因為你腳踏實地
會敬佩你喜愛你

People have shortcomings. If you are willing to admit your shortcomings and take appropriate action to correct them with an enterprising spirit, no one will look down at you. Instead, they appreciate your efforts, recognize you as a gentleman and respect you with admiration.

做人不應該自大
不自滿和不武斷

接受別人的教導
聽從別人的意見
提昇個人的智慧

No need to be arrogant ***

There is no need to be arrogant. Also you don’t have to be dissatisfied with life’s events and no need to make hasty decisions.

Such opinions will help you improve your knowledge and develop your personal character.

十月三十一日 October 31, 2011

希望之燈 ***

天有不測的風雲
雨過天晴是當然
人生有高峰低谷
只要能相信自已
暗地裡告訴自己
內心有希望之燈
好好去點亮一下
肯定前途是光明

The lamp of hopes ***

There are unanticipated winds and clouds. However when the heavy rain is over, you will see a clear sky. Life is the same. You will have ups and downs. As long as you have confidence in yourself, you can secretly tell yourself that you have a lamp of hopes buried inside you. Light up the lamp and you will see a bright future.

胸懷大志 ***

人人起點可相同
因為個人的思想
加上行為和習慣
選擇不同的決定
終點就大大不同
不要把自己束縛
胸懷大志向前行
為自己創番大事

Have an ambitious goal ***

We all start at the same point but because of individual thought, personal action and habits, people make different choices. Such choices result in different end results. Don’t underestimate yourself but make an ambitious goal for yourself. Work diligently towards it and you will ultimately achieve your goal.

凡是想要得到的
必須要努力爭取

Whatever belongs to you ***

Do not give away whatever belongs to you. Do not forget whatever you had before. Treasure whatever you have achieved. Strive to get whatever you wish for.

甚麼事應要拋開
做了不助長成功
說了也沒有結果
追到了也不實際
憂患了無補於事
所有不務正道的

What can you abandon? ***

From time to time, ask yourself what things you can abandon. These include things that won’t help you succeed in achieving your personal goal, things that don’t lead to any good results and things even though you achieve them but are not practical. Dispose your worries, deeds that violate the law and action that is illegal.

Good advice Part 3
“Don’t Give Up”
Author: Philip Chan

To all patients,
You are in our prayers and
We wish you speedy recovery

美好的一天 *****

壽命長短有誰知
沒人能預料將來
今日不知明日事
何不把今日做好
過一天就活一天
而且要活得完滿
好好與親朋同樂
過個美好的一天

One happy day *****

No one knows how long you are going to live. No one can predict the future. You really don’t know what will happen tomorrow. Why don’t you make good use of today? Live one day at a time and make it a day full of satisfaction. Enjoy the company of your friends and relatives. Make sure you all have a happy day.

新生路 *****

其實人生的路程
多不是平坦順暢
甚至會顛簸崎嶇
而且是困難重重
如果還自怨自憐
忘不了些小傷痛
試問怎能站起來
走出一條新生路

New way out *****

The fact of the matter is that life is never a smooth journey. It has many bumps along the way, and it is common that you have no choice but to face adversity. If you always pity yourself and can’t even accommodate small grievances, how can you stand up and continue your journey? You need to find a new way out.

生老病死 ***

生老病死必經路
無論病情多辛苦
也要努力捱下去
只要生命有一天
定與病魔來作戰
只許成功不準敗
皇天不負有心人
康復日子會快來

Birth, aging, being sick and death ***

Every life includes birth, aging, being sick and death. Regardless how bad your health condition is, you must struggle till the end. As long as you live, you must combat with your illness. You shouldn’t allow any defeat in your battle but only accept victory. Almighty God will not let you down and your days of good health will soon return.

苦盡甘來 *****

人生未必盡是美
不如意事常八九
視病為人生過程
從中努力去奮鬥
將內心中的鬱苦
轉化為成長甘露
滋養出樂觀心態
去達成苦盡甘來

After the bitterness comes the sweetness *****

Life may not necessary be perfect. It is common that 8 or 9 life events out of 10 are unpleasant. Being sick is one of them but you need to struggle to help yourself to fight against your disease. You need to turn your inner bitter feeling into a new strength to help you become positive, and ultimately turn all bitterness into sweetness.

