Since life is never transparent,
I have no choice but to sharpen my own insight.
In so doing, I become stronger and more resilient and can look squarely at its face.
Dr Peter Lim Nov 2017
I am not an enemy of life, nor do I wish to court its favours.
On my own I stand, though I am just an ordinary person with all my vulnerabilities and frailties.

As such,  I would not lose my equilibrium under all circumstances.
Dr Peter Lim Nov 2017
Life is a story-teller but most of its stories are about pain and suffering.  Why can't it give us joyful stories?
Dr Peter Lim Nov 2017
Why is the fool laughing?
Why is the philosopher weeping?
Dr Peter Lim Nov 2017
Some day I'd wish to do something wonderful but at the moment I've no inkling at all what that would be.
Dr Peter Lim Nov 2017
Don't let life control you
you should be its master.
Dr Peter Lim Nov 2017
You don't understand life
by analysing
but by
living.
