Home Alone.

It was so empty. No sound of my wifey screaming at me and my daughters. No sound of my daughters screaming, crying and fighting with the maid.

The house was so quiet until I can hear the housefly passby.

When there is no time for you to rest, all you hope for is 1 or 2 hour of solid sleep.

But now, I can have all the time I want.

But I'm not happy!!!~~~

In Support of Fight Against Child Abuse.

Came across this blog, very meaningful indeed. Please if you got time, please pay a visit to this blog.

In our times of darkness, children are the ones who will brighten us up. No matter what ordeals we have to endure in our daily lives, we know that we can overcome them the moment we set eyes on children. Their innocence and purity in them will always give us a sense of peacefulness and calm that is beyond words. And it goes without saying that life would be meaningless without seeing them smile, hearing them laugh and cry, and feeling their small and flawlessly gentle hands that want to reach out to us.

Yet, there are some who show no empathy and sensitivity towards these beautiful souls. Worse still, they would dunk themselves into physical violence and cruelty towards the children without even thinking twice. Such acts can deem someone to be worse than an animal, because even an animal has compassion and love for its young.

What do you really hope to achieve in life?

There was once a businessman who was sitting by the beach in a small village. As he sat, he saw a fisherman rowing a small boat towards the shore and noticed that the fisherman has caught a quite number of big fishes that is known to be a delicacy.

The business was really impressed and ask the fisherman, "How long does it take you to catch so many fishes?"

The fisherman reply; "Oh, just a short while."

"Then why don't you stay longer at sea and you could catch even more? The businessman was astonished.

The fisherman simply does not agree, "This is enough to feed my whole family?" he says.

The businessman then asked: "So, what do you do for the rest of the day then?"

The fisherman reply; "Well, I usually wake up early in the morning, go out to sea and catch a few fishes, then I would go back and play with my kids. In the afternoon, I will take a nap with my wife, and evening comes, I will join my buddies in the village for a drink, we played guitar, sing and dance throughout the night. My day was ever so complete and carefree."

The businessman does not agree with his way of life and offered a suggestion to the fisherman.

"I am a PhD holder graduated from Harvard University, specialises in business management. I could help you to become a more successful person. From now on, you have to spend more time at sea and try to catch as many fishes as possible. And when you have save enough money, you could buy a bigger boat and catch even more fishes. As you go on, you will be able to afford to buy more boats, recruit more fishermen and lead a team of your own. Soon you will be able to set-up your own company, your very own production plant for canned food and do direct selling to your distributors.At that time, you will have moved out of this village to city, and then expand your operation to a bigger city, where you can set-up your HQ to manage all your other branches."

The fisherman asks, "So, how long would that take? "

The businessman reply: "About 15 to 20 years"

The fisherman continued, "And after that?"

The businessman laugh heartily, "After that, you can live like a king in your own house, and when the time is right, you can go public and float your shares in the Stock Exchange, by then you will be rich, your income will be coming in by the millions!!"

The fisherman ask, "And after that?"

The businessman says "After that, you can finally retire, you can move to a house by the fishing village, wake up early in the morning and catch a few fishes, then return home to play with the kids, have a nice afternoon nap with your wife, and when evening comes, you can join your buddies for a drink, play the guitar, sing and dance throughout the night!! "

The fisherman was puzzled, "Isn't that what I am doing now??"

So, what does one really hope to achieve in life, do we really need to work so hard in life ? What do you hope to accomplish in the end??? There are sometimes things are much more simpler than what we thought of right???

Well, my dear readers......... what are we actually aiming for in our life??? Do we really have the answer for our own questions???

Weird!!!

I just don't understand why some people are so stubborn and don't want to listen to others people advise. Why must they think in a way that they are always right??? What makes them to think so??? Is it real that when once you have this kind of mind set in your head, and when you grew older with it, you will never ever gonna change the way you think anymore??? What if you have been wrong all the way......... What if you and your attitude always hurting someone else??? Don't you feel regret and sorry for what you have done in the past??? You tell me lah.........

Do you know how it feels when a person is offering something, or maybe planning or doing something that didn't hope for any kind of return, being rejected without any reasons??? It really hurts I can assure you this.........

