Non-violence means dialogue, using our language, the human language. Dialogue means compromise; respecting each other’s rights; in the spirit of reconciliation there is a real solution to conflict and disagreement. There is no hundred percent winner, no hundred percent loser-not that way but half-and-half. That is the practical way, the only way.

Sighed!!! The busiest day has finally arrived. OCS Alpha, SMI, Naval Diving Unit, 2SIR, 10SIB/9DIV, ATEC and OCS CHARLIE and HOTEL will be here one after another until late May 04. $850/- allowance are not easy to earn!!! Just hope that my EOT will come soon!!!

I wanna go back to the land where I belong!!!! MY SINGAPORE, MY HOME.

One of the major aims and purposes of religious practice for the individual is an inner transformation from an undisciplined, untamed, and unfocused state of mind towards one that is disciplined, tamed and balanced.
