The talk of Sodomy

I am just sick of the word sodomy and it has been repeated so many times in recent months that I began smell shit everywhere.  This is my true feeling and I think the Government should stop talking of sodomy for political reasons. Make it an offence to use this word again.

Where in the world that the subjectof sodomy have been repeatedly use or done and publicize so much. It has been used over and over  and each time it hurts the people and the image of the country.  Is Malaysia the only country where sodomy is so rampant ? I think the media and Government have over done it especially the Shaffee guy.  He think is an expert in sodomy and going around the country talking about the shit hole. It is very smelly and bad for the kids , fellas.

Another website talks about the legal implication of holes in our body. It is illegal to use any of the holes in our body. Front, back and the mouth with or without consensus. It is an immoral act and using it with consent is also illegal. What happen to the lesbians ? Is there no immorality except only for the homosexuals. Is it fair to the different sexes ?

I don't know that the talk of consensual sex , holes , shits and the law can gain so much publicity and interest.  It was the best sex education for the wrong people. I think enough is enough and such talk is to stop and we return to more important issue surrounding our life and the country.

it has become so disgusting , immoral and stupid to talk around this subject again. Please never to bring it up again.

If it is ever used again for a purpose, I hope GOD will strike these idoits dead.

Namaste.

The benefits of Coffee drinking (ext )

Caffeine intake has been associated with a reduced risk of Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases, according to a new study released yesterday. – File pic, February 27, 2015.People who drink four to six cups of coffee daily may be less likely to get multiple sclerosis, according to international research out Thursday.

"Caffeine intake has been associated with a reduced risk of Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases," said lead author Ellen Mowry of the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, Maryland.

"Our study shows that coffee intake may also protect against MS, supporting the idea that the drug may have protective effects for the brain," she added.

The findings of a US and Swedish study – released ahead of the American Academy of Neurology annual meeting in Washington v each compared more than 1,000 MS patients to a similar number of healthy people.

Researchers tracked how much coffee the subjects drank in the one, five and 10 years before symptoms began for those afflicted with MS.

After accounting for other factors such as age, sex, smoking, body mass index and sun exposure, the Swedish study found that "compared to people who drank at least six cups of coffee per day during the year before symptoms appeared, those who did not drink coffee had about a one and a half times increased risk of developing MS".

Similar protective effects were seen among those who drank lots of coffee five to 10 years before symptoms appeared.

The US study found that "people who didn't drink coffee were also about one and a half times more likely to develop the disease than those who drank four or more cups of coffee per day in the year before symptoms started to develop".

More research is needed to determine if caffeine in coffee has any impact on relapse or long-term disability due to MS, an incurable disease of the central nervous system that affects 2.3 million people worldwide.

The study was funded by the Swedish Medical Research Council, the US National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences and the National Institute on Aging. – AFP, February 27, 2015.

The bird that never came back

The bird that never came back.

It has been 15 years ago, since I let the bird out of the cage with the hope that the bird will come back to me. It has since get out of sight and never to return. Just like  the MH370 just vanished into the thin air.

It has never mend to be and my hope gets dimmer by the day. I have to let the bird go because it is getting restless and was looking for venture and greener pasture.  Anyway, my love for her make me take this hard decision. If it mend to be , it will be. Whatever will be , will be.

It is no meaning to keep the bird in the cage and bottle up the love for it. Love cannot be contained in a bottle. It can be as wide and as deep. The bird needs freedom and it is its destiny.

If you give enough love and freedom for it then it will stay or she flew off but will come back. 

Even if it fly away and never came back , it will be for a reason. She could have found a greater love somewhere or some where where the pastures are greener. It is never to regret because it has found a better love and we should be happy. 

We can only sent out a good wish in silence and hold on to that grim hope that the bird will one day return.

The Jade Emperor -CNY of the Goat

The Jade Emperor

Tonight is the 8th night of the CNY 2015 and it is to pray to the Jade Emperor who is the heavenly emperor. He is the greatest deity of all or the king of all deities.

It was believe that the Hokkien clan was save from the killers after they hide in the sugar cane estate and it was the Jade emperor who help them to safety.  From that incident , the Hokkien people used the sugar cane to pray to the Jade Emperor.