Just like the other day, my wife and I went out with a couple of our old 'kakis' for a glass or two. It was a wonderful time, where we all were sober, chatting and laughing. Beer free flowing, chicken wings and ciggies......... you can imagine that. Out of sudden, one of our 'kaki' ( Mr A )mentioned something about his car problem, just to share abit of his problem with us. There is this guy ( Mr B ) who always have the last word in every single conversation voiced out his opinion regarding his car's problem. And by the way he talk, he seems to be like very specialist in this field 'padahal' he is totally know nuts about it!!!!!!!!!! And there goes off some kinda small arguement between 2 of them, cause what Mr B said to Mr A, Mr A already get it check and done by a mechanic. And Mr B die die also said that that mech is wrong!!!

I just don't understand why can't Mr B try to accept what Mr A said and try not to be the "I KNOW EVERYTHING" kind of person. Why can't you sit down quietly and listen to what others have to say??? Sometimes really don't understand these people, why they are so ego, stubborn and reject others help and advice without thinking much. Sometimes I do thought of really fark these jerks upside down!!! But hey, what for man. Since they are so smart and they think that what is in their mind is correct, what for I need to go and waste my time and energy talking to these people right.........

Hmm...... WTF, no give damn man!!! PEACE!!!

My Wife's Cleaniness Attitude.

As usuall, I reached home after my work today, rushing to the toilet cause my water tank is high level. Upon seeing the nice view of the toilet bowl, without wasting much time I emptied my water tank.................... *phew* what a relieve......... You know lah, traveling from my work place back to home requires about 45 minutes and after some teh tarik sessions, how can you not expect the water tank to full, right...

While I'm cleaning up the mess that I've made, sudden I saw the red colour small little pail that my daughter used to play while she baths, placed nicely at the corner of the bathroom, fill with water and there is alot of all these tiny winny kind of button, all black in colour and it have alot of numbers and alphabets on it. In my heart I said to myself...... "What have mummy bought for the lil one today??? So cute and nice" On a second glance, these cute little button looks very familiar, and I get closer and try to have a better view and SHIT!!! That looks like the keyboard buttons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I quickly rush out to look for my desktop, I mean my desktop's keyboard and there I saw my wife sitting on a nice cozy chair, in her hand t here is a white dam towel, wipping the pc.

Me : What are you doing???

PW : I'm cleaning the pc loh. Look at all these dusts and hair that you have collected.

Me : But how you clean it???

PW : Using a cloth loh, wiping.........

Me : And what is the pail of buttons in the bathroom???

PW : Ohhhhhhhh, that one arr. That one is the keyboard button loh. I dismantel everything

mah. As you can see, there are so many dusts between all the buttons.........

Me : * peng 9 san edi *

There goes the whole 2 hours trying to assemble back the keyboard, which I manage to do, but in the end, more than half the button is not functioning well. Well, there goes the keyboard to my daughter, another toy for her to play. Went out after dinner to get a new keyboard... And guess what my wife told me..........

PW : There, if I didn't do some cleaning, you won't be ending up with another new keyboard

which is much more better than the old one, and our daughter won't be able to have her

own keyboard. ( smiling at me with her innocent face ).................

Free Burma

I'm abit late.........

What Will You Choose???

You are driving your 2 seaters sport car along a straight road on a wild stormy night!!! And it's raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a bus stop and there you see 3 people waiting for a bus...

You slow down your car, try to get a better look at them......... and there is this old lady who looks as if she is about to die, and your good old buddy of yours who once saved your life and a perfect partner that you have been dreaming for...

Which one do you choose to offer a ride, knowing very well that there could only be one passenger in your car???

You could pick up the old lady, cause she is sick and thus you can send her to the hospital, thus saving her life, or maybe you could take your old friend cause he once saved your life and now is the perfect time to repay him back the favour, or maybe you can pick up the perfect partner that you have been dreaming for and do have a lovely life after that.

Which one do you choose???

You want the answer, please scroll down lah.............

Well, the best answer to this kinda situations sounds like this...

Give your car key to your old buddy and let him send the old lady to the hospital. And you to stay behind at the bus stop with your perfect partner to wait for the next available bus to arrive.

Sometimes, we gain more if we, ourself are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations.
And the moral of the story is........................................ you have your say... ok???

Got this from a good friend of mine, Thanks yah... Very meaningful indeed............. ;)
