Is This Karma?

Young, innocent Jack saw a bird nest with a few baby birds on top of a small tree. Jack felt something interesting about this scenario. He ran up and shook the tree.

It was such an impotent tree. It shook vigorously when Jack pushed the tiny trunk. The nest fell with all the baby birds tweeting in shock.

Jack felt satisfied for a moment. Then he felt bad as if he is the one who fell from the tree far a way from his parents. He would have horrified to dead.

So, Jack picked up the baby birds and put them back in to the nest. He then climbed up the tree, tried to place the nest back.

It was such a tiny tree and it broke when Jack was on top of it. Both Jack and baby birds fell back to the ground again. Only this time, Jack will be paralyzed for a very long time.

What If You Are Wrong?

Why people like to put their own understanding upon things they don’t understand so that they can assume they understood?

Is it caused by fear? They fear the things they cannot understand?

Or is it power?

When more people believe the assumption they thought they understood, they gain power. The power grew stronger day by day until someday someone holds a concrete proof that they are wrong for thousands of years. What do you think will happen?

They fought hard, just to proof that they have been right. Until one day many innocence sacrifice, then maybe they will realize all this is unnecessary, all they have to do is to admit their mistake and change their mind.

Or worst, they fought hard just to make sure their power remains, this includes the sacrificial of many innocence.

Is these the reasons why people against CERN from finding out Higgs Particle?

海角七号----3

昨晚和女友在戏院看了海角七号。昨晚正是圣诞节的结尾，‘国境之南’和‘野玫瑰’做为今年的圣诞节句号，正是再浪漫不过了。

可惜戏院里只有两排人潮。

我恨不得把马来西亚的华人都拐进戏院来，告诉片商这是华人爱看的影片，而不是那些由头打到尾，或者男主角厉害得不知该怎么结尾，只有草草结局把观众赶出场；又或者满口废话，看了和没看没有分别的电影。这部片我不知看了几遍。出发点倒有点骗心，不是支持好电影，而是支持好的华人电影。

The Innocent Deed

An innocent young boy, jack, saw a bird nest on a tree. He thought it will be fun to mess it out. So, he pick up a half-broken brick and threw it to the nest. He threw it many times until it actually hit the nest down. The brick was stuck between branches and the nest drop with all the eggs crash.

Jack walked away, satisfy.

One day, Jack walked pass the tree. A wind brew and the branch waver. The brick where Jack threw on to the tree droped on Jack's head.

Jack was then sent to the hospital and is prescribed a brain damage.

Jack's parent get mad and decided to chop that tree down. And then the environmentalist is against the act and both parties created conflicts...

The story may not be true but this is my understanding of what goes around, comes around.

After the circle of deeds is over, more conflicts appeared from no where. Don't you think all evil in the world started like this?

Why is Working Life Sucks?

The Matrix is right. Human will be satisfy and feel the illusion of freedom as long as they are given a choice.

What is the difference between staying at home doing whatever you like and go to work like a dog to earn that few penny? The first has the freedom to choose whatever they like to do; the latter does not have a choice but just to complete the work.

Being at home doing nothing or having a whole day free allows us to make choices on what we like to do today. Go to work means working to complete today's tasks without any other option.

That is why people say working life sucks. It is just the illusion of having choices or not.

The Smart-arse Company

There is a smart-arse living in a company my friend works in.

When the founder of the company past away, that smart-arse workhard to show the next boss that he is good. He work so hard that he knows everything in the company leaving behind the next boss, which is the blur-case son of deceased founder.

As time goes by, the new boss getting blurer and blurer that he became dependent to that smart-arse.

One day, that smart-arse threathen the boss that he is leaving the company and there will be no one knows how to run it. The only way to stop this from is to resign and pass over the company to the smart-arse.

The boss believe that threat and resign. He do not want to destroy the company his father built.

Now, that smart-arse, which is from an executive management background, hire a few manager with the same background to run the company with him.

None of them knows nothing about sales, marketing, and branding and obviously the sales went jumping down the window. It do not need a good brain to tell why the sales are so bad.

The smart-arse and his team now blaim the lorry driver for not marketing the product well.

Aren't this a smart-arse company?

Sincerity

According to Meriam-Webster, sincere means free of dissimulation,free from adulteration, marked by genuineness.

I think there is a special connection between human, especially in sincerity:

When we write sincerly, people read.

When we talk sincerly, people listen.

When we do sincerly, people follow.

When we sale sincerly, people buy.

When we are sincere, people feel it.

It is just so simple but many could not do it. They find it hard to be sincere to others. They afraid that people might heard their weak unsincere heart.

啊！彩虹。

看了电影《海角七号》第三次，还是觉得浪漫感动。华人好久没出产这么好的电影了。

如果哪位日本教师当初勇敢地留下来，那么就没有了那封最美丽的思念（信）。那么就没有这个浪漫感人的故事了。

彩虹总是在雨后才出现……美好的事情总是在困境中显露……

我们又为什么如此在意自己的弱点、别人的弱点呢？

不如尽力做好自己的本分，问心无愧就好？柳暗花明有一春。雨后也许会有彩虹……

你不期待彩虹吗？

Values

A bowl of rice costs 50 cents and another exactly same bowl costs 1 dollar. Which will you buy?

My colleague will tell you they will buy the 50 cents rice but they will go to the fancy restaurant and pay a dollar plus for that rice, when they are hungry. They thought rich people eats there and they are rich enough after all the hard work they have done in the office.

When asked about rich people and money, it seems that everyone knows their history and the way they become rich. But I bet none of them understand it. The rich people are either obsess in their work that they just grab whatever they have in the corner to fill their stomach; or safe every penny to invest in the cheapest stock they can find with the highest value.