人應有信仰 ***

人人都會有信仰
信仰能加強信心
使你容易去接受
一生的一切苦難
明瞭苦難是過程
而且是因人而異
無須要去人比人
弄到心情變惡劣

Everyone should develop a faith at some point ***

Everyone should develop a faith at some point. Faith can give you strength and confidence to accept Life’s adversities. You will understand adversity is part of life and you shouldn’t compare yourself to others. Such a comparison can only engender a bad mood in you.

人生苦短 ***

人生苦短要盡歡
有病也可以行樂
喜歡種花可種花
喜歡寫作可寫作
喜歡繪畫可繪畫
喜歡彈琴可彈琴
每天抽小小時間
做自己喜歡的事

Life is too short not to enjoy the present ***

Life is too short not to enjoy the present. You must have a good time. Even though you may be sick, you still can do the things you like to do. If you like to garden, plant things. If you like to write, go ahead and write. If you like to draw, draw. If you like to play the piano, practice it every day. Make sure you reserve some time every day to do something you like.

洗耳恭聽 ***

最難應付的時刻
就是病人的怨言
滿口怨恨的態度
句句是憤世嫉俗
此時最好的答話
就是無聲勝有聲
只要肯洗耳恭聽
病者會感覺舒暢

Listen with full attention ***

Dealing with a patient’s complaints is one of the most difficult tasks. When your patient is full of complaints and anger, and utters words of giving up his/her life even though there is hope of recovery, silence is your best response. What you can do is to listen to them with sympathy and they will feel better.

空間 ***

人總要有些空間
給自己小小時間
休息小小也是好
每天抽多少時間
找個安靜的地方
合上眼睛念句經
默默祈求天保佑
保佑病者早痊癒

Your own time ***

Everyone should have some time for themselves. Make good use of this time. Take a rest or take care of your personal affairs. In addition, everyday take some time to find a quiet place and pray to Almighty God wishing for speedy recovery for your patient.

十月二十一日 October 21, 2011

捨己為人***

捨己為人是仁德
能助人解決難題
能助人完成夢想
鼓勵別人去奮鬥
能夠為人謀幸福
而且施恩莫望報
天天慈心去行善
確是高尚的聖人

Helping people is a good character trait ***

Helping people is a good character trait. If you help people to solve their problems, fulfill their dreams, encourage them to move forward to seek their happiness and yet don’t expect anything in return – and in addition -- if you are willing to perform such good deeds daily; you are in fact a noble person.


心安已足夠 ***

想做位仁德的人
其實並不是難事
只要肯去做好事
便覺得心安理得
雖然沒有人稱讚
並不代表不仁德
不計別人怎樣看
自己心安已足夠

Being at ease is good enough ***

It isn’t difficult to be a good person with exemplary moral values. As long as you are willing to perform good deeds, you will feel at peace, even if no one may praise you for doing it. Absence of such praise doesn’t mean you lack good morals. You shouldn’t care how people look at you as long as you feel peaceful. That’s good enough.

十月二十日 October 20, 2011

猶豫不決 ***

猶豫不決的性格
辦事多畏首畏尾
雖然思考深是好
但是過份的疑心
躊躇不肯行一步
往往會錯失良機
本來是可以成功
也變成敗事有餘

Being indecisive ***

Being indecisive won’t help you deliver anything. Although deep thinking may be good, being excessive suspicious makes you hesitate to take the first step. Because of this, you may miss a golden opportunity. You could have a chance to succeed but you mess it up and end up achieving nothing.

不要取到盡 ***

責人不必要苛盡
留些後路大家好
鋒芒不必要露盡
免得會惹來後患
有功不必要邀盡
大家同樂有後福
得寵不必要持盡
世上沒永恆不變

Don’t take it all ***

Don’t force people into a corner from which they cannot escape. Always leave room for negotiation. Don’t show off all you have, otherwise you may get yourself into trouble. Don’t claim all the credits but share them with people. Don’t take advantage to the fullest. You can’t be lucky at all times.

