Power of Purpose

This is the third and last of my tripartite nature of Man series, the Spirit part after I've covered the Body(Power of Interaction) and Mind(Power of Reason).

My father had a keen interest in photography, a strong habit in organizing and filing documents or photographs which I believe was passed on to me. He was influential or a strong guide to his four sons in education, who helped me choose a profession that had a "Chartered" title like he had, and passed that to a couple of my brothers too. It was a title inherited from the British that ruled Malaya to eventually become known as Malaysia where I was born a year after independence in 1958.

By the time I graduated and later worked as an articled clerk to become a Chartered Accountant, the British way of becoming a professional, my Consciousness in life had made me quite a different Man with a different Purpose.









I ended up with a unique resume of my own with a strong spiritual background.











Not many words were shared in this journal. It is the Spirit domain of life that even the famous Greek philosopher Plato kept silent after naming the Body for Appetites and Mind for Reason.

I would conclude with the Bird stories of my life and allow readers to meditate and ponder themselves the purpose of their own life, that they may find power in it, as I have found for my own life.

I just had to memorize all that was taught to me, according to a set of published curriculum, to be able to answer questions posed to me in the official examinations.  I basically fulfilled what my Father desired from education as he himself, coming from a poor financial background, climbed his way up through Academia with scholarships to study in the United Kingdom and later to Holland for an advance course in photogrammetric engineering. Being born in 1921 in the era of British Malaya, he became the father of 5 boys where he knew how to guide them through the education system that he was well versed but maybe didn't have to worry abou

The Power of Interaction

Before the start of a Pandemic lockdown in Malaysia that began on 18 March 2020   The above photos were all taken at Blue Boy Mansion except the bottom right as my 2nd daughter was expecting her 2nd child and did not fly the distance from US. The 3 pics were taken within a couple of months before the Pandemic hit the whole country not forgetting the world! My 2nd grand daughter is seen in the photo taken after she was born in April of 2020. The borders soon all became closed and I would lose physical contact with my close family members. How did I feel in my heart, mind and soul? In the period of less than two years since the lockdown, strangely I considered myself to be in the busiest time of my life! Why so? Listen to this latest online opportunity I had to express myself. I spoke from my heart mainly as my mind was fuzzy about years or figures. It was an impromptu dialogue, not a prepared speech. I was fully 'Interacting' with the host, highlighting the power of 'Intera
