Hi, Welcome to my Den, and I’m Dan. This website is about things I love to do. I love to be near to nature, naturally I also love outdoor activities .... I’m a hiker/trekker, a SCUBA diver, a budget/backpack traveler, a nature type photographer, a net surfer, a 10-pin bowler and an agnostic who does not believe in the existence of any supernatural power, ghost, reincarnation, heaven, hell, spirit or gods and feels a personal duty and obligation to live by a set of principles, standards of conduct and philosophy in hopes of living in peace with fellow human beings The purpose of life is a life of purpose. ~Robert Byrne A life without cause is a life without effect. ~Barbarella Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. ~Leonardo da Vinci So .... my cause, my purpose of life would be: 1. Scuba diving - I wish to dive all the most well known dive sites in South East Asia for now. 2. Photography - Nature, Landscape, Macro and Travel, I love to pick up Street and Abstracts too 3. Backpack traveling to exotic Asian countries - I wish to visit all SEA countries for now especially UNESCO sites 4. Hiking mountains & Trekking forests & Waterfalls - I wish to complete G12(12 tallest mountains in Malaysia) in my lifetime, no rush I feel that life is really short, our time here is limited, and so we should take charge of our own lives, to make full use of our potentials and live life to the fullest. We should not live our lives under the fear of failure, cultural influences, parental and societal expectations, peer pressure, etc. If we do not take charge of our life, then someone else like your boss, friends or even your parents will have a plan for you. And you will probably fall in somebody else’s plan. Remember, you only live once. If Armageddon should come tomorrow; dare to say “I have no regrets, I have lived and done it all” …. are you able to say that today? Quotes I like: - To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries. ~Aldous Huxley - When preparing to travel, lay out all your clothes and all your money. Then take half the clothes and twice the money. ~Susan Heller - The traveler sees what he sees. The tourist sees what he has come to see. ~G.K. Chesterton - A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving. ~Lao Tzu - To travel is to take a journey into yourself. ~Danny Kaye - All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware. ~ Martin Buber - Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights; it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living. ~Miriam Beard - No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow. ~Lin Yutang - It is not down in any map; true places never are. ~Herman Melville - Travelers never think that they are the foreigners. ~Mason Cooley - The purpose of life is a life of purpose. ~Robert Byrne - Maybe all one can do is hope to end up with the right regrets. ~Arthur Miller - Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint on it you can. ~Danny Kaye - Life is like a coin. You can spend it any way you wish, but you only spend it once. ~Lillian Dickson - My formula for living is quite simple. I get up in the morning and I go to bed at night. In between, I occupy myself as best I can. ~Cary Grant - My grandfather always said that living is like licking honey off a thorn. ~Louis Adamic - When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, "I used everything you gave me." ~Erma Bombeck - The difficulties of life are intended to make us better, not bitter. - When you are feeling the worst, that’s when you get to know yourself the best. - A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out - People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridge. - If we are incapable of finding peace in ourselves, it is pointless to seek elsewhere. - The only way to avoid being miserable is not to have enough leisure to wonder whether you are happy or not. - Pleasure in the job puts perfection in the work ~ Aristotle Watch your thoughts, they become words. Watch your words, they become actions. Watch your actions, they become habits. Watch your habits, they become character. Watch your character, for it becomes...your destiny.