與家人和解 ***

最好趁有些精神
多與家人來相聚
對有誤會的事情
不再埋藏在心底
盡量傾訴來和解
互相寬容忘舊恨
大家拾回平安心
安安樂樂活下去


Reconcile with your family members ***

Take advantage while you still have spirits and get together with your family members. If you have any misunderstanding with them, don’t bury them inside you but discuss them with your family members and reconcile any misunderstanding. Forgive each other a little and let go of the misunderstanding. Everyone moves on living peacefully together.

齊齊看照片 ***

家人一同看照片
也該是一種情趣
看看往日的日子
定有快樂好時光
拍拖照片是甜蜜
生日慶祝是成長
旅遊放假是娛樂
昇職發財是成果

Look at family pictures together with your family ***

It is a pleasure to look at family pictures together with your family. Those pictures will remind you of the happy days in the past. Looking at pictures of the time you were courting will remind you of that sweet time. Birthday pictures tell you that you’ve grown. Vacation pictures remind you of the happy times together. Promotion celebration pictures remind you of your past achievements.

你可以選擇擔憂
擔憂只加重負荷
對身體全無好處
反而會破壞心情
連累到你的家人
人人為你而擔憂
一家人苦口苦臉
這樣做人又何苦

Why bother to put on a sad face? ***

You may choose to be worried. Being worried only aggravates the load on yourself. It doesn’t do your body any good but destroys your mood. Your mood may affect every family member of yours and make them worried about you. As a result, the whole family will have a sad face. Why do you bother to wear a sad face?

酸甜苦辣***

人生渾是戲一場
榮華終是三更夢
富貴還是九月霜
世事由來多變幻
生老病死誰能替
酸甜苦辣自承擔
隨遇而安最上算
始終會有好日子

Ups and downs in life ***

Life is like a play. It has its ups and downs. Fame is like a dream. Wealth can be like the frost in September. Life is full of unanticipated changes. No one can go through your life’s journey in your place of birth, aging, being sick and death. Only you can understand how you feel, and how you deal with your ups and downs. The best way is to take it easy and you will have auspicious days ahead of you.

What can you control? It is neither the past nor the future. It is this very moment. If you miss this moment, it will be in the past. Why don’t you make good use of this moment? Do something meaningful for yourself.


還等甚麼 ***

面對的只是今天
有甚麽應該去做
有甚麽是想去做
又還沒去做的事
現在就應該去做
如果真的想去做
還在等待到何時
今天就開始去做

What are you waiting for? ***

What can you do today? If you have something that you want to do, that should be done and you haven’t done it yet, go ahead and do it now. If you really want it to be done, what are you waiting for? Start doing it today.

十月十四日 October 14, 2011

無須追名利 ***


無須過份為名利
弄到精神太緊張
人生重要的基本
就是快樂和健康
名利始終身外物
不會永遠在身旁
無須搏命追名利
最多只是幾十載

No need to pursue fame and fortune excessively ***

There is no need to pursue fame and fortune excessively, otherwise you will feel totally exhausted. What is more important is your health and happiness. After all, fame and fortune are not part of your body and they will not be attached to you forever. There is definitely no need to pursue them excessively. The most you can owe them is about several dozens of years in your lifetime.

知識有限度 ***

一山還有一山高
做人要禮義謙虛
不應該目中無人
一點禮貌都全無
人的知識有限度
處事難免會糊塗
不留餘地的態度
到頭來自討沒趣

Everyone’s knowledge has a limit ***

Remember there is always a higher mountain. You need to be polite and modest. You shouldn’t look down on everyone. Also you shouldn’t be impolite to people. Everybody’s knowledge has a limit. Unavoidably there may be times when matters are muddled. Whatever you do, you should always leave some room for negotiation otherwise, and you end up looking foolish.

沒精打釆 ***

有時會沒精打釆
總覺時間過得慢
任何事不感興趣
辦事會碰釘犯錯
如此情況宜休假
最好抽空見老友
吹水聊天過一天
心情定可以轉好

Dispirited ***

Sometimes you may feel dispirited and you will find that time goes slowly. You lose interest in doing anything. Even if you try to do something, you seem to bump into many obstacles. In such a situation, it is better to take a leave of absence. Spend some time with friends and joke about the good old days. You may transform your unease into something exciting for you.