I did not see any of these attitudes in them. Those made me wonder where they will be 20 years from now. Are they lost?

闷？

下班了，许多同事都没立刻回家。起初还以为他们只是想在老板面前装勤劳，后来就知道原来完全不是。 他们说回家也是一个人，无所事事的，倒不如多留在公司。

我在想，上班族当真有这么闷吗？我正在嫌时间不够用，他们竟然说回家无所事事？

我的电脑里面有几出没时间看的电影、有许多杂志上介绍的歌还没去找出来听、戏院有几出想看的电影没来得及看就要落映了、上个礼拜的杂志还没读完这个礼拜的已经来了、部落隔许久没有上新文章了、facebook新加了朋友还没来得及去看、许多最新的投资消息、新小说、新闻、艺术、新发明等……

有没有发现到我还没加上陪女朋友和好朋友喝茶的时间？还有我个人spiritual的空间呢？

我根本不了解什么是无所事事和寂寞。

Protagonist’s Weaknesses

Have you ever wonder why we like to watch movie?

I think that’s because we like to think things that we cannot achieve, at least at the moment when we watch a movie.

We all know that it is our weaknesses that make each of our life unique. But did you realize that it is the weakness of the protagonist in a movie that makes the movie interesting? The more weaknesses the protagonist has, the better the movie will be.

I can see many people try to run away from their weakness. If they hope for a regular life, they might be heading the right direction. What about those running away from their weaknesses but try so hard to live above the average?

My Life at the Moment

It had been raining for at least 13 hours here in Kuala Lumpur. It had been a long time since I have the time to fill my life with music, music and nothing but music.

Everybody Loves Irene, an Indonesian band, is what I like most. I have listened to it like a thousand times but it still caught me into its “Hybrid Moment”.

Next is the theme song from Studio Ghibli’s, Tales from Earthsea. Although I haven’t watched the show, I can feel a deep desire of peace in it, like humans have been fighting for hundred years, only to try to prove that they are correct.

Then I realize that I have not share my life, like what I like and what I do on the blog with all readers of my blog. I apologize on that. I am a simple man with simple need. I only read, blog, listen to songs and watch movies during free time.

Realize that it is cheap? Yeah, as said by Forrest Gump’s Mother, “People only need a small amount of money to live. The others are for showing off.” But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t save money and invest for our future’s sake.

我是对的

人，为什么总是觉得自己是对的呢？

如果向别人证明了自己是对了的话，心里会有一种欣慰和兴奋，还有被压抑着的骄傲。

我对了，我不必改。你错了，你要改。

最重要的是，大家会觉得我很厉害，因为我说对了，我点醒了大家，就好像上帝唤醒了人类般光荣。大家好像很崇拜我似的，至少在那一刹那间。

但，这是光荣吗？为什么光荣的背后藏着一股脱险的感觉？

这种脱险的感觉就好像一刀捅死了那位即将把我那不可告人的秘密报穿的那个人，幸亏我先他一步把他打死，我才有现在的光荣。

我该享受这种光荣吗？为什么我这么享受？

Is this the Other Dimension?

As we all know that we connect to this world through our six senses:

1. Eye- receive frequency between 4.28 x 10¹⁴ Hz and 7.14 x 10¹⁴ Hz

2. Ear- receive frequency between frequency between 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz

3. Nose- receive infinite number of distinct smell

4. Skin- receive pressure and heat

5. Tongue- receive sour and salty through ion channels while receive sweet, bitter, and umami through G protein coupled receptors

6. Others extra

What if our senses is not the above but had shifted to the below:

1. Eye- receive frequency between 7.14 x 10¹⁴ Hz and 1.28 x 10¹⁵ Hz

2. Ear- receive frequency between 21,000 Hz and 100,000 Hz

3. Nose- receive infinite no of distinct smell

4. Skin- receive pressure between 10^-5 Pa (light pressure) and 6 x 10⁻⁴ Pa (calm room sound pressure)

5. Tongue- receive any other tastes but sour, salty, sweet, bitter, and umami

6. Others extra

What world will we be in? Will we be still in the same place and the same time? We do not interact because all frequencies are different? Are those living in that world experiencing the same time and share the same space with us but we cannot see, hear, smell and touch them because our frequencies are so different? Just like the radio wave where you turn different frequencies to listen to different radio channel.

What will that world look like?

Purpose of Life

If you were given a chance to change something in the world, what will you change?

Before you answer this question, read carefully. The answer will determine your future, at least until you change your answer.

I'd read an article from Forbes website that entrepreneurs change things, they do not follow business that everyone does. Entrepreneurs are the group that do what they feel they can change.

Actually I do not think this answer should be answer by entrepreneurs or to-be-entrepreneurs only. I think every one should give a really deep thought in it. It will give a person the purpose of life.

Read this page http://alphane2300.blogspot.com/2008/11/time-life.html... realize how much time we have left in life and what is the purpose so far. Then answer my question above. Some of you might thought of giving up. But I think giving up is another way of suicide. What is the difference between giving up your life and giving up the purpose of your life?

Doubts

Do you believe in:

Deep doubts, deep wisdom; small doubts, little wisdom.

?

If yes, read on; if no, stop reading because you won't get anything from this post.

Do your religious leader encourage you to be in doubts?

Why?

You tell me that.