It was the celebration of a new day and this day became  the 1st day for the Hokkien CNY. It was thousand of years ago and the folklore keep evolving and it survive until today.

CNY is celebrated for 15 days and it end with a celebration through another prayer for a good new year.

Let's live well into the year if the goat with more health , wealth and new excitements.

Namaste.

CNY feel ?

It is so strange that  we have some CNY feelings eventhough it is almost 60 years of passing. The feeling is a kind of relax and carefree.  It  is strange as the days are almost like any other days in the year whether it is rooster, rat, pig or snake.  I think the sense is like starting a new.

Why do we need a year to start a fresh ? Everyday is a new day and we can start a fresh. why we need to wait 365 days to start anew. It is so strange.

Like a lot of people have said , it is always in our mind.  We are shaped in this way due to our past by the Establishment.  Every year, we have been looking forward to a new year to start anew. So, we can see the power of our mind.  Just like the rat responding to a ring of a bell for food. When the bell rings, it will find its way to the location of the food.  If we change the route or the spot of the food, the rat will be lost.

Today is the 8th day of the Chinese lunar day and it is for the Hokkien people to pray to the heavenly God. This is the first day of the Hokkien clan for the CNY. It is so strange why we have to 1st day of New Year. This is the creation of man and this custom have been drum into my head when we were young. Why can't  it be the first day ? If it can be the 1st day, then every day can be the 1st day , right ? This belief have been drum into our head again.

During a few days into CNY, my wife asked me to buy a pair of new shoes and I told her it is against our custom to buy shoes and booms.  These two items is not auspicious.  I don't know why but we were told that it will distroy our luck on the new year.  Yeah, it is drummed into our head again.

So, what new year ? it is a make belief world.  It is better than a white piece of paper and it creates a different feeling.

Namaste.

Nothingness - fragility of life

Everything is a passing moment . Life come and go leaving no footprints on this earth. They are forgotten with the passage of time unless they have created an impact to this world.  Anyway, it is only for the historical  records to show how their life have impact the world.

Just like the hot weather, it comes and goes. Life goes on and the show must go on with or without us. We are just a spec of dust lying on the floor waiting for the wind to pick us up and blow us away.

In the end, it is nothing.  We came and go and influenced some human beings as we go through and the wind and rain will clean up our footprints.

Before CNY, I went with my wife to pray for her deceased father and mother. One rest in a hole while another buried in a 6' x 3'. What is difference?  It is still an historical record that we came and gone through this earth.  Many of the plots are left unkept and withering away.

During our life, we believe in Fung Shui , zodiac , palmistry and predictions. What is the point ? it is to be more comfortable when we live through life on earth.  Yeah, just for comfort only but the end is the same.

Maybe I having this negative feelings after spending  one half day with my cancer-stricken sister in law and this sharing moments with her really open up my mind about life. We can do our best to preserve our health but it has to depend on the higher up authority whether he or she wants to live a longer life or not. But , the end is still the same either in a box or a six by three.

It is actually very disturbing in our monkey mind but this is life. Either we control our mind or our mind control us.

Namaste.

Close our heart & shape our behavior

Close our heart, shape our behavior

This is a chinese saying which means that when reach a certain age in life ,we have to cease to create relationships and focus our energy  to seek greater knowledge and wisdom, We have to shape our character and mannerism，We cannot act as if we are still young and keep hunting for relationships,

At different period of time,the meaning of relationship is different and we have to be aware of what we are doing before letting other people misunderstood us and also causing hurt to others,

We must be aware of our actions as human's response are so difficult to judge and controlled, Lets have the inner peace by managing our thoughts and be clear of what we are doing, Don't be sentimental and foolish to believe that the situation is within your control,

Anything relates to the heart can have unbelievable  outcomes and consequences as an action will bring multiple or infinite reactions as no one human being react the same to an action,

We have cruelly discipline our actions and mannerism to stop any actions which will generate infinite consequences which hurt our inner peace and the peace of others, 

Namaste，

Be grateful

During my upbringing , my mum.always told me that when we drink water we have be grateful to the source of the water. In simple words , we have to be thankful to the people who have help us- i remembered this advise to this very day. But a few disappointment with people.time and again, have make me sceptical with this advise.

