Batang Ai Hydroelectric Dam


Last week, I went for a field trip to Batang Ai Dam. It is located at Batang Ai National Park in Sarawak, Malaysia (coordinate 01°08′50″N 111°52′26″E) and is operated by Sarawak Electricity Supply Corporation (SESCO). The 24 km2 dam could power up to 100MW (MegaWatt) with its 4 massive turbine!

The journey there started at about 8am and reached the destination at about 2.30pm with some stops along the journey (Serian, Lachau, Sri Aman, Lubok Antu). A normal journey without stops will be about 3-4 hours.

Every places there is a special landmark. In Sarawak, statue of Cats (Kuching), Durian (Serian), Pigeon Bird (Sri Aman) and Fish (Batang Ai).

DID I MARRY THE RIGHT PERSON?


A story picked from somewhere.....


During one of our seminars, a woman asked a common question. She said, " How do I know if I married the right person ?"

I noticed that there was a large man sitting next to her so I said, " It Depends. Is that your husband?"

In all seriousness, she answered " How do you know?"

Let me answer this question because the chances are good that it's Weighing on your mind.

Here's the answer.

EVERY relationship has a cycle. In the beginning, you fell in love with Your spouse. You anticipated their call, wanted their touch, and liked Their idiosyncrasies.

Falling in love with your spouse wasn't hard. In fact, it was a Completely natural and spontaneous experience. You didn't have to DO anything. That's why it's called "falling" in love... Because it's happening TO YOU.

People in love sometimes say, " I was swept of my feet." Think about the Imagery of that _expression. It implies that you were just standing There; doing nothing, and then something came along and happened TO YOU.

Falling in love is easy. It's a passive and spontaneous experience.

But after a few years of marriage, the euphoria of love fades. It's the Natural cycle of EVERY relationship. Slowly but surely, phone calls Become a bother ( if they come at all), touch is not always welcome ( when it happens), and your spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute, drive you nuts.

The symptoms of this stage vary with every relationship, but if you Think about your marriage, you will notice a dramatic difference between the initial stage when you were in love and a much duller or even angry subsequent stage.

At this point, you and/or your spouse might start asking, " Did I marry The right person?" And as you and your spouse reflect on the euphoria of The love you once had, you may begin to desire that experience with someone else.

This is when marriages breakdown. People blame their spouse for their Unhappiness and look outside their marriage for fulfillment.

Extramarital fulfillment comes in all shapes and sizes. Infidelity is The most obvious. But sometimes people turn to work, church, a hobby, a friendship, excessive TV, or abusive substances.

But the answer to this dilemma does NOT lie outside your marriage. It lies within it.

I'm not saying that you couldn't fall in love with someone else. You Could.

And TEMPORARILY you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same situation a few years later. Because ( listen carefully to this):

THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT'S LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND.

SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It'll NEVER just happen to you. You can't "find " LASTING love. You have to "make" it day in and day out. That's why we have the _expression " the labor of love."

Because it takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly, it Takes WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO to make your marriage work.

Make no mistake about it. Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific Things you can do ( with or without your spouse ) to succeed with your marriage.

Just as there are physical laws of the universe ( such as gravity),

There are also laws for relationships. Just as the right diet and exercise Program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your Relationship WILL make your marriage stronger. It's a direct cause and effect. If you know and apply the laws, the results are predictable. .. You can " make" love.

Love in marriage is indeed a " decision"... Not just a feeling.

Friendship


I've been thinking of it for the past few days. Friendship?

Friendship are basically formed through trust and mutual understanding. Simple but yet hard to achieve!

I realized that there are several stages of friendships. And every stages of friendship occurs at a different time of your life. And each time of occurrence, the friendship will have a different level of impact in your life. Each impact will affect the bonding strength of your friendship. And the bonding will determine the degree of intimacy between your friend and you.

You will have different friends at a different stages of your life. It's not how many friends you've made, but it's how you maintain the friendships.


Recent study found that social ties boost survival by 50 percent and bad for a person's health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day or being an alcoholic.

Dr. Julianne Holt-Lunstad says:"A naturally occurring friendship is very different than someone who has been hired to be your buddy or your friend."

Research has shown that friends "provide a sense of meaning or purpose in our lives," she says. 

"A professional "friend" might be able to provide some tangible resources that would be helpful, but they might not be able to provide the emotional benefits."

"There are types of things you can get from an online friend, but there are other resources that you cannot.

Although online connections "might be better than nothing," substituting time in front of a screen is likely not as beneficial as a phone call or face-to-face conversation.

What she said was very true!


However, do not make frenemy as it raises blood pressure! Frenemy is the enemy disguised as friend. There are a lot of frenemy around you especially in this realistic world. They will talk something bad behind you and you knew it but both of you still pretend he or she is your friend.

Nowadays, most friends tend to get something from you in by befriended with you. Those are hypocrite! You give them some benefits and they will happily be your friend. But, when they could not gain benefit from you anymore, they will leave you.

However, this might not always be the case as some of them are just too busy with their life managing other friends and accidentally neglected you. Call them even though they did not call you. You might be surprise what the outcome would be!

So, give more calls to your friends, meet outside, order a coffee, sit down and have heart to heart conversations.


Treasure each of your friends. Be sincere and honest to them. Love them!
