Fill your body and mind

 every morning, we wake up well rested (most of time) with empty stomach and clear mind Make a decent breakfast, wholesome, with lots of clean food to start the day. Let your body take in the best food first thing you wake up Then, while having that breakfast, think about how good life had been, especially if you can see your loved ones, spouse, kids all safe and sound in the home you made. This is to fill your clear mind with gratitude and love That’s how I strive to start my day every time. Life is one day at a time and we make full use of it without regrets

Megan

Why work so hard

 Being back in work after a semi retirement puts things in new perspectives.

driving under influence of kpods

This is fucking getting out of hand. This is no different compared to drink driving. In fact, it's even worse, since these jokers can puff their kpods anytime they want, anywhere while driving. They are addicted and can't control themselves. Below is just what is report in media due to coverage and injury. Pretty sure there are lot more unreported ones, including near misses, drivers who drove haphazardly, against flow of traffic etc. What recourse do innocent road users injured by such incidents? 30 Aug 2025 2 men arrested after car crash in Hougang; cops seize vapes and crystal-like drug from drivers https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/courts-crime/2-men-arrested-after-car-crash-in-hougang-cops-seize-vapes-and-crystal-like-drug-from-drivers?ref=more-on-this-topic 5 Sep 2025 Driver under the influence of ‘intoxicating substances’ arrested after hit-and-run in Bukit Batok https://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/courts-crime/driver-under-the-influence-of-intoxicating-substance...
