My orchids

My orchids are flowering again. I do not build a proper pagola for my orchids. I just hang them on the manggo tree. I love my orchids.
Orkid ku babunga agik, repo nanang iya bah. Puas hati sabab bukatn nya sanang mo nanam orkid nyian.

Breathing Therapy for Headache and Tiredness

A few friends forwarded this same article to me within the last few days and I want to share it with you all.
I practised Yoga a few years back and did this breathing technique. Now, whenever I feel tired, tense or stress, I will do the breathing technique and it helps me to feel relax.

=======================================
The entry is in dual languages, English and Malay.

Practice this way and it will help you.... Our noses have left and right nostrils. Are these nostrils having the same function for inhaling (breathe in) and exhaling (breathe out)?
Kita memiliki hidung berlubang di sebelah kiri dan disebelah kanan, apakah fungsinya sama untuk menghirup dan membuang nafas?

Actually it's not the same and we can feel the difference. Accordingly, the right side represents the sun and the left side represents the moon.
Sebenarnya fungsinya tidak sama dan dapat kita rasakan perbezanya; sebelah kanan mewakili matahari (mengeluarkan panas) dan sebelah kiri mewakili bulan (mengeluarkan dingin).
When having headache, try to close your right nostril and use your left nostril to do breathing for about 5 min. The headache will be gone.
Jika sakit kepala, cubalah menutup lubang hidung sebelah kanan dan bernafaslah melalui hidung sebelah kiri dan lakukan kira-kira 5 minit, sakit kepala akan sembuh.
If you feel too tired, do it the opposite way. Close your left nostril and breathe through your right nostril. After a while, you will feel refresh again.
Jika Anda merasa letih, lakukan sebaliknya. Tutup lubang hidung sebelah kiri dan bernafaslah melalui hidung sebelah kanan. Tak lama kemudian, Anda akan merasakan segar kembali.

Because the right side belongs to heat, so it gets hot easily. The left side gets cold easily.
Sebab lubang hidung sebelah kanan mengeluarkan panas, sehingga ia mudah sekali panas, Lubang hidung sebelah kiri mengeluarkan dingin.

Women breathe mainly with their left nostril, so they get calm down easily.
Perempuan bernafas lebih dengan hidung sebelah kiri, sehingga hatinya mudah sekali dingin.

Men breathe mostly with their right nostril, so they get angry easily.
Laki-laki bernafas lebih dengan hidung sebelah kanan, sehingga mudah sekali marah.

When we wake up, do we notice which nostril breathes faster? Is it the left side or the right side?
Apakah Anda ada memperhatikan pada saat anda bangun, lubang hidung sebelah mana yang bernafas lebih cepat? Sebelah kiri atau kanan?

If the left nostril breathes faster, you will feel very tired. Close your left nostril and use your right nostril for breathing and you will get refresh quickly.
Jika lubang hidung sebelah kiri bernafas lebih cepat, Anda akan merasa sangat letih. Tutuplah lubang hidung sebelah kiri dan gunakan lubang hidung sebelah kanan untuk bernafas, Anda akan merasa segar kembali dengan cepat.

You can teach your kids about it. The effect of breathing therapy is much better for adults.
Cara tersebut boleh diajarkan kepada anak-anak, tetapi efeknya akan lebih baik diterapkan kepada orang dewasa.

I used to have painful headache. When consulted a doctor, he told me jokingly," You will be all right if you get married!" The doctor did not bullshit me as he had his theory and supported with testimony.
Saya biasanya merasakan sakit kepala. Kemudian saya berubat dengan doktor dan dia mengatakan,"Awak akan sembuh jika berumahtangga!" Doktor itu bukan bercakap kosong. Apa yang dia sampaikan disokong dengan teori dan testimoni.

During that time, I used to have headache every night and I was not able to study. I took medicine but I was not cured.
Pada saat itu, setiap malam saya merasakan sakit kepala dan tidak dapat belajar. Saya makan ubat, tetapi tidak dapat sembuh.