了解

曾经读过有个和尚说，想得到“他心通”这种可以看见人心里在想什么的功力，不必去求师求道，苦修行善，只需打开自己的心给别人看，别人自然便会打开他们的心了。那不就是通了吗？

可是你有没有式式把自己的心门打开，但却没有人肯进来了解？

因为他们担心他们从此变了。

你可又有没有见人家把心门打开了，你却无论如何不肯进去了解？

因为你担心你从此变了。

The Butterfly Effect

An early pioneer of the theory was Edward Lorenz whose interest in chaos came about accidentally through his work on weather prediction in 1961.[14] Lorenz was using a simple digital computer, a Royal McBee LGP-30, to run his weather simulation. He wanted to see a sequence of data again and to save time he started the simulation in the middle of its course. He was able to do this by entering a printout of the data corresponding to conditions in the middle of his simulation which he had calculated last time.

To his surprise the weather that the machine began to predict was completely different from the weather calculated before. Lorenz tracked this down to the computer printout. The computer worked with 6-digit precision, but the printout rounded variables off to a 3-digit number, so a value like 0.506127 was printed as 0.506. This difference is tiny and the consensus at the time would have been that it should have had practically no effect. However Lorenz had discovered that small changes in initial conditions produced large changes in the long-term outcome.[15] Lorenz's discovery, which gave its name to Lorenz attractors, proved that meteorology could not reasonably predict weather beyond a weekly period (at most).

The above is taken from wikipedia.

The Butterfly Effect is the same theory we use to explain the reason why we cannot return to the same presence if we ever travel to the past. We might trigger something as minor as a butterfly's flap and cause a vast change to the time we come from.

If you believe in this theory, imagine how much you can change the future.

If you believe in god, tell me if god make this on a purpose or is it a tool of god which human should not found?

Human Black Spot

Nothing is for sure. The unsure-ness is the black spot. Look at the sign of yin and yang, where there is too much black, there is a white spot; and when there is too much white, there is a black spot. Which I am trying to say the white spot is the black spot for black and the black spot is the black spot for white…

Confused?

Everything has a black spot which cause uncertainty. Our eye had a black spot where there is a point we cannot see; black hole is a black spot of the universe where all laws broken; our believe system has a black spot which is doubt…

Steven Hawkins, a remarkable scientist, hopes human can’t find the Higgs Particle…

I find this another funny part of human. Whenever we try to hard and professional to do something, we tend to tell our self to stop trying and there is another better way. So is the moment we try to understand someone, we will come to a door in their heart that we do not want to enter; same as you find it funny why there is a door in your heart, unlock, but no one is going in.

This black spot of human psychology is the main reason people war, divorce, fight and loneliness, which is the same reason why we always felt we couldn’t find some one who truly understand ourselves. It is also the reason why each and every one of us is so different.

Scientific Religions

Don't know since when, I begin to hate religious people that talks bad about other people's religion. Especially those that said others are unscientific and unhealthy.

Religions aren't sceintific. We are the one that believe they are. Otherwise, what is scientific?

I dare to tell you, scientific has to be under certain condition. Scienctist believe in certain theory before they prove it. There are even remarkable scientist believe in something that science cannot prove. Followers of scientology believe in immortal and spirit, without scientific prove.

Why can't people see through people's eye? Imagine themselves being born in that life and had the same influence. What will you believe? I bet you would most probably follow what everybody around does and believe as you are now.

Unless you always change your believe systems as you believe in advancing healthcare systems. I will very much appreciate if you do not criticise others.

Global Entrepreneur Week

It’s the Global Entrepreneur Week (GEW), and I have been there for three of the activities. I do not know whether the activities are bringing entrepreneurship in to the young because I think I never participate enough for that. But the numbers of activities are extreme. For the whole week, it is like five activities happened at one time if include those happenings in Penang and Sarawak.

I have been positive about this, and I mean real positive. I really see a changing world, despite Obama was elected as the President of the world (by looking at the number of people around the world that support him, he deserves to be World President). It seems to me like the world will be focusing on entrepreneur more than ever. As said by the riches man of in world, Bill Gate, capitalism will be the savior of the world. Yes, look at how those who brought pc to our desk, cars to our porch, and handphone to our hand, aren’t they the coolest person in the world? All of them started as an entrepreneur who sees opportunities through craziness and stubbornness and excessive self-believe, which are the qualities to be an entrepreneur. You think this iss madness but see how they change the world?

All these were supported by famous universities of the world. I think this is an evidence of universities, eager in finding ways to train successful people.

Now, imagine the world find a way to train people to be the next Bill Gate, Henry Ford, Rockefeller, and Warren Buffet…. How will our world look like?

How Stupid Do They Think We Are?

Reporter: Why is the Finance Minister still suggesting to the people to spend more since this policy is the main reason that cause this recession today?

D.F.Minister: Because our system is different. Our bank have extra capital, our people save money in the bank, the mortgage figure is different in our bank… our system are different from the US. Our money is, most of the time, kept in the bank and did not generate cash flow. Worst now in the recession, people are more careful on their spending. This will only cause the market to deteriorate.

This is what happens in a press conference today. I find it rather funny. Isn’t this the same meaning as asking people to kill their habits that had saved them?

People have been saving all the while and it is the same attitude that saved our country's economy as one of the less effected one. Now we were asked to throw that savior in to the dustbin and betray him. I wonder if there any decent man who will listen to him?

This is a stupid policy and a failure; meanwhile the ministry is using this to show the people that they are actually helping but it just did not work. Not to mention that they will spend billions in the stock market to pump up the prices, which is also proven a failure in the US months ago, if 95 percent of the billions did not go somewhere else sensitive.

Get Kill by Stereotyping

What do you think of a middle age lady wearing formal and thick frame glasses which holds a ruler in her hand? I mean what is her profession? A teacher? You are stereotyping. Why can’t she be a lawyer holding a ruler as an important evident? Why can’t she be an architect or a sales lady who sales extraordinary ruler?

