Guan Yu, Justice, Honor and Righteousness - our basic characters

What is my message ? It just strikes me because I have seen so many shabby characters during the past few days. They are either sneaky fellas who would stab your back as you turn or those CYA ( cover your ass) chaps who lacks back bones and balls to handle the issues and those lalang fellas who will flow with the wind and so many  unjust variations. I saw a movie advertisement on Guan Yu in the newspaper and it reminds me that nowadays, it is so difficult to find people of his calibre in these wacky generation. Everyone is for himself and one's survival is above all.

I have a statute of Guan Yu in my house  and it is facing the main door.  I hope he will chase away the devils and also shabby chaps. His face is stunt and firm with a long flowing beard.  I have briefly read his story and I admire is commitment and loyalty. Yes, loyalty to his sworn brothers and leaders. He fights without fear , he talks when he is asked or when necessary and he is fair in his judgement. He is bold and have big balls and is very courageous when in  battle. We can totally rely on him for executing the task assigned to him.

Yes, in business or in any business organization, we need such fellas who is a team player without any malice. We do not want to play water polo while our team mates try to pull off our swimming trunk under the water. The feeling is despair and how can we win the battle or the game. These lowly chaps looks supportive above the water while they play our "balls" under the water. It would be better to expose them and show them we know their true colours above the water and get rid of them once and for all if we have the say.  But, if we don't have the say, we will need to bite our lips and find away to counter their hidden hands. Maybe, we should consider cutting their hands off or play the game with less players. This counter-productive and evil minded bastards should be told to behave themselves  and we should try to stand at the back of them to protect our ass.

If we can change the situation, we should do it and chase this lowly characters off but it is not, beware and behold and the necessary precaution to protect ourselves and keep our eyes open wide. There is saying " There is a knife hiding behind the smile ". We should try to recognize this type of smile and exposure them. There are people who pray to Guan Yu to protect them but this is too superstitious and hopeful. We need bigger balls to stand up to them and be mindful towards them. Righteousness will prevail in the end as darkness only prevails when there is no light. So, let there be light and these shadows or shadowy characters will disappear.

Namaste.
