and that got me physically work out a bit and tired and that forced me to sleep earlier. So by 5am, I usually will wake up (if I sleep around 11pm).

I woke up and decided to reply Whatsapp messages and having discussions with various people. If I do not break this, I could do this the whole day. So I need to set in my mind what to do other than writing Whatsapp Messages.

美!实在是太美了!点一下图片,竟然发生了这么奇妙的事情!

点一下图片

立刻有变化

实在是太美了!

老年

才是一生中最好的年纪

就像是太阳正升到天顶

恰是光热最强烈的时候

就像是花朵正开到极致

正是色香最明艳的时候

人到老年

不再有少年的狂妄

青春的浪漫

却增添了对人生的感悟和理解

人到老年

不再有童年的笑脸

青春的美丽

人到老年

不再有童年的笑脸

青春的美丽

人到老年才明白

人生一世

无论成功与失败

欢乐与痛苦

盛衰与荣辱

都如自然流水

从哪里来还将回到哪里去

这就叫做百川归海、万物归一

人到老年才明白

世事并非黑白分明

黑白之间往往有着好多的中间色

所以

孤独、 失意、烦恼、痛苦

都是人生不可缺少的调味品

善待它们

就是善待人生

善待生命

人到老年才明白

并非人人都能够成功

不是人人都大有作为

但是每个人都有

各自的人生足迹

只要奋斗过

追求过

得失成败又算得了什么?

人到老年才明白

老了自有老了的风景

青春虽然艳丽

但会随着时间的流逝而褪色

只有青春的心境

才是生命中一道不变的色彩

所以

年老并不等于衰老

而对生活 失望、冷漠、厌倦

才是真正的衰老

人到老年才明白

世上没有完全合乎男人心意的女人

也没有完全合乎女人心意的男人

家庭的幸福美满

关键在于彼此的宽容、谅解

感恩、 敬重

人到老年

才开始闲下来

当我们进老年后

孩子多已经参加工作

他们成了家庭的主力军

我们便开始闲下来

才有了自己的生活

人到老年

才有享福的权力

年轻的时候

总想着等家业稳固了

等孩子大了

我们就可以享福了

如今我们真的老了

也是该安心地享受孩子们的关心和疼爱

让儿孙绕膝

尽享天伦之乐

这个时候

我们就是家庭的偶像

是家庭的精神维系

没有了老人

家庭就失去了一个宝

人到老年

才更从容不迫

人到老年

没有了年轻时候的滑头和闯劲

但考虑问题的周到和细致

却绝对胜过年轻人

我们只求在平凡的人世中

享受属于自己的那一份顺其自然的生活

真正步入了自由自在

快乐的人生境界

老年人

经过时间的洗礼

朴实而坚定

成熟而稳重

老年人

接受岁月的加冕

智慧而淡然

清醒而悠闲

老年

就是最好的年纪!