What will you do if you find out that your best friend’s mother is a liar who lies about her illness to cover her shame that she actually meeting different people every night, which you do not think your friend knows?

Will you tell your friend about his/her mother?

What if he/she had probably known and he/she is actually trying very hard to cover the truth, the truth that his/her mother feed him/ her by having sex with strangers? Your friend will probably have you murdered.

Who says a good and normal friend’s mother cannot be a prostitute? You are stereotyping and this will probably have you killed.

茅盾的思念

随着时代的进步，科技将地球缩小了。

地球既然缩小了，许多跨国的爱情都比较容易维持了。

科技已经代替了思念。

随便上个网，拨个电话就可以解决了八十巴仙的思念。

同时科技也把我们痛苦的思念夺取了。可不知是好是坏？夺走了思念之苦便是夺走了刻骨的浪漫。

那一封因思念得发狂，眼睛见到的太阳、月亮、桌子、椅子、铅笔、路人、电脑尽是思念中人的影子；耳朵

听到的风声、雨声、甚至太阳的说话也听得出的情信已经绝种了。

留下的尽是一封封速战速决的的短讯。

What Will You Do?

If you were being captured by a military force, put in a place producing poison gas, which will use to kill innocents, will you do it?

Let’s say you are a brave person, you will sacrifice your life to safe the others. Then the captain of the military told you that if you refuse, all your helper here will be crucify and they will find someone else to do the job.

If you agreed on the job with reason to safe those captured here, many innocents out there will die; if you refuse, those captured, which are also innocent, will die. What will you do?

This question occurs to me after watching The Counterfeiter.

What Make Us Stay?

What make us stay in life?

Fear? Fear of death? Fear of pain? Responsibility?

Why don't we end our life, ended all these material illusions that bring us joy and sorrow, which we cannot bring with us forever?

What is the real force behind all this that keep us living?

I was watching the movie Tsotsi, where Tsotsi asked a paralysed old man who beg for a living on a wheelchair, why he still wants to live, since he is living like a dog?

That old man said because he loves to feel the sun shining on the street and on himself in the morning.

Is that sufficient to keep us from living? I do not have an answer.

Human/Software Purpose

Do we have a purpose in life?

Who give us the purpose?

Or we choose our purpose?

Will we be satisfy and have the imagination of in-control, as long as we have choices?

Yes. The feeling of in-control is a human imagination. When we have the power to choose, we feel in-control. When we don't, we fight for it, and give it a name-freedom. -From Matrix.

What do you think of software?

Did it have a purpose?

What happen to a software without purpose? e.g a software to calculate how long you take shower.

What will happen to that software? Abandoned? Deleted?

If a software has its purpose for existence, like us, what will happen to human being that do not know their purpose?

Should we delete "software" like animals? What is their purpose? Or should we abandon humans that do not have a purpose for its existence?

Choice

Here is a situation, in a fine morning where someone prepared a sandwich and a cup of coffee for you. What would you do? Say thank you? Sit down and enjoy the breakfast? Reject the breakfast because you are not use to breakfast?

If you have chosen an act, what made you choose? Is it your habit? Or is it already written in your DNA, that you will act this way in situation like this? If this is true, then it can be said that we had already made that choice, in fact, every choice in life had been chose.

Then this will mean that we are not in control of our life. To heaven or hell, we had chose.

If this is not true, then what made us choose? What made us make a decision?

Might it be the imbalance or the incomplete in our world that causes uncertainty? So we have to make a choice of which way to go, or which incompleteness we want?

If incomplete and imbalance is the source that give us the power to choose, the power of in control, why we always try to balance or complete it?

Is heaven a complete place?

Is hell a place to gather all the incompleteness?

More important is, which is your choice?

Philosophy of a Serial Killer

The author will not be responsible if anyone turns to a serial killer by reading this blog. Click away if do not have confidence. Anyway, why so serious? Read lah!

You know the water suppose to flow downward. Why make it flow up?

You know you will be hungry. Why eat?

You know people will hate you. Why tell the truth?

You know you will be hurt. Why love?

You know why you do not have wings. Why build airplane?

You know your children will die. Why give birth?

You know you are not supposed to kill. Why kill me?

I know they are supposed to live. So, I killed them.

Isn’t that what you are doing everyday?

At least I thank god every time before I kill for giving me a chance to kill. Some of you don’t even feel thankful for a meal.

Fear

Fear is a two-sided blade.

It warns us from an approaching danger.

When fear, we do stupid stuff like killing and destroying the earth, which will further destroy us.

Who are we? Virus.

“It’s not who you are deep inside that defines you. It’s what you do that defines you.”—From Batman Begins.

“I've realized that you are not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment. But you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus.”—From The Matrix.

You get what I mean?

真心

大家都知道，真心的朋友是讲心，其他的什么都不重要。但是到底真心是怎样？有人认为坦白就是真心、有人认为付出就是真心、有人认为常常在身边就是真心、有人认为配合是真心、有人认为在一起快乐就是真心、有人认为了解就是真心、有人认为给到自己自由的就是真心……

世界上有那么多种真心，如果个个人都以自己的真心与他人的真心比的话，几时才找到真心朋友？就算找到了也因为彼此的真心不同而分开了。那样实在是可惜。真心和真心有什么不同？只不过是大家的方式不同罢了。

黑皮肤、白皮肤、黄皮肤、棕色皮肤，还不都是人？为什么一定要分种族？

只是我个人的看法罢了。希望世界上所有的真心朋友永远在一起。

A World of Code

There is a code for how the webpage you are reading appears.

