• Sungai Buloh Settlement

    Sungai Buloh Leprosy Centre, a legacy of the British government, was built in 1930 to cater for the leprosy victims then. It catered specifically for those suffering from leprosy, which at that time was considered an incurable disease. After some 85 years, there are sill 70 to 80 victims staying in the dilapidated centre. On 15 Aug 2015, Sungai Buloh Settlement, as it is also known, will be celebrating its 85th anniversary. An open day will be organized on that day. In my small way, I had purchased some coupons to the celebration. My dear friend, a Mr. Lim would present the coupons to an old folk’s home and arrange…

  • A small act

    Last weekend I went to local newspaper company where usually people in need will publish their difficuties and ask for a help in a charity section of a newspaper. Hence, I donated to a few, poor and sick old folks that have no child and also a handicap kidney patient.I know I could not do much to really change their life but just a small token to support them with what I can.After donating, I make a sincere wish for them to leave suffering.

  • Reverend Heng Sure Talks in Kuala Lumpur on 10-11 July 2015

    My enlightened experience for attending Dharma talks by Reverend Heng Sure.On both nights of 9th July 2015 and 10th July 2015, my husband and I, were at the Dharma Realm Guanyin Sagely Monastery (Deng Bi An), Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia listening to a Dharma Talk by Reverend Heng Sure.We had not expected Reverend Heng Sure to be such a high ranking monk to be so humble. And he is technology savvy, meticulous and diligent at his work, and a good guitarist (the plucking of the strings are very clear)We sang two Buddhism songs, one to the tune of Amazing Graze, with him leading and also playing his guitar.We also…

    I didn’t do an act of kindness I can remember at the moment, but I will share the songs with my students! Does that count?

  • Injured squirrel

    We were driving in our neighborhood and saw an injured squirrel on the road, but it was still alive/twitching. Stopping by on the side of the road, we asked the neighbor whose house was right there and we asked for a cardboard box or something so we could transport it to our backyard to help it recover. After a while, they came up with a pizza box and we brought the lucky squirrel home and left it in our yard. The next day, he was gone. Apparently he found a new home to live! 😀

  • Helping

  • Gratitude for a Friend

    My best friend who is always going through thick and thin with me and doing things to help me through difficult times. Slowly because of work we stopped communicating and became distant. Yesterday something happened and she had to help me cover up at work and “saved my ass”. Then she said she is disappointed that I lost trust in her because I didn’t tell her I would be late and the reason for being late. I felt really sorry I showed mistrust in our relationship because we used to be best friends. But she felt things changed. I couldn’t help but felt sour, and I cried, and I held…