工作的繁瑣 ***

日常工作的繁瑣
纏繞的事不會少
長命工夫長命做
週末是個人空間
定要把公事放下
保持開朗的態度
好好與家人聊天
他們會更需要你

Tedious routine work ***

Everyone has a lot of tedious routine work. It seems like it never ends. Don’t worry. Just take your time to get through with it. But make sure you save your weekends for yourself. Don’t work on tedious stuff over the weekend. Maintain a positive attitude and spend some time with your family. They definitely need you the most over the weekends.

安心過一生 ***

個人的福禍壽夭
又有誰人能預料
既然如此莫須憂
只求對得住自己
本著良心去做人
能做到問心無愧
止惡行善過日子
便可安心過一生

Live peacefully ***

No one knows whether you are going to have either a long and rich or a short and poor life. If this is the case, why worry about life? As long as you have a good conscience and never do anything that is injurious to others, you shouldn’t have any regrets in your life. Don’t do any things that are injurious to others, but be a good person who performs good deeds everyday. Doing this will help assure that you will have a peaceful life.

找出條活路 ***

每人一生的際遇
無論逆境或順境
都有正面的意義
只要你能夠明瞭
凡事都會有兩面
如肯換一種眼光
改變評價的標準
可找出一條活路

Discover a way out ***

Everything in life has a bright side regardless whether there are adverse circumstances or favorable circumstances. If you accept that everything has two sides, and are willing to maintain a flexible attitude, and are prepared to change your standard of measurement, you will discover a way out even if you think you are at a dead end road.

No need to feel guilty ***

Don’t look back but look forward. Being sick doesn’t mean you have done something wrong and you are a criminal. You may blame yourself for lack of doing exercises but don’t forget even athletes get sick too. Also children can be afflicted with cancer. What crime have they done? So don’t feel guilty but be strong and move on.

希望 ***

面對病魔的作戰
如果感覺到憂慮
要對自己說一聲
將來應該是希望
而不應該是憂慮
憂慮是醫生責任
希望是病人擁有
希望永遠在人間

Hope ***

When you feel anxious about combating your illness, just remind yourself that “Worries belong to the past and hope is your future.” Let your doctor take care of your worries and you keep your hope. Remember hope is everywhere in this world.

Cancer ***

The word cancer scares people to death. When a patient first hears of the word cancer, he/she wants to cry but has no tears. Such news is shattering and makes him/her speechless. It is understandable that he/she feels like being on a dead end road. Subsequently he/she feels he/she is responsible for the cause of the disease and tears flow unchecked. No one can really understand this stress or know how to offer comfort.

奇蹟 ***

奇蹟事件會出現
做人無須太憂心
只要保持積極心
有病定要苦心醫
雖然藥苦也要吃
所謂吃得苦中苦
藥到回春身體好
始終會有好日子

Miracle ***

Miracles occur every day. Therefore there is no need to be overly worried. All you have to do is to keep a positive attitude and take care of your health. Take the prescribed medicines although you may not want to, even if they may be difficult to swallow. Although it is a hardship, medicine is good for you. Medicine will rejuvenate your body and your days of good health will soon return.

十月七日 October 7, 2011

全部攬上身 ***

如果將所有工作
全部一一攬上身
就算你是個超人
不可能應付若如
很可能適得其反
此時最好的方法
去找個合作夥伴
為你來分擔工作

Don’t take on all of the work ***

Even if you are a superman, you can’t do all the work on your own. It is impossible that you can do it all. On the contrary, because of the workload, you may make a mess out of it. The best way to handle all the work is to split the workload among people. Find a capable partner, to work with you, and both of you will then be able to deliver the job on time.

分工合作 ***

能分些工作給人
大家來分工合作
你會活得輕鬆些
心情也會愉快些
辦事會事半功倍
何必定要攬上身
就算公司沒有你
公司一樣會運作

Division of labor and cooperation ***

If you are willing to share your workload with others and cooperate with them to work as a team, your work life will be less stressful. You may even be in a happy mood and can produce twice the amount of work with the same amount of effort. There is no benefit in doing all the work on your own. Just think, even if you leave your job, your company will still be able to survive without you.