There is a code for your pc to run.

There is a code for you to understand what I am talking.

When I point to the moon, my finger is the code and the moon is my answer.

Word is the code to record our meaning, invented by our ancestor.

Voice is the code we transfer our message into.

Voice is also the code we transfer (by our brain) to get the message within.

Word is the code that contents a great story, for when we read novel, images the words describe run in our brain.

Account is the code of how a business runs.

F=ms is the code for force, V=IR is the code for volt, E=mc2 is the code of amount of energy content in a mass, etc.

DNA is the code of how our body behaves and looks; we are the code of how the society behave and look; the society is the code of how our world behaves. (So is it DNA that controls the society?)

The existence of everything in harmony is the code that god is there.

If our DNA is the same, why each of us is so different?

If everything has a code, what is the code for our soul? Or if there is no code for it, is that mean we do not have soul?

God(damn) Particle

Have you heard about Higgs particle nicknamed god particle? This particle had once cause the world a fear of earth turning into black hole, which will kill everyone. Of course it wouldn't caught such attention if it were never given a nickname like that. The nickname is first named by Leon M. Lederman, which is suppose to be a joke that Higgs' particle is a goddamn particle.

If you have heard of it, you would know what it does to the human mind, psychologically. If not I'll tell you.

Higgs particle is hypothesized to be a particle that creates all the elements in the world under certain condition. If this hypothesis is true, human were said to have found gods first tool to create everything in the world. A further study will be there are actually no god. It all happens after The Great Explosion. All this is now being researched under CERN, European Organization for Nuclear Research.

People that against this research gave a reason that a certain process will create a black hole. This is a nonsense argument because if they really knew about black hole and the world, they will never use this argument. CERN scientist said that black hole is created every seconds in our world. It's just the size is too small that it disappear immediately. This research will only create such black hole.

I think those against the research have another reason behind...

All the while humans had been proud that they are god's greatest creation. This proud will be flushed down the toilet, if this is to be true. This is a common human nature which immune to change. They have to defend their believe system so that they can stay in their comfort believes.

The End of Racism?

...and Obama wins!

Is this the end of racism? I doubt. It is the growing number of Asians in US that causes the white to feel that the black are more America, of course not all, but, I believe, most. Anyway, it is a great first step to end racist issue. Not only for US but the whole world.

Yes I am happy that Obama wins. My prediction is, US will still be the leader of the world. This time not in economy, but in politics.

Since I am a Malaysian, here is a Malaysian political racism news: Low Siew Moi, the Deputy General Manager of PKNS (a state development body) , has had doing everything and I mean really every projects (including the GM of PKNS work) for the past 10 years. Now they are changing the GM but Low is not in considered. In fact her resignation letter had been rejected and was asked to be in charge until they find a Bumiputra (local-breed) for the post. Many even protest this decision because she is not a Bumiputra, especially the ruling party a.k.a UMNO.

Hurray for Malaysia...

Appreciating Women

Once I read an article about men appreciating women. It said men in twenties will look women on their face, men in thirties will look women’s breast, and forties will look at their waist, while fifties and above will look at the back.

Young men like showing off, so a beautiful face is all they need; middle age men love sex, so they like the body; while older age men appreciate women’s past, so, they look at their back which (I doubt about this) tells their life stories. According to that article, men above fifties appreciate women most, because they like them for who they are in the past which most probably will be the same person now and the future.

I do not know how true this article is. But as a man, when I am thinking what a lady this is, how great this lady is, how thoughtful, pity her, she’s got a long way to go, she will succeed one day, she’s lost, I like women like that, etc… most probably I will be looking at her back.

I think the article is somehow true. How true do you think this is?

Giving

Once, Confucius passed by a young man which is unhappy. Confucius asked the young man what maked him so sad. The young man said he was hungry. So, Confucius gave him some food. The young man was happy and Confucius left.

Years later, Confucius bumped in to that young man again, which was still sad. Confucius asked him why was he still sad? That young man said that he is poor. So, Confucius took out many ounce of gold and handed it to that young man. The young man left happily.

Years later, Confucius saw that young man again, which was still sad. The young man walked up and told Confucius that he had invested the gold Confucius gave him and he is now richer than ever. “But why am I still not happy?” asked the young man. So, again, Confucius asked the young man what he wants. “Happiness.” answered the young man. Confucius laughed and told him that this is the one thing that no body can give, he have to find a way to earn it. Then Confucius left, living the young man frustrated.

One day, Confucius saw a wealthy man giving out money and food to the poor. The wealthy man saw him and walked near, it is the young man that was asking for happiness long ago. The young man told Confucius that he is living as happy as never before.

I guess Bill Gate and Warren Buffet understand this. That is why they are so rich and they give their wealth to other, and it makes them even richer.

Are You Watching Closely?

The title is a line from The Prestige. In fact it is how magicians keep their audience under control. Or should I say it is the audience who likes to stay fooled but try to be smart in their own way?

We have, generally, five senses, some have six or more, they may be born with it or acquire it some way. Have you ever wondered how important these senses are? Imagine you without these senses, not even one. How is it? See what magicians like David Copperfield and David Blaine can do by only exploring one sense, the sense of receiving light, which is done by our eye.

Have you ever wondered why movie industry is so huge that we cannot live without it? If you know theatre, which is an ancestor of cinema, you will know that it is the earliest form of art. Guess why? Simple. It consists three of our senses.

Imagine what you can do with more than three senses, which you already have.

If you see a thing with only your eyes, you will only see two dimensions. If you touch it, you feel the third. What if you use all your senses? Will it be clearer?