Maybe it is my poor judgement of people, i have betrayed ,baxkstabbed and left to dry but i jave no ill feelings to tuis oeople. They only acted to protecting themselves and promoting their interest. It is only a normal human instinct.

Maybe it is me that is the problem. I wonder.

Namaste.

A bumpy start to the Goat Year - 2015

A bumpy start to the Goat Year

On the eve's dinner , I eat too much nuts and mushroom and it tipper my uric level and caused a gout attack on my left leg joint. The paint starts on the first day of the new year , causing me difficulties in movement and feverish feelings. It was really a painful start.

On the first day night , my mirror on my front wind screen of my car broke off from the wind screen . I have to try fixing it up with taps but it holds up only temporary because it's weight . 

It was frustrating as I have to travel to KL the next day.

Nevertheless, I was successful I driving to KL using the left and right mirror. I was hopping mad as this was considered a major defects. By the way, my pain from my gout was till troubling me while I was driving to KL.

The trip to KL was not a present thing and the main purpose is to visit my cancer sicken sister in law. She looks frail and weak . The only thing we can do is to provide some company to her.

Suddenly , I realized that there was a lump on my lower gum. I think it was too much fried food and lack of sleep due to the gout pain in my joint. I have to drink lots of water to cool down my body and relief the lump.

On the third which is today, my gout and the lump in my gum is getting better . I wanted to sent  my car to the Nissan service centre to fix my mirror.

It took me one and half hour to the KL town to be told by the Nissan service supervisor that it cannot be fixed and for that five minutes , I have to drive another one and a half hour back to the place I stay in KL. It was because of the screwed up by the GPS . The GPS could be a problem but yet we cannot live without it.

Despite all these problems , I know that the remaining year will get better .

Namaste.

The year of the Goat -2015

The year of the Goat -2015

It will be a year to content with especially the fall of the crude oil price, the sluggish global economy, the lack of consumer spending , financial problems in certain countries across the world ie Russia and Greece.

However,there are some places or some people may enjoy good fortunes.

There  will not be 100% bad.

For those in bad times, you will have to endure it while those in good times, please enjoy it.  The good and bad fortunes will be moving around . For some , there are more good times and for some less. Just don't ask why? The explanations will be plentiful and my advise is to enjoy it or endure as it comes. Like I say life is uncertain while death is certain. 

This morning I heard of a colleague who just complain of severe stomach pain and passed away. I was talking to him recently when he was fetching me to the airport. He was joking with me and e had a few good laughs. It was a shocking news to me at this CNY.

Last Sunday, I have attended a wake for my sister's mother in law and she also have the same occurrence. She died of heart failure.

Even at this auspicious day, I have to pray for my deceased colleague. May he rest in peace.

For all of us, don't struggle with your past , let it go and live well. For me, I want to live to live for my remaining life and taking each day as a bonus. When things are less, we will appreciate it more.

Namaste.

A fake relationship

A fake relationship

It is just like ,Michael ,Borden's song " I say I love you but I lied",  Everything is just an acting and this is to promote oneself. No matter how sincere a person's offering of help and assistance ，the return is so fake ，

Once a person feeling is hurt , all the past good that you have done will be wiped off，The self ego takes over , the ego will unleash its destructive power and wipe off all the things that stand in its path，it will do anything to justify itself，

After the hurricane and everything settles down, there will be much regrets and damage control， what is done is done and there is no cure,

There is a saying " when you want to a thing 。you will have a thousand reasons to do it and when you don't want to a thing you will find a thousand reasons not to do it" . This is a realistic fact,

There is so much fakeness in this world and it is so sickening at times，so，，come what may，we have to face it as it comes，

Namaste

A day trip to KL

Trip to KL

The next seven days will be a busy week for me having to travel to Kuala Lumpur twice. Starting today is a day trip to attend a wake for my sister's mother in law.

Thinking of the few hours of driving makes me shiver with driving fever and having to sit a few hours in the car on a to and flo trip. It will take about 5 hours on each way.

