Plan your retirement early in life.

blue waters off kapas island ! ...awaiting for you too.

,,,,,, Mama mia !

eeeeerrrmmm !!

,,,The most precious, creative and innovative period in your life is the 10-year period around the age of 32.

,,,Plan your career path to use this precious 10-year period wisely and effectively to produce your greatest achievements in your life.

,,,The pace of innovations and technology advances is getting faster and faster and is forcing everybody to compete fiercely at the Internet speed on the information super-highways. The highly productive and highly efficient workplace in this present world is a pressure-cooker and a high-speed battle ground for highly creative and dynamic young people to compete and to flourish.

,,,However, when you get older, you should plan your career path and financial matter so that you can retire comfortably at the age of 55 or earlier to enjoy your long, happy and leisure retirement life into your golden age of 80s and beyond.

,,,In retirement, you can still enjoy some fun work of great interest to you and of great values to the society and the community, but at a part-time leisure pace on your own term.

,,,On the other hand, if you are not able to get out of the pressure-cooker or the high-speed battle ground at the age of 55 and “have” to keep on working very hard until the age of 65 or older before your retirement, then you probably will die within 18 months of retirement.

,,,By working very hard in the pressure cooker for 10 more years beyond the age of 55, you give up at least 20 years of your life span on average.

,,,Don't forget to enjoy life and living all the time while still being alive in this world !.

,,,And what's money ?. A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night, and in between he does whatsoever he wants to. In fact, I just cannot afford to waste my time making money and so should you matey !. Success is relative. It is what we can make of the bloody mess we have made of things.

,,,Life is like a shipwreak, but don't forget to sing in the lifeboats. hahaha !

,,,,, finally my island home away from Home.

KapasPirateKing

"Meself & New Island Home".

Running free and now half blind

With the wind helping me glide

Myself flying through my dreams

The sand is so white and gentle.

chopper at kapas

On my poor so worn down feet

I have to fly away from the city

Run away to a better place.

A better place called home !

A soft cold breeze of early morning

Just ruffles my feathers.

Faster.. Further..

Meself have no cares no fear

in this small world.

The little that I am.

Touching, loving, caring my heart afloats.

Carried on by that lost loving feeling.

Finally my new island home alone away from Home !!.

,,,Hahaha .....finally marooned now at Kapas Island during the NE Monsoon and stormy seas.

,,,its wet/cold/hungry but am happy, with no worries in the world !. Only Kapas Island will be my home alone. hohohoo !.

Helping fellow Malaysians.

,,,lest we forget, we malaysians are a bunch of very sensitive creatures, easily slighted and offended. When hurt we are resentful, when happy we radiate joy. Unpleasant people must therefore be properly understood and at times forgiven too. Just be kind to them poor lost souls, they are fighting life's tough battles.

,,,A person most likely become what he is expected to be. His/Her development responds to expectation and treatment from others. Confidence and self image are continuously being shape since infancy. If one is groomlike a champion, he/she will perform well, but if you repeatedly tellhim/her is an idiot, he/she will soon believe it !...... its the Pygmalion effect !.

,,,In life and living, we will never achieve much without the help and support of others. Life is short, strive to make others and oneself happy. When you make others happy, you feel happy too. Millions of lives sink into failure and sadness, all because peopleare waiting for the world to change towards them, without wanting to change themselves.

,,,in life you get something in return for what you put in, otherwise you get nothing for nothing !.

"treat people as if thay were what they ought to be, and you help them to become what they are capable of being ".....its no bloody big secret to it !

Healthy Aging Anyone.

For a start, many ancient Chinese emperors went to great length and on the relentless search for elixir of eternal youth. Haha !...today, the fervent quest has not let up, especially among wealthy ladies !. (reminds me of mdm Piggy too hehehe !) For most of us, it is more realistic to pack more youthful and lively years into our given life span. We must truely live, not merely exist. Its bloody awful to sit around moping and mourning. Enjoyng life to the full is perhaps the best way to lengthen it. Perhaps our greatest loss is the life that dies inside uswhile we are alive, the life rejuvenated by humour, optimism, vitality and enthusiasm.

Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them -- that is why you pay them.
Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.
Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. "An idle mind is the devil's workshop." And the devil's name is Alzheimer's.
Enjoy the simple things.
Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.
The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.
Surround yourself with what you love, whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.
Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.
Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county. Travel to a foreign country, but NOT to where the guilt is.
Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.

And Always Remember...Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away

An Alternative way against Cancer.

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY AND ELIMINATE CANCER, many good people are STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY … plus an old traditional & Capt's way !.....hey !

1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.

3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.

6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.

7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.

8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.

9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.

10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.

11. An effective way to battle cancer is to STARVE the cancer cells by not feeding it with foods it needs to multiple. What cancer cells feed on: a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells.

Note: Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.

b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soy milk, cancer cells will starved.

c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.

d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes t o nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).

e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water--best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.

12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines will become putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.

13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.

14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.

15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger, unforgiving and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.

16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

NOTE; But one final traditional & Capt's way,,,,,,,,eat Lemon Grass (Serai) everyday, your cancer will die away.

O.K. Cheers Matey and I have made my say and my day !

Not retirement-lah... But admirement

Toning up for a healthy lifestyle.