Obviously, it is through our senses that we contact with the world. Why don’t use them all? I mean fully use.

Here is a question for deep thinker. Since we contact the world with senses, where will we be without our senses? Or senses that is totally different from those we using now?

为什么我们都不选择天堂？

人们都害怕地狱，但为什么人们一去永不愿归?

人们都向往天堂，但为什么人们一见就回头？

阴与阳

有与无

天堂与地狱

原来地狱里什么都有，难怪人人一去永不愿归。

原来天堂里什么都没有。难怪人人一见就回头。

Wind Valley

Once a friend told me that the poorest of all men is one without a dream. It’s a Saturday morning and I woke up late. I have a dream today.

I dream of a place between mountains which is named by villagers there “Wind Valley”. It is named after the phenomena in the valley which is the wind there never stop blowing, 24/7. It is a zero carbon place where all energies are free, generated by wind, as the wind never stops. Villagers there grow their own food and never need outside help. It’s like a place of its own… If you watch a lot of cartoons, you’ll know that this is not my name but a Studio Ghibli’s production, Wind Valley.

Such wonderful place like Wind Valley is possible with today’s technology; in fact, go read about the construction of Dubai. Of course, Dubai does not have wind blowing for 24/7 like Wind Valley, but they manage to make energy there free. Thanks to the hot sun there and a kind of seaweed that produces hydrogen gas. But above all, thanks to those who found it.

This is where architects today are heading; they use resources around the building, which are free, and eco-friendly. I’m pretty sure every part of the world consists energy which we do not know but can be use for free, without emitting carbon or destroying the nature.

As said by a well known architect, Renzo Piano, “We have been searching for mountains to build houses on it; it is time where we build mountain on our house.” Which means our house should support the nature around it, not destroy.

Your Life On Your Hand

Will you advise a person to work hard to overcome his poverty, which is not his destiny?

Or in other words, take control of his life?

Will it be as far as his own life?

How far different is it?

What will you tell him? That there is more in life? Love?

What about “He is selfish, he only thinks about himself”?

Have you think about yourself? That are telling people to do what you want them to, instead of letting them taking control of what is to be more than them than it is yours? Who is more selfish?

Is their body really god given and only god can take them away?

Or is it them who stole it from god and that’s why they are suffering, that’s why they eager to return it?

How sure are you that it is not? You are not dead yet.

If you really want to help, perhaps you should die first and tell them the truth about dying; as one of our many gods did.

This makes me wonder, should this god prevent others from following his path?

Inspire after watching “The Sea Inside”.

Can You Feel The Force?

Just when I thought that we finally have broken the rule of the universe, I found out that we are actually not. We all guided by a force, like the wave of the sea, which you can predict, that flows around us, as historians believe that history repeats itself.

Just when I thought that the US will be the first country to overcome racial discrimination by voting for Obama, I found out that it was actually not, like a wave which you can see from far. As American had been rejecting their minors to be president all the while, now, they felt that they were threaten by the Asian immigrants, which are a growing number there. Out of nothing, they felt that the African-Americans are more American than the Asians. If Asians had not been increasing there, I doubt that Obama would come this far.

This means that we all are still racist even if Obama get to be the president. We haven't get out of the discriminating wave yet. It just shift from black to yellow. The world and us will continue to be racist as the system haven't change.

The world will still progress with it's own pace, nevermind if Obama wins or not. It will not change drastically. We are the one that hope for drastic change (if you follow my blog, you will find this as one of human characteristic), but we did not do enough to change it. The world will still only go one step at a time.

Self-improve

Once a reporter who is amazed by a calligrapher writing with both hands at one time. The reporter asks the calligrapher how he learn the skill.

The calligrapher said, "During World War II, my hand was broken by a soldier. After that I have no choice but to learn to write with my left hand, since my career is a writer. After the war, my right hand slowly recovered and now I can choose which hand I like to use."

Happy times do not make us learn. We become a better person by going through difficulties.

So, going to heaven do not improve us because everyone is happy there. Should we be more appreciate if we are sent to hell?

我的人生路

在我不懂事的时候，我就会走路了。在我懂事的时候，我已经会走路了。那时还会想，走路真的那么重要吗？比董事重要？

在我不懂我说什么的时候，我已经会说话了。那时还会怀疑，说话比你懂你在说什么重要吗？

人家说上课拿个好成绩，将来做个有用的人。那个时候我不明白，但我却已经去上课了。

人家说上大学可以拿到高薪高职位的工作，那时我不明白怎样，我却已经在大学读第二年了。

人家又说现在大学生不值钱了，因为成功的人都没有上大学。那时我已经大学毕业了。

我见朋友们都找了份工作，开始独立的生活了。我也找到了一份工作，为生活打拼。

电视上说爱情和赚钱一样重要。我已找到了另一半，结婚了。

社会上说有一份稳定的收入和幸福的家庭是成功的。那时我小孩上学了，收入却减少了。我不能离职，因为全家靠我生活。

巴刹卖菜的说孩子长大了可以退休了，因为孩子可以养自己。当时我已经退休了，孩子也大学毕业了，自己的生活都有问题怎么养得起我？

宗教告诉我，死亡是人生的一部分，所以我生病了。孩子听说做人要孝顺，所以借了一大笔钱给我医病。

孩子正烦恼该如何还债时，我告诉他人生就是身不由己，虽然我自己也不大明白。但因为人人都是这样告诉他们的孩子的，所以我也说了。

我走了。人人都说人是来地球旅行几十年，然后就走的。我这一趟旅行好像是很赶时间，坐在车里经过，还没看清楚，还没走进去感觉到我有来过，导游就说还有几个地方要去就走了。

Why So Serious?

