Yes, you are right. I am still in holiday now (see my last post on 8 Dec 2023).
I have no internet access. I deliberately cut off myself from the internet work. I have told my bosses / co-workers that I am not subscribing to roaming, hence won’t have any access 🙂
Does the picture below look familiar to you? I bet it happened to your family every day!
I am following my own previous advice in this article:
I strongly urge you to read it!
Ditch your mobile phone to build real life
Phone Phone Phone
The photo above shows that we’re so obsessed with our phones that we can’t even go to the bathroom without them / can’t even have a proper meal with your loves one. We’re not just talking about checking your phone every five minutes or playing Candy Crush on the toilet — we’re talking about actually interact and taking to one another over a simple meal only.
This isn’t just a trend in Singapore it’s happening all over the world, and it’s not just affecting adults. Kids are spending more time with their phones than ever before, and they’re developing social skills that are less than ideal. We’ve seen a lot of articles about this problem already, but here’s our take on the negative effects of hoarding to your phones and how you can ditch your phone in order to build real relationships in real life.
Then how I post this article without internet?
It is definitely not magic like the above picture! I am not Dr Strange!
This is a scheduled post. I wrote in on the morning of 2 December 2023 while the rest of the family members are still sleeping!

Money just buy you the chance of freedom but can’t buy back time. In life, there is no reset button. Time is limited but money is not.
When you are young and working, you exchange time for money. When you are old, you can have lots of money but you can’t buy time back, especially the things that you have missed (your strong health, time with young child) while busying striking out in career.
Your kids grew up and they no longer need you to accompany them. They no longer want to sit on your lap to share/do things with you…all these time you spent in your 9 to 6 or even longer cubicles…can the money that you have earned by you back these?
We always thought we have more time with our old parents, but we are wrong. Time with them is ticking away every day. One day it will suddenly be gone. There is no regret medicine, no reset in time. Gone is gone and cannot come back. No matter you are billionaires or millionaires, you cannot reset this.
We always thought that we have more time with our spouse every day, but we are wrong. One day they will be gone too. When you read this, please go tell your spouse that you love him/her and he or she is the best thing that you ever had in your life.
Love your life daily. You have one less day with your spouse, parents, children and yourself. Time is ticking away.
