How I use and interpret Sun Tzu’s Art of War

Anger
12."There are five dangerous faults which may affect a general. One of it is a hasty temper, which can be provoked by insults. This means holding your anger." (Chapter 8: VARIATION IN TACTICS)
I always had a quick tongue and an even quicker anger. I used to say what I feel and do things without much thought. That is the why I was most of the time passed over for promotions. Even though I knew the job very well. Now I'm more controlled now.

5. The general, unable to control his irritation, will launch his men to the assault like swarming ants, with the result that one-third of his men are slain, while the town still remains untaken. Such are the disastrous effects of a siege. (Chapter 3. ATTACK BY STRATAGEM)

A Weed to some, a beautiful flower to me

I was playing around with our companies new Canon 1000 D. Trying to figure out the works. Took a closeup of this flower which most people overlook and say its a weed. The picture shows a beautiful flower. What this means to me is never judge something on what others say but see it for your self and you be the judge yourself. Same goes with life never judge something on what others say. You be your own judge.

Valentine's Day

Valentine's day . A day when couple's shower each other with gifts. This is the time when all lovers faces the dilemma as to what to give their loved ones. Some of the common ones are roses and teddy bears. As for me, I turn to the infinite resources of the World Wide Web. I look for that special thing to make my sweetheart feel special. I've found out that most women like something different from the norm and even something handmade. One example is a friend of mine made a simple Valentine's gift which not only his girlfriend loved it,it was the envy of the other girls who got expensive presents. The reason is, his effort to make the gift really touched everyone's heart. What he did was wrap a small ring box with light purple nylon rope, put a small pink plastic rose on it. Inside he put some pink cotton and a small heart shape card with the words "My heart is yours now" . His girlfriend was beaming when she got it. As for me this year, I'm going to plant my other half a rose garden. As always I will be surfing the web for romantic garden designs.

As I have always believed, you can celebrated Valentine's everyday, don't limit yourself to only one day. My page Romantic Ideas -Keeping the Flame Alive has some ideas of what I have done.