Criminals aren't complex. So is human. They are either lost, gone the wrong direction, in the right path or jumping down the line we all walk on. Those jumping down are most given up. We have a name for them, suicide. While those heading in the right direction do not cause any problem. The rest are the agent of chaos.

If you can't understand someone (especially your boss), follow instructions below:

1. Look for his goal.

2. See whether he is heading the right direction.

3. (If you read this direction, he is probably not.) Advice him.

4. (If you read this direction, he is probably unadviceable.) Revise your direction.

5. Plan your new way to that direction.

6. Leave him, bravely.

You can follow my direction or like the example below:

A man lost in the jungle. He found another man who is also lost. That man told him that he had lost two more days than the man earlier and he knew the jungle better than him. The first man follow him as though he had found a hope. Later, the first man found out that the directing man doesn't has a compass, worst, he is walking in a circle. The first man had a compass but the directing man told him that it is useless. So, they stay in the same position.

Something wrong?

So are your boss!

Now I tell you not really.

If your boss enjoys the feelings of lost. He will most probably ask you this question:

Why so serious?

Then you better hope that you also enjoy trapping in the jungle.

Funny Thing About Chasing the Tiger

Today I found another funny side of human. All normal healthy human know that money will go to those wealthy people as if they were money magnet. So, most of the human work very hard to chase the money.

Lets make it clearer by this example: You are a hunter and you realize that the tiger will chase after a deer. So, you work hard on your foot work so that you can catch up with the tiger.

Funny, isn't it?

Choose only 1 life below:

Life 1: Work very hard, fill your day with your potential customer, have fun when you get rich one day.

Life 2: Do whatever you like so that you can have fun really hard. Have fun so hard that one day you can be really good in having fun.

If you spend time reading books like biography of the really rich, You will know which life Warren Buffet, Bill Gate, and Donald Trump have chosen.

But the funny part is most people do not have time for reading but they go clubbing or supper everynight. I guess they must be really stressed running after the tiger in the day.

Another Truth You Wouldn't Believe

I am going to teach you a power. Those who think that this article is a bullshit should stop here; while those that fear they are going to change their religious view should, really, stop here. Meanwhile, those religious people should, seriously, click the back button at the top left of your screen like, now. Still want to read? Then read. You wouldn't believe it, anyway.

Ok, now I guess only left me alone writing this blog. I am going to tell you the secret to forsee the future and your pass.

First of all, a little history on how fortune-teller found their way to know your secrets without spying on you. The founders kept a record on all the signs on human body together with how their lifes were spent. Then they analyzed them and found out that everyone that did the same thing in their life tend to leave the same sign on their body. For example, those that live long will have a longer line below their palms. The research went on with people realizing that there are many waves that affect the human mind and stuff like that.

So, this means no tricks or any super power on forseeing the past and the future. The very basic of fortune-telling is actually very scientific. The good news is it is so scientific that everyone that understand that if they jump down the building they will most problably heading down can do it. It is cause and effect, the same basic as science.

Now, get ready for the secret. But before I tell you, I know even if I told, you are not going to believe me. That is the origin of one of the human nature, greed, come from. They want dramatic in their boring life, like a sudden wealth instead of step by step, which cause each and every financial crisis like today's.

Ok, the secret is: What you do now is cause by what you did past; and what you have in your future is cause by what you do now.

Example 1 : You are hungry now. Then you know you haven't eat.

Example 2 : You do not want to eat. Then you can predict that you are going to be hungry in the future.

Hard to believe, isn't it? I warned you.

新潮的虚伪

东方人常常说西方人性格直接，不分尊卑，思想浅薄。我却觉得东方人说一套做一套，实在是虚伪。

试想想在东方人的家庭会有父母假到常常对儿女说他们很疼他们，所说所做都是为他们好。如果您的父母这么做的话，您反而觉得他们虚假，只说不做。反之如果您的父母二话不说，把自己的棺材本拿出来让您供屋子，又静静地走回房间，你会感动得哭了出来。

告诉我，您的死党会在您的面前说出这样的话：“我们几十年好朋友，不要这么客气。”或则您的死党会在家里与自己的另一半大吵得家也没得回，却在您的面前装作平白无事的把钱交给您。而您已经在她的眼神看出了这一切，您也不想这样但却是逼于无耐，只能眼睁睁地看着她的背影离去。

这不都才是东方人的真正生活吗？为什么在东方的连续剧里却是连影子都没有？我们的连续剧除了几人讲话吵得不可开交，毫无隐瞒地把剧情用对白讲完出来之外，便就只有烦。我们那令人骄傲的欲言又止，一切尽在无言中的情怀呢？

为什么追连续剧追得那么疯狂？家里静得很，需要电视里的演员来大吵一番吗？实在是虚伪。

What 3M Teach Us

Mengira

Membaca

Menulis

Aren't there something missing?

Memikir?

One of the worst thing we do to our children is telling them what to do. Parents in my country which grow up under this culture tend to do the same to their children by excessively controlling what they do, like telling them what to see on the net and what not to see on the net.

These type of parents contradict themselves by thinking they are helping their children. They are actually destroying them. They think they are teaching their children to fish in a pond with fish they rare. Aren't it ridiculous?

Isn't it like teaching your kids to swim without letting them in the water? Is there reason like your kids are too small to float in water? Give me a break.

A Word for You

I wonder why people don't understand my blog. Is my English too well? Or is it too deep? I have reasons both of this is not true. My English is not very well, I have many grammar mistakes in my articles. And my articles aren't deep I am sure people can understand. It is as simple as fairy-tale.

So what is it?

