Good and Bad

Though I have hold on to the Tao teachings since the day I know this world, I never know it has been revealed earlier than I know.

But, I am not disappointed though.

I realise many teachings of it, I have been that way.

By the way of Tao, the way of life.
















In Tao, right is not always right and so the otherwise.

This because right and wrong in Tao’s mind is the same. It applies to any pairs of opposite.

Take GOOD AND BAD to be an example.

What is GOOD? It’s the opposite of BAD.

Exactly. And BAD is the opposite of GOOD.

With GOOD, only we understand about BAD. So, one has give meaning to one another.

That is what Tao mean by GOOD and BAD is the same.

Therefore, Tao don’t believe in doing any CHANGE especially in human mind.

It is called ‘wu wei’ that I have once against it.

Let us see…
This because when we teach our child NOT TO STEAL..There’s where they learn about STEALING.

This is because when we teach the adults about ROAD RULES..then they BREAK RULES more
Hence GOOD BAD..EVIL ANGEL are all the same.

Introducing one is as introducing another, the opposite.

Therefore,, it’s impossible for moral correctness in Tao.

Hence, what can only control human mind is the Tao, the way of life.

Therefore, nothing can change it other than Tao himself.

But where can we find Tao?

It’s not a scripture or even a holy text. It’s just Tao.

No wonder I have live together with Tao until now though I have known "non-Tao" more than Tao.

It's because when I learn the "non-Tao", I realise what is Tao actually.

Lame..Yea, that is how lame a teaching can be.

Yet Tao never stops. Why?
Because it isn't trying to accomplish anything.

I am here to win, you know what to do?

Finally, IUC ended in its usual norm and convention while preserving its tradition as usual years.

I was so irresponsible that I can be there only for at least 6 trainings out of the many zillions they have.

Well, so I guess their achievement of success belongs to the seniors with the respective leaders and members especially.


-Only those who look far and high shall meet success-








They have trained so hard that they want to win so much. Looking on them are exactly looking back my older days.

A few sayings during the competition have caught my mind and make me think further.

Samuel says: Don’t play your mind games with me. I have known you for more than 3 years.
Haha..mind games? Yes, he is right.

Mind games are all about convincing, motivating, framing thoughts and instilling feelings.

With respect, you gain respect. With care, you gain care. With love, you gain love.



-Mind Games-








Bhavesh says: I hear you saying the same thing for more than 3 times.
Haha.. well not much comment. But he is right again.

It’s not lacking of idea. But facts have to be consistent that always revolve around the same circle of thoughts.

I am glad and proud of the fellow members and leaders. Hopefully, all of us shall continue to uphold the spirit and struggle till the very last drop of tears.




-Only those who are strong shall rise to the top-









“Even the boy who walked beside me as just an observer doing nothing have let me witness him achieve excellently now, I wonder what else I want.”





This place have leave me with ample of sweet bitter memories..Hence, I am not afraid to say that my heart still not completely dismiss from this Unit.


-From learners to leaders-









But as time passes by, I have to admit my end is near.. And therefore, I shall kuai kuai be the ex-committee in the future competitions.

-Just don’t let this glory diminish and faded away-

Returning and Leaving

Time really flies..my settlement on this peaceful land is going to end soon..

Of course I am returning again for the next holidays, but surely I am going to miss here, at least for now.

I am surely going to miss the kenduri(s) for khatan sunat (circumcision for the Muslim children when they attain puberty) or even the akad nikah (marridge).

I counted. I attended at least 5 kenduri(s) of many events..imagine how much I had 'top up' to my body weight..haih =.=

















































I wil miss the live performance using the gendangs, gong, seruling and kompang.
















The cheerful and closely-bonded ties between relatives and family members in the wedding
























My uncle challenge me the Alor Setar "so called" famous Laksa with Penang Asam Laksa..haha which laksa you think will win leh? Obviously Penang la..but good try to the Kedah version
























haha..round-about in the town reminds me a lot of Shah Alam..tis wan wif Rukun Negara symbol..there is another smaller wan i think in front..with another 1 haha many la













With the hot weather, I am extremely grateful to get free coconuts just outside my grandfather's house..but you have to pluck it ourself la..worth the sweat we drop

I finish 4 young and fresh coconuts..skip lunch for that



























This can be a routine as well, boring yet fun!!

Catching peacock fish from the long strech of river along the valley,
Striding down the road in the evening feeling the breeze passing through you,
Go for a basketball game with some kampung children,
Curi some telur ayam...ssshhhshhhshh don't tell anyone leh
Go for a roti canai with cousins in the late night.
Hike Gunung Jerai and be satisfied at the PEAK!! (never try before yet) haha halfway still


There's many many more stuff I miss to do here...but to keep the best for the last will be:

The green loving scenery that will welcome you every morning and say goodbye to you when the sun set every evening.



























Say Hi to Penang again...and see what is going to be for Inter Unit Competition..
Pray hARD

Rich and Poor

Today, I walked alone down the road of an old village just around my grandparent's hometown.

My cousins wanted to follow. But I just want to be alone.

Most of the time, if I walked with them, I just cannot concentrate with what is surrounding me. Accompanying them instead.

