Live well, work hard, play play? 
.
Be quiet. Let the silence surround you. The week shall start soon and the noise will invade. No matter. Rest your eyes and close your ears. The world outside disappears. Peaceful and restful are you. Sleep.
.
.
Be amused. So many colourful characters come your way. Your life is a many-splendoured journey. Fear not making a fool of yourself; amusing others in turn is a virtue. You bring laughter and joy to the world. You share your sparkling wit and your good humour. Aliens and robots and strangers. We are all friends, we are all mates. Keep smiling. You have such a beautiful smile.
.
.
Be incredible. Make faces and make magic together. Be best friends forever and weave your stories into the lives of others. What we share, what we can barely comprehend, is a song for which everyone contributes a strand, a verse, a universal melody. Be not afraid to love so very completely.
.
.
Be happy. Be sad, when it’s time to be sad, but know that sadness passes, and joy always returns. The bliss is knowing that it’s not his or hers nor theirs or ours but that we switch and we swap and we all have our moment and all our hours, and the rhythm comes as we step into place, our feet keeping pace, as we press cheek against cheek, tears flowing down in streaks and our hot breath as we kiss, and each new day we won’t miss for we will always have the courage a good life to face.

so cute! love the shots.. cannot imagine this bunch being sad.. maybe temporarily miffed.. dats about it! LOL
We call “this bunch”, as you put it, The Happy-Go-Lucky Bunch. Correct, correct, correct?
Be your own person.
Be a little selfish.
Be a friend.
Be sincere.
Be gracious
Be yourself
Be open
Be your best self.
That’s a whole swarm of be’s! (Pun intended)
So cute!! What are they? Toys, collectibles?
No clue but A Lil Fat Monkey was muy muy excited when Lyrical Lemongrass brought them back from London… Sure are cute though.
They’re a line of collectible toys made by Kidrobot, called Dunny. Been around sicne 2004 and is into its 6th series now, each designed by a well-known street or graphic artist. I love and adore them! Totally cool stuff.
Check them out there: http://www.kidrobot.com
Kid Robots!! Attack!!!
(No? Not like Transformers, then? Oh well…)
very zen! inspirational words to live by, beautifully written, though personally, i’m much, much less idealistic about life and people. if someone tells me to rest my eyes, i’d shake him and say, open your eyes and stop blinding yourself to reality. =)
What if Reality was just what you perceive?
(Red pill or blue pill, my friend?)
Hehe.
Some very wise and calming words, Kenny! Just what I need to start the week…
You know what I’d really like for Xmas or for the New Year, Yang-May? To pick up even a smidgen of discipline from you, my dear. I can only imagine my output if I could allocate one day out of each week to write, write, write and nothing else. You’re my inspiration, you are.
Whoaaaa… this is really a good post, should keep in mind on the beginning of each week
Each week? Shouldn’t I post something new every week, though? Hahaha. Nah, I get what you mean. Just being dorky here.
ahh..a well deserving time-out with your closest friends
Oh, I need more time-out with you guys but be travelling again this week. Hopefully next weekend I’ll be free to catch up? Keep cool!!
a great beginning to a happyness that comes elusive , like the green mountain dew , as the morning rises so shall the night fall. Still the moments of touchiness is beautiful indeed
… wow.
Wow, wow, wow! Fantastico Kenny Mah! I love em dunny and bff and all you guys at the table. How can one be sad when surrounded with such cute faces and love. Awwww
I’m honoured and a little insulted being featured here though. While I’m happy that my cute face is plastered cutely on your post, there’s a part of me that’s saying “What? This was the post you’ve been struggling to write?” I mean, shouldn’t it BE. easy since it us you’re writing about?!?!?!?! LOL
Hugs bro! Now, that reminds me, when are we going out to bermakan again?
Uhm, it’s always a struggle when writing about such PERFECT friends? (Does this pass? Ahem.)
I’m guess we’ll bermakan soon enough at some party or another but no earlier than next week cos I’m flying in a couple of days to Beijing. Call you and McCutie when I get back, ok?
*hugs!*
Be amazed… at the artistry that you can conjure up… consistently.
Can’t think of anything particular to be! Be sexy?
Haha, now … how do I manage that? I think we are all sexy to some people… isn’t that right?
eeeee!! those lil robots are adorable!! seriously seriously adorable! somehow their ears remind of ‘peace’ signs we make with our fingers, dont you think so?
me likes this be-ing post very much!
Haha, I like the sound of that — “Peace Robots!” Make love, not war…
I love the feel of being happy. Yippe, 20 years of good life, companionship, more thicks than the thins. Yippe, yippe, yippe, skip, hop, jump and dance!
I think that is very important — more thicks than thins — as you put it. I need to remember that. I think we all do.
Thanks for sharing, sir!
Be…. Thankful… Life’s blessings and being surrounded by people you love who knows how to:

For me, have to always remind myself to Be Happy. Be Me. To Just Be.

Those are the three best Be’s, in my opinion.
Merry Christmas, ToyGirl and to ToyBoy too!
Is this hypnosis? Because I was relaxing and closing my eyes.
Ah, well… It’s not actually hypnosis. I’m just really good at putting people to sleep…