Just analyse everything around you and you will find my blog as stupid as kindergarten text book.

Meanwhile, understanding is one thing. Doing it is thousands miles different. Good luck in understanding it. Thanks for saying I am too proud of myself. I have my own problem too.

We Can't Let Go, That's Why We Drown.

How hard is it to let go?

When we see a way to wealthiness, will we let go?

When we see a way to healthiness, will we let go?

Will we let go the moment of happiness?

Will we let go the moment of calmness?

Will we let go our past?

Should we let go our parents? Our family?

Should we let go our dream?

Should we even letting go the this thought of letting go?

Swimmers understand something none-swimmers don't. That's why the body of none-swimmers will only float when he let go of his hard-headed owner, who will never let go.

懂得游泳的人了解一样事情不懂游泳的人不了解的。这也是为什么不会游泳的人的身体只会在它放弃了它那固执的主人之后，才会自己浮起。

We Are all Racist

"If you only have place for your own race, you are discriminating."

The sentence above is taken from Black Eye Peas "Where is the Love" lyrics.

Actually deep down in all of us, we are racist. It is in our blood. If you disagree, answer questions below:

1. 1. If two old ladies, one if of your own race the other is not, falls down which will you help? If you only can help one of them.
2. 2. A kid of your own race and a kid of other race are drowning in a river and you can only save one, which would you choose?
3. 3. A company of your own race and a company of other race are facing bankrupcy, your government can only save one, which company will you wish your government to save?
4. 4. An orphanage of your own race and an orphanage of other race needs your help now, which will you go?
5. 5. A beauty from your own race marry an ugly fella from another race. Would you rather wish she marry someone ugly of your own race?

Whatever you are deep inside, just don't make it a scene. Other race want to live as well as yours.

Walk the Line

Since we were born, we were put on a line to walk, not knowing where it ends, and we just keep moving forward.

Everything we learn in life is how to balance.

Everything we do is balancing.

Once we lose balance, we fall.

Some simply give up. We got a name for it, suicide.

We do not know where we are heading but hoping that it is worth the effort.

Some how, everyone falls at a point. No one reach the other side.

Maybe falling down is the other side...

Do you know what I'm talking about?

The Defeated Hare

Below are the press conference with the hare after the hare and tortoise race.

(Q:question by reporter, H:hare)

Q:Why did you stop and rest?

H:The tortoise is far behind. I thought he will never catch up no matter how.

Q:What makes you think you are winning?

H:Isn't that obvious? How can some one like that catch me? If I can't beat him, I would have dead long ago, hunt by the hunter.

Q:When you were resting, you never give it a second thought?

H:I did. I look forward at the end point and to the tortoise. The end point is just in front of me; the tortoise is far behind. I think and think and think forward and backward and there is not a reason the tortoise can catch up with me. Then only I decided to stop and rest.

Thinking too much in the future or too much in the past will not bring us any result, because we only live now.

The Simple Truth, You Wouldn't Believe

The tortoise and the hare had agreed to have a race. Below are part of the press conference from the tortoise.

(Q:queastion by the reporter, T:Tortoise)

Q:Why do you want to race the hare?

T:I wanted to show the world that everything is possible.

Q:What makes you think you can win the race?

T:I don't think I can win the race. I just know everything is possible eventhough it is seconds before the race end.

Q:How are you going to prepare for the race?

T:By making sure the food I ate is digested to energy, the energy transform to power, and the power strengten my body.

Q:Any strategy to win the race?

T:Keep moving until the race end.

And the tortoise win the race.

Things are simple in the world. So, simple that we could not believe it. It's our life so boring that we always hope for something extraordinary. The further the journey to extraordinary, the further we are from the truth.

Are Leaders Born?

Why so few of us really make things happen?

Why only one person really does it when everyone knows what to do?

Why we feel hopeless while leaders give us hope?

Where do their energy come from?

If god is fair, we all have the same resources. But why only certain person get to inspire people to do things (whether he/she is an atheist or not)?

Everyone knows that in order to make the person in the mirror moves, we have to move first. Why only certain people really applying it?

Why don't we feel the same way the leaders feel?

Why we have to wait for someone to tell us that climate change is happening?

Why we felt despair while the leaders search for solution?

Why do we blame others for making us despair to make us feel better?

Why do we get despair and wait for the leaders to inspire us?

Why wait for inspiration since the leaders are also human and they don't wait for it?

Why we wait for others to give instructions, so that if anything went wrong, we always have someone to blame?

Why blame them since we refuse to move in the first place?

Why we always blame those who make move, since it is us, whether we make a move or not, that let it happen?

Don't you feel foolish when you sit in front of the mirror blaming others because the person in the mirror won't pick up his/her hand?

Why don't we grow up and pick up responsibility?

Since not everyone is smart enough to realize that he/she have to move before the person in the mirror moves, I wonder, are leaders born?

The Chinese Dilemma

One morning, a shop assistance went to work at a sundry shop as usual. The only different today is that the door of the shop had been broken into. Just when the assistance walks near the door, two police man walk out. One of them even greet the assistance.

The assistance walked in the shop realizing that the shop is a mess and almost everything valuable were gone. The assistance then walked straight to the owner which had been there earlier. The assistance asked, “You call the cops?” “No. They saw it.” The owner answered.

The assistance asked again, “Did you told them who did this?” The owner said, “No.” “Why? The whole neighborhood knows who.” Asked the assistance with frustrate. “It will be worst if the robber knows we told the cops.”

“How can the robber do anything to you if the cops have them? “ Said the assistance.

“What if they don’t? They’ll burn my shop down!” said the owner.

True story from Chinatown, US.