Just enjoy life & living by keeping fit in mind and body !. First take charge of our health, we will live exiciting, challenging and productive lives. Don't just sit back on your fat asses and age like some of our parents did....O.K ?. If we want to age successfully, then we must make a conscious choice to do so.
Healthy ageing is about learning how to keep the life force strong within us. We can do this with self-love, and with good food and exercise.
Our bodies need fresh, living foods, such as fruits, vegetables, and cereals, as well as small amounts of meat, poultry and fish.
It is crucial to our well-being to love and appreciate ourselves in a sustained way. Loving our bodies is important at any stage of our lives, but it is absolutely vital as we grow older.
Sycophantic ?. Don't you believe it !!...it works buddy.
Hating your body won't make it better or younger or beautiful. Love your body, and it will love you back. When you love yourself, others will love you too.

our thoughts and our words shape our experience. So without saying, we can quite unknowingly, just by thinking, contribute to our health or to our diseases. Its in the neuropeptides, the chemical messages in our nut skull that travel to every part of our body, touching every cell and depositing a bit of that special chemical in it. Poisonous thoughts poison our bodies. Don't indulge in negative thinking, it will make us sick and kill us prematurely. Negative thinking produces negative experiences. If we want to change our lives for the better, we must learn to think thoughts that support us and help improve the quality of our lives.

When we love and appreciate who we are, we naturally take better care of ourselves.

Next.....Keeping fit ?....hahahaaaaaah...relex dulu o.k. need to take a pee break.... hehehe !!

to be cont.......

O.K. am back, just noticed that my pee is clear like water and that is a good sign. If it is colored than your body lacks water, such you are unhealthy too.

Keeping fit starts in the mind and lets turn our attention to ways and means to keep the body in good order.

If you don't exercise, you find that fat displace muscle, and muscles become smaller and weaker, in a process known as atrophy. Weak muscles can't protect your joints or help to provide the strength needed for balance, so you become more prone to falls. Without exercise, your bones, joints and spinal column tend to become thin and porous, in a condition known as osteoporosis.

Just perform an half an hour's exercise or physical activity a day, you can really improve your health. When you exercise, you help to reduce fat tissue at the same time as building muscle and bone. With exercise, bones rebuld and repair themselves. Exercise can also help cut the risk of heart disease and strokes. It will stop you from feeling tired, help reduce stress, depression, and anxiety, and increase self-confidence.

If you aren't used to exercising, build up the amount you do gradually. You should start with two sessions of 15 minutesper day and steadily build up to half an hour in one go. Whatever you do, increase the time and intensity of the exercise gently. If you suffer any pain or disconfortable stiffness, stop and try again another time. Relax and take it easy o.k. ?

Most people would start off with walking as their exercise. Try walking to the shops or friends house instead of getting in the car. Enjoy the walk too. If you are over weight, suffers from back trouble or arthritis or have a disability, try out swimming ?.

Cycling isa cheap and healthy way to keep fit. Or why not join a dancing class ?. It gives you the chance to dressed up as well. There are classes available in all types of dance.

So that it folks !.....exercise and enjoy it too. Sex is also a good exercise. So get screwed as much as possible ! hahaaaah !.

howdy mat,
,,,what is the effect of pill kuda as compared to heroin ? coz. my crew still is on it !.,,,when he is not on his horse ride, his attitude towards work is so negative but when high riding will work is guts out non stop like crazy. in fact, hyper creative too and i have to hold him back from his too many initiatives, half finish most times too, lacking in priorities and bloody mean as times in language with others !!,,,vert taxing too for me to handle some of his changing moods but am a brutal guy so he knows when to stop being funny when my body language plus advise/comment reach a point too. The problem with meself is, 99% am cool but that 1% am totally bloody physical and its the ICU for some that had unfortunately crossed that line ! (sorry, am just being bloody honest yaa)..its my way during the 1% period, no mercy whatsoever and wheresoever and whosoever too. BUT it has produced positive results and failures. The change in mindset must come from within oneself, am just a helping hands..big brother kind off only. The 1% factor keeps command & control in place too. hehehe !!…. scary scary indeed but its for real and they bloody know it too b4 its too late for some !.
cheers mate,
Capt.

Actually you have already answered the question you had posed about pil kuda as compared to heroin! Pil kuda aka methamphetamine – it makes the user aggressive. Notice the “work his guts out”. It’s legal in some countries where you can buy it with a doctor’s prescription. Some lorry/bus drivers take it to remain alert.
The `good’ thing about it is that it doesn’t result in physical addiction; in the sense that you will hurt during withdrawal. However, the mental addiction is powerful enough to make you lethargic and dispirited. If there’s a `choice’ here somewhere, I’d much prefer someone to be using it rather than heroin/morphine. Not that I’m saying it’s okay, but only as “the lesser evil”.
Heroin (and morphine too, of course) – The effect is more subtle. It actually makes one at peace with anything and everything. Results in enthusiasm when doing something, like pil kuda too – minus the aggressiveness. But the withdrawal – I wouldn’t wish it on an enemy.

Thanks Mat,
,,,you gave me the feedback that reconfirmed my take too on subject matter with regards to the lesser devil, for my advise to this guy is, if he ever get back to heroin then its the marching order to walk the plank as far as am concerned. Period !,,,what about their inner urge to steal ?. Since most of them have had some experience in taking things without permission in-order to get the money to support their addiction !.,,,in this case, he is well paid for the job on the island and everything else are being cater for. In fact, money is the least of an issue and I make sure that its catered for accordingly with bonus for term breaks/holidays. The only issue is that once he is back on the main land, he will finish off all his hard earned cash within one or max. 3 x days !. That is beyond my control but very stupid of him-lah.,,,my concern is does his ’stealing’ mindset still very strongly ingrained because of his pill kuda habits ?. Can we trust him from engaging in such activities again ?. How would he promised yet lie about it !?. How much trust can we have on such matters, indeed its a personal issue but lets look/view at it in general from an drug addict angle/perspective-lah.,,,tell me more about the ‘mindset’ of such individuals from your close experience with such characters. So that I can have even more appreciation of subject matter too.
regards,
Capt.