Day driving for me if okay but driving will be a problem because age is catching up and by 9pm , my eyes will be very tired. I have brought my daughter with me and hopefully she will do the driving during the night.

My heart is heavy carrying with me the burden of driving my sister , brother and daughter safely on the trip. Luckily,

I managed persuade a nephew to follow and to drive back to Penang on the return leg.

When I arrived back in Penang , it was a relief and I was able to relax.

Hope all of you also have an event free Sunday.

Angkor Wat, cambodia

Angkor Wat , Cambodia.

Last nite I watch a documentary film about Angkor Wat and it really impressed me that the structure could survived the test of time. It was build about a thousand years. A heaven on earth.

It was build on a mangrove swarm floating above water. It is a wonder building a concrete structure floating on water. It was a rock structure with rocks on rocks without any cement.

The documentary show the way the rocks was transported along the water ways by rafts and drag by elephants and use of 500,000 man to build the whole structure over a period of 35 years to prepare for the burial of their King.

The structure have 5 arches rising above the concrete structure and pointing towards the sky. It was build in  an astronomic way to lift the spirit of their powerful King into heaven.

It was an amazing feat on how to keep the water level up to support the concrete floating structure during the dry season and not letting the structure sink to the water bed. 

Apart from the concrete structure , there was curving on the wall and how the rocks is used to rub against each other to keep a smooth surface and how the rocks was cut to hold each other up.

Many accidents could have happen and many people could have died in the process but the whole project is so meaningful , it keep the spirit of the people up and strongly motivated.

The whole completed structure was one of the 7 wonders  in the  world.

Namaste.

Coffee Island Penang : Bak Kut Teh

Coffee Island , Gurney Drive ,Penang

Last night，I had a family dinner at Coffee ,island and the restaurant serves Bak Kut Teh and other dishes . I have been to this place for breakfast once before and there is nothing much to shout about.

This time around , the food was acceptable as the taste was averagely good. There are much better place for the BKT in Penang . However, the parking was good and the cleanliness was there . The place was spacious and there was only 5 or 6 tables of customers .the price was also acceptable as this was a Saturday night.

This restaurant is for tourist or foreigners and local like me will not go there again for the next few months.

Namaste.

Praise for the Lord.

The praise of the lord

Yesterday , my daughter told me that if someone continued to praise the lord repeatedly but showing the good work of the lord through themselves , it will very annoying.'I fully agreed with her as I think that we can share our experience but we should not try to convince others unless we are role model for the lord.

The simple question is that can a thief talk about honesty . Of course, you can say that if the thief have repent and become a good person. But, to convinced that the person have changed it is not easy and it is not good to keep talking about the change only while the repetition is excessive.

We should not express our opinion too fast and try to should the good of the lord. One of my friend say that she is waiting for a good experience with the lord before she decides to convert to Christianity. We should not say that she is wrong and try to convince her to believe Christ through our experience and let the lord show his miracles. You have to believe before you can enjoy the blessing of the lord. Why can't it be the other way ? Let the lord shoe his presence or miracles before we accept him? Who are we to decide for others? 

The approach is not logical in the first

Place until someone is called by the lord.

Yes, repetitious praising of the lord is not wrong either but the goodness of the lord must be reflected through us before we can use his name. Otherwise, it is better to keep the belief through us.

Namaste.

Step by step

Step by step 

Life fly pass us and we also rush along with it . When we stop and look back , we realize that we have pass our youth and our prime. We start to have a little regrets and start to struggle with our past instead of living well in our remaining years.

I have been telling the younger generations that they should forget about the past and live well. I have repeatedly telling them this advise but when you are young and have plenty of time ahead , we often do not like to listen to this type of advise. They have not gone through it and they don't have taste of it. The young people believe themselves more and have all the confidence to live the way they like.

I have gone through this experience before and believing that what I do is correct and is the best for me. The words from the elders is like the song in the wind. The wise words never sink in and  it just came in the right ear and out from the left.

We should let go of the past and move on despite the past creep into our thoughts again and again . What is done is done and we can go back but to live one.  If we dwell so much in our past, where do we have the time to live into the future.

Lets live the day well and enjoy all the moments and take life head on  step by step. Don't hurry through.

Namaste.
