Some Thoughts While Plucking Coconut Tree

"Yesterday's the past, tomorrow's the future, but today is a gift. That's why it's called the present" quotes by Bil Keane really sounds meaningful and it had enlighten my life. Well, sorry for writing a misleading post about "self sabotage" yesterday as my intention was to share the thoughts, symptoms and the ways to overcome it if you're one of the "victims" that being mentioned on that post. In the end, you're the only one who need to keep fighting to overcome the problem. During the morning, I helped my parents to pluck the coconut with a tree cutting branch saw. I used to be the so call "cutting coconut expert" in my house and the plucking usually done by my father. Recently he was having some health problem and I should in charge for plucking the coconut.

Somehow I do have some thoughts while plucking the coconut tree in front of my house. Well, it was quite a tiring process because the tree is huge and tall as it looks something similar to the picture below.
First you need to climb up the ladder while holding the tree saw to cut down the branch before reaching the peak of the coconut's branch. It require a lot of strength and patience since I was quite "tiny" in my body size as I felt like giving up after I had used up most of my energy. In the end, I managed to cut it down for few part and I guess there could be around 25+ pieces of coconut. Apparently the feeling of "success" really feeling great when you almost give up, yet you still able to make it at last although it took around 1 hours+ for the overall process.

After I had taken my lunch, I helped to continue paint the left side of the wall although I do get "scold" by my sister for something. Honestly, I do have some thoughts about why not outsource or delegate the painting task by paying others people to do it but when I think back, it would be a great way to save money since I'm not from those very rich background family like some friends as I were trying not to compare with others people. During the night, mother's hand was infected with fingernail fungus and she said that there is no other way other than a total nail removal that is recommended by the doctor since it is a virus as shown below.
I try to find some solutions from the internet such as the ways to treat fungal nail infection and other alternative ways that is possible when my mother came. (I felt down when saw the fingers)

Seriously this is quite sad to see your parents is getting older everyday as I kept make them worry about me. In fact, I really felt grateful and mother's hand is the greatness of the world because she helped us a lot in term of taking care of the house as a housewife although my mother didn't work after she had married to my father. Furthermore, I still recall what my sister said to me about the happiness in family and I felt sorry to her when I told my sister about some depressing words. This is because I often think about the ways to become more productive and the productive things shall be getting rewards in term of monetary but "mun" was right that helping parents is consider as a productive job. Nevertheless, I shall be grateful that I have some online friends that keep encourage me although I had disappoint them something by saying some depressive stuff.

Besides, Mr Twilight was right too that everyone have their own problem and they are controlling the situations but not let the situations control them. Afterall, I guess human is greedy because we always want more. Later on, I had do the things that I had not planned which is submitted my resume for more company instead of focusing those that is important. Perhaps I was desperate getting a job when the day kept passing like no body business. Before I end my post, I would like to share a meaningful quote that is "Don't forget you're human, it's okay to have a meltdown, just don't unpack and live there. Cry it out and then refocus on where you are headed" as shown below.
In addition, a picture with smile face will definitely cheer your day. It is because"One day passes, you will lose one day; One day passes with happiness, and you gain one day. In good spirit, sickness will cure; in happy spirit, sickness will cure fast; In good and happy spirit; sickness will never come." quotes by Mr "suituapui".
