mass civic today was awesome :)
thankyou Lionel :D
heeee!
Lionel showed us a video which featured Dewitt Jones,
a National Geographic Photographer for more than 20 years.
It was about what he has learnt while taking photographs of people,
mother nature, and this world.
He pointed out a few things which really made a lot of sense to me. I start to question myself too.
His perspective of viewing the world positively and making time out of limited time tells me that
i can too, persevere despite undesirable circumstances.
Vision controls Perception. & Perception becomes reality.
I never really understood the importance of having a vision in my life.
However, i've learnt today that having a vision, would give you a goal.
It can act as a reminder to myself, that end the of the day, i would like to be
such a person. Hence, push on, Zhi Ting.
And then the question comes, "Can i trust my own values and vision enough to step
out of my edge?"
it takes courage, faith. And as humans, sometimes all these motivation just
do not appear. That's why i become skeptical of my own abilities, right?
Dewitt Jones said, "No matter how desperate we are, as long as there is a glimmer
of hope, we can keep on going". This is perseverance. This is persistence. This is not giving up.
This is hoping. During this process, it's not easy, there would be ups and downs, happy and sad moments.
And how are we going to deal with all these?
"By celebrating the best, that allows us to fall in love with it. By celebrating the best, we have the energy
to fix what's wrong."
I really really think this is veryyyyyyyyyyy impactful. It's a wonder that by putting such simple, individual
words together, they can form something so meaningful and encouraging :D
yes, we'll keep on going, keep on going.
