"A tree is known by its fruit; a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love."
Speedysid, it can be of a simplest good deed like: helping a blind cross the street, or offering a lift to someone who's walking under the rain, or paying someone's else coffee when she forgots her wallet :P, or anything.. it doesnt have to compromise your own happiness but instead it'll make you mooooore happy :)
I agree TSP.. but, what is our heart becomes selfish? So despite having the best intentions, and even making someone happy, we may end up cheating ourselves... But again, a new point springs up- "Does you happiness matter most to you or someone else's?"
I concur... It does feel good.. but then, without expecting anything in return, if you do it to 'feel good' (on purpose), you are just contradicting the intention.
That's why, I think, it is better to do a particular good deed, and detach yourself away from its outcome.

Secret Stare...
TimeBandit, You still wish for a good deed??? i am here now, though Khanan is not here.. but i can fulfill ;P
Blank Stare
Ukeng, here's the lyrics of Batibot for you to memorize. You can recite it (as you dont know how to sing it yet) while doing FreeMasons' job.
Pagmulat ng mata,
Langit nakatawa
Sa batibot,
Sa batibot
Tayo nang magpunta
Tuklasin sa batibot
Ang tuwa, ang saya
Doon sa batibot
Tayo na, tayo na
Mga bata sa batibot
Maliksi, masigla. (2x)
Dali, sundan natin
Ang ngiti ng araw
Doon sa batibot (2x)
Tayo nang magpunta
Tuklasin sa batibot
Ang tuwa, ang saya
Doon sa batibot
Tayo na, tayo na
Mga bata sa batibot
Maliksi, masigla. (2x)
:)
ahahahah tryin' to be smart Ukeng? okay, this time I have a curfew :P
lol UkEng !
along with 'batibot' i will get a Goat, he will dance along the tunes of batibot....:)
Ok Girls when can you be free, so me, Rizks and TB can sing that song along with you? Only one condition you not tell anyone afterwards..:)
lol batibot! now Rizks and Ukeng can sing the same song hahahaah
You are right TheSweeyiePie. I didn't really mean concrete mixing. lol! I remember my filipino colleague here who always sing "batibot!"
I wish someone would do me a good deed and not tell anyone ;)
Always believed that,as long as you speak kind words, think kind thoughts and perform kind deeds with the right intention,we'll never go wrong...
Yes Ukeng! They also want not to be disturbed...they want be alone when working to be satisfied with their own job.
mariecor, i don't think they are mixing concrete :P
TB..ssshhh Freemasons are supposed to be secret society!
Free masons? Mixing concrete using hands? lol!
They are Free Masons... don't ask
I'm curious of the "right and left hand deed" Risks & Ukeng were talking about.
go ahead britexpat, all the best ;)
It's still a long day everyone, so do it :)
I'll sleep now, I mean SweetiePie..
I am ready and willing to do "the deed". It'll be our secret :o)
oops!
Speedysid, it can be of a simplest good deed like: helping a blind cross the street, or offering a lift to someone who's walking under the rain, or paying someone's else coffee when she forgots her wallet :P, or anything.. it doesnt have to compromise your own happiness but instead it'll make you mooooore happy :)
I agree Eliashamzo..

@ sweetpie - U too have blessed day & great weekend!!!,,
btw ppl over here seem to be so addictive to coffee???
Rizks The right hand must have been more warmer then the left hand after that deed?
And no good deed goes unpunished :0(
But I continue to persevere because there's a higher calling...
i did a good deed with my right hand and 'Strange' my left hand didnt even knew about it ? :(
Khanan The same good deed that you were offered a few years ago in a Car park? lol
Yes buddy a coffee or meal at Zaoq is well over due!
well said Speedysid, but we don't do good deed just to feel good purposely. We do this, because our heart tells us to do so :)
Looks like Khanan wants to get an idea from Ukeng.
can you please elobarate further your late night ventures and feeling good, for the OP ? ;)
I concur... It does feel good.. but then, without expecting anything in return, if you do it to 'feel good' (on purpose), you are just contradicting the intention.
That's why, I think, it is better to do a particular good deed, and detach yourself away from its outcome.
that's great Ukeng ;) doing something and makin' you feel good about it.
Cheers to a cup of coffee??
I am avilbale for the coffee.
When ?
don't ask Rizks... remember, it's suppose not to be told :)
Sweetie Pie I also work late at night and help the less fortunate at a special place in Doha.
I am not able to say what it is.. But it does make me feel good..:)

TB Well done buddy what it is, and please do not tell anyone..
