Opening Address

Lisa Ooi, the Club President, shared with us a little story about a young monk who built a wall on the land that he was given. A brick, a dollop of cement and another brick - the young monk diligently ensured that the bricks were laid evenly when building the wall. After the wall was completed, he noticed that two bricks were out of alignment. He felt ashamed of those two “bad bricks”. Whenever there were visitors passing the wall, he would hurry them past. One day, there was a guest who noticed the wall. To the young monk’s amazement, the guest told him that it was a beautiful wall. Didn’t he see the two “bad bricks”? The guest replied, “Yes, I saw the two bricks. However, the rest (98%) of the bricks make a beautiful wall.” The young man realized how foolish he had been to have focused on the 2% “bad bricks” instead of the 98% - the beautiful wall. Through this story, Lisa reminded us to always focus on and appreciate the 98% “good bricks” (good qualities) in ourselves, our loved ones, friends and people around us instead of the 2% “bad bricks” (shortcomings).