三笑 ***

見仁見智有三笑
微笑狂笑和苦笑
小時有吃會微笑
青年得意會狂笑
老來無伴會苦笑
除此三笑沒他笑
但狂笑可轉微笑
苦笑只有自己知

Three different kinds of smile ***

Different people may have different views on how many different kinds of smile there are in one’s life. When you are a child, you may like to open your mouth and smile. When you become a youngster, you laugh loudly. When you are old, you sometimes have a bitter smile. These are the three different kinds of smile at different stages of your life. But, a big laughter can turn back to become a sweet smile. Only a bitter smile remains inside you and only you know what is happening in your life.

憂愁 ***

問君能有幾多愁
借酒消愁愁更愁
酒入愁腸未解愁
愁根未除總會愁
萬種憂心百種愁
做人何必太憂愁
何不試放下憂愁
享樂此刻無憂愁

Sadness ***

How much sadness do you experience? How many times have you been drunk thinking that you can overcome your sadness by excessive drinking? Actually drinking doesn’t help remove your sadness. If you haven’t solved the root cause of your sadness, drinking can only make you sadder. Why do you worry and become sad? Why don’t you forget the things that make you sad and enjoy something else at this very moment?

Good advice Part 3
“Don’t Give Up”
Author: Philip Chan

To all patients,
You are in our prayers and
We wish you speedy recovery


You will leave your pain behind ***

Life is ever-changing. Don’t be angry because you are sick. Being angry will affect the condition of your health. In reality, being angry means being afraid to face reality. It doesn’t do yourself any good. Why don’t you change your attitude and maintain an optimistic view to handle your illness? This way, you will be able to leave your pain behind.

打場勝仗 ***

不做病魔的奴隸
不做病魔的僕人
要做自己的主人
不受病魔的主宰
不由病魔來支配
要自己掌握命運
保持樂觀的心態
為自己打勝場仗

You must win the battle ***

Don’t be a slave to your illness. Don’t be the servant of your illness but be the master of your own self. Don’t allow your illness to master your life and control how you live your life. You must control your own destiny. Be positive and fight for your life. You ultimately will be a victor and win your battle.

叫苦連天 ***

叫苦連天的日子
好多時像吃黄蓮
苦不堪言的滋味
試問會有誰會知
錦上添花人會多
雪中送炭有幾人
最好自己來安慰
快快樂樂過日子

Good advice Part 3 “Don’t Give Up”
Author: Philip Chan

To all patients,
You are in our prayers and
We wish you speedy recovery


The temptation to complain ***

Continuously suffering pain day by day either physically or psychologically is like eating the rhizome of Chinese goldthread. The bitter taste is beyond description. No one can understand what you are going through under these circumstances. Actually there aren’t many people in this world who are willing to deliver charcoal to keep people warm; but there are many people who are delighted to deliver flowers to celebrate people’s promotions. What you really should do is to make sure you have a positive attitude and be at ease in handling your current difficult time.

掌握命運 ***

人生有悲歡離合
月也有陰晴圓缺
風也有強悍微弱
海水也有起有落
生活也都有順逆
逆境最需要積極
把命運握在手中
自己去選擇結果


You control your own destiny ***

People have gatherings and separations. A moon can be half or full. The wind can be strong or weak. The sea can be calm or have big waves. Life has its ups and downs. When faced with adversity, you must be positive. As long as you are in control of your own destiny, you can choose the result of your destiny.

Good advice Part 3 “Don’t Give Up”
Author: Philip Chan

To all patients,
You are in our prayers and
We wish you speedy recovery

打死你為止 ***

也文也武的病魔
打極唔死乞人憎
終須有日打死你
莫灰心不要放棄
努力抵抗鬥到底
只準成功不準敗
皇天不負有心人
始終打死你為止

Some day I will eliminate you ***

It is extremely annoying that I can’t eliminate my illness by now. Some day I will eliminate it. I will not despair and will not give up. I will continue to do everything possible to fight against my illness. I will not accept any failure but only permit success. I have confidence that Almighty God will not let me down and ultimately I will beat my illness into submission.

打倒病魔 ***

只要能夠活一天
就有一天的力量
不停對自己説聲
要和病魔來糾纏
一定要打倒病魔
今日未必會成功
明天再來打一次
終須有日會成功

Conquer your sickness ***

As long as you can live for one day, you have one day worth of strength. You should tell yourself that you will do everything you can to conquer your illness. If you cannot conquer it today, tomorrow you will continue to do the same. Ultimately you will conquer your illness.