One night as I sat down to medidate, I closed my right nostril and breathed with my left nostril. In less than a week, it seemed that my headache problem had left me! I continued doing it for about a month and since then there was no recurrence of headache in me.
Pada suatu malam. saya duduk bermeditasi dan menutup lubang hidung sebelah kanan dan bernafas dengan lubang hidung sebelah kiri. Dalam kurang dari satu minggu, sakit kepala saya sembuh. Saya teruskan melakukannya selama 1 bulan, sejak malam itu sampai sekarang , sakit kepala saya tidak ada lagi.

This is my own experience. I used to tell others who also suffer headache to try this method as it was effective for me. It also works for those who have tried as well. This is a natural therapy, unlike taking medicines for a long time may have side effect. So, why don't you try it out?
Ini adalah yang saya alami sendiri. Saya beritahukan kepada orang lain, jika sakit kepala, boleh mencuba cara tersebut, sebab sangat efektif buat saya. Banyak orang pun telah mencuba dan berhasil. Ini adalah terapi secara semulajadi, tidak seperti memakan ubat dalam jangka panjang akan ada efek sampingnya. Jadi kenapa Anda tidak mencubanya?

Practice the correct ways of breathing (breathe in and breathe out) and your body will be in a very relaxing condition.
Selalulah mencuba terapi pernafasan ini, tubuh Anda akan merasa sangat tenang sekali (rilek).

=========================
Note:
The individu who practised this breathing therapy was not indicated.
Nama individu yang mempraktikkan terapi pernafasan ini tidah dinyatakan.

Why people shout when they disagree?

Shout!!!

Received this from a friend today. Interesting to know why people shout when they are angry, unhappy, etc. Read on below.

===========================================

A guru asked her disciples, 'Why do we shout in anger? Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?'

The disciples thought for a while, then one of them said, 'Because we lose our calm, we shout due to that.'

'But, why to shout when the other person is just next to you?' asked the teacher. 'Isn't it possible to speak to him or her with a soft voice? Why do you shout at a person when you're angry?'

Her disciples gave some other answers but none were satisfactory.

Finally she explained, 'When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance themselves. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other through that great distance.'

Then the guru asked, 'What happens when two people fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk softly. Why? Because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is very little...'

The guru continued, 'When they love each other even more, what happens? They do not speak, only whisper and they get even closer to each other in their love. Finally they need not even whisper, they only look at each other and that's all. That is how close two people are when they love each other.'


=========================================
MORAL: When you argue do not let your hearts get distant, do not say words that distance each other more, else there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return.

Yes for Celcom Broadband

The Vodafone Mobile Connect USB Stick
Yes, I subscribed to Celcom Broadband today since they gave special promotion price at RM199.00 for the USB stick and RM100.00 for the upfront payment. The promotion price was cheaper (by 50%) than the earlier price quoted to me last month.
Now, I am bonded with Celcom Broadband for 24 months. The condition, if I intend to terminate my subscription earlier, I will be penalised with a fee of RM150.00. I do not have much choices because only Celcom has wider coverage in Sarawak. I am sure the speed and network are reliable within my residential area.

Inspirational Story : Do Not Hurt Yourself

Sharing with you all this inspirational story which being circulated to my mail today.

==========================================

One night a snake, looking for food, entered a carpenter's workshop. The carpenter, who was a rather untidy man, had left several of his tools lying on the floor. One of them was a saw.

As the snake went round and round the shop, he climbed over the saw, which gave him a little cut. At once, thinking that the saw was attacking him, he turned around and bit it so hard that his mouth started to bleed. This made him very angry.

He attacked again and again until the saw was covered with blood and seemed to be dead. Dying from his own wounds, the snake decided to give one last hard bite then turned away.

The next morning the carpenter was surprised to find a dead snake on his doorstep.

Moral: Sometimes in trying to hurt others, we only hurt ourselves