I am glad that I get the scene all by my own today.

Firstly, I saw 1 old Malay guy clearing the bushes around his house. He is a tomb maker (I wonder if that's what you called them).

He talk with some Kedah Malay Slang. I understood. I replied with a Hi, I smile and I walk pass him.

Then, I saw a few Malay childrens playing badminton. They were shouting something. If I am not mistaken, they should be cheering "Lee Chong Wei".

After that, on my left and right, I saw luxurious houses on my left and right.

These structures were never erected when I came here maybe about 4 years ago.

Things have changed.

I cleared my steps moving on and think...

Are they poor before and now they are rich?
What are poor and what are rich?
Why are we poor and why are we rich?

Hmm...questions by questions struck my head causing greater migraine...especially in this poor little curious boy like me..

Well, poor is a state of poverty..it is just a measure of property.
Rich is a state of luxury..owning many assets and rights and the vice versa.

Well, so what if there are no poors 1 day?

Then, it will be the end of the world!!!

Why??

Because when 1 day everyone think they are rich enough, nobody will compete to be richer, hence no development in economic growth, a nation will diminish its overall performance, and a civilisation shall collapse!!!

Maybe this is a slippery slope ( a fallacy I learn in my critical thinking lesson)..

But I let my imagination continue swaying out from reality...

A country can only prosperous as long there are poors..

As long the poors work hard to be rich, then the country will automatically be stronger and richer too..

So, how to stop the end of the world I mean just now?

Then, the poor must think they are poorer and work harder and harder...
On the other hand, the rich must think they are not rich enough (or better still, they are extremely poor)

Then, definitely everyone will strive their best to improve their financial stability.

I am not joking..

Look at people like Loh Boon Siew (Tan Sri), Yap Chor Ee..all this are rich taukay last time..

What happen to them now?

Losing in their rich luxurious dreamland...because their generations later on think they are rich enough and hence there is nothing to fill back.

This is the end of the world I mean...

SO!!

C'mon poor people (like me)

Let us rise and be no shame to admit of our poverty

In fact, we are the backbone to the development of the country.
(It is because it's more possible for the poorer to be poor and then rich..

There are smaller number of population for those rich to be richer and richest

Eg: there are only 1 Bill Gates you can be.

But there are many many many people which can gain richer every day.

So, we are the majority..
We are the deciding factor..
We are the roots of the nation..

Let's not look down at ourselve..
The country need us more than the rich..

But thinking we are POOR is just not enough

DO SOMETHING TO CHANGE OUR LIFE..

Let us lift our head high when someone feel we are not rich..that are what they suppose to think

And that is what we gonna change every moring whenwe open our eyes...

-I am a very bad manipulater whahaha-

(alright better I sleep before I got spank..my grandpa have came out and warned me for the 4th time..)

Good Luck to the Poors!!

Music of the Night

As the melody of Music of the Night filling up the space of the living room, my thoughts flying far recalling life before today.

As soon as I return from Shah Alam, I have did nothing much beneficial to the society except to myself.

I have over-charged myself when I sleep almost more than 10 hours a day.

Other than that, nothing excites me other than going for the recent LTC by Penang Free School MRC where I get to meet many new born babies of the society.

As usual, I have give some hard words to them and make more than little of them to be offended, haha even though some make out a forced smile but I know what running down their thoughts.



















Wil Sern is right. When I am back, I just cannot control that hard talk style. Bossy, aggressive and arrogant. haha but this time, I am asked to be that. I have been so calm and steady before I got into my unusual tune.

Yet I am still labelled as "soft action" leader..as I have neither show my temper or raise my voice with anyone before..but air tenang jangan kausangka tiada buaya lolz



















Haha..nvm hate me for my mouth..not my heart..I am always a kind person haha =P

So sad I got to leave the camp at about 4am.

Driving on my grandfather's road (since nobody is using that), I tried some rempit style on a 60-70 km/h speed. Nothing much can be done since I am still driving slow.

Greet my parents happily (after some disastrous lecture for coming back late), I quickly pack my stuff.

When I realise, I was sleeping on the chair with my legs on the bed.

My dad got so angry and that anger wakes me up (so it's a good thing to happen) before I quickly clean myself.

I just realise seriously I need to follow them to Genting (aiyo so reluctant).

The next time I realise, I am in Genting already. I think I have make my life productive totally by sleeping throughout the journey.

Go around the typical style other than went on the last cable car on 11pm with my friend from Tawau.




















Chatted along the way with scary and fearful feeling (not to hide anymore that I am aerophobic actually)

Feel so sorry as I have to "dumped" my grandfather in the casino with my dad as my Tawau friend keep on bugging me to bring him around..sorry =(

Went for karaoke and realise that I can still sing (though Tiong always say I can only sing 1 type of song which is *@!^ ). .haha




















Went to Chin Swee Temple before I "dumped" my Tawau friend this time in the outdoor theme park so I can accompany my grandfather...yay =(

They have their alcoholic night satisfying themselves with beer and wine while I isolated myself chatting in MSN with my mobile..banned alcoholic drinks

I felt so tired but I will b glad to return Penang again as the Penang trip will begin.
