Own Selfishness

A young lady was waiting for her flight in the boarding room of Changi Airport. As she would need to wait many hours, she decided to buy a book to spend her time. Moreover, She also bought a packet of cookies.

Then, she sat down in an armchair of the VIP room at the airport to rest and read in peace. Beside the armchair was where the packet of cookies lay. Suddenly, a man sat down in the next seat, opened his magazine and started reading. (so, the cookies is in the middle armchair)

When she took out the first cookie, the man took one also. Wondering, Surprised and felt irritated she ate her cookies but said nothing. She just thought: "What a nerve! If I was in bad mood I would punch him for daring!"

For each cookie she took, the man took one too. This was infuriating her but she didn't want to cause a scene. When only one cookie remained, she thought: "ah ha ha....What this abusive man going to do now?". Then, the man take out the last cookie from the bag, divided it into half and give her one-half.

WahPiang....! That was too much! She was very angry now! In a huff, she took her book, her things and stormed to the boarding gate. When she sat down at her seat inside the plane, she looked into her purse to put her eyeglasses and to her surprise, her packet of cookies was there, untouched and unopened!

Dong Dong Dong.........She felt so ashamed!! She realized that she was wrong....She had forgotten that her cookies were kept in her purse. The man had divided his cookies with her, without feeling angered or bitter...........while she had been very angry, thinking that she was dividing her cookies with him.

Unseen, Unknown But Exist

Recently watched a long-series known as “Beauty”, the movie show cast the life-span of a so-called spirit intermediary(靈媒). The title of the series really does not match leh.....

In ancient times, these spirit-intermediaries were referred using different terms. For those male spirit-intermediaries, they were named wizard while for female, they were known as witch. In religious study, the name evolves from sorcerer, medicine man, magician to Shamans.

Commonly, spirit-intermediary is someone whom has the ability to communicate with god, demons, spirits and etc. They are the bridge link of human with other supernatural being. Most of the time, they dispatch certain spirits and gods to drive out those trap in “our world”. Logically, they are also our home-psychiatrist that helps people to overcome all sort of difficulties in real life. Therefore, we basically grew up with them in our life indirectly.

However, it had never came across my mind that a spirit-intermediary might be forced into this “job” that he/she does not want to be involved with at all. But life has never been easy……

As I watch the series, I began to pity those spirit-intermediaries. Of course, there is always a minor group of them who pretend and lies for money. Well, in a group of saints, there is always one or two mole, the spoiler.

Nevertheless, the series is really good and help your brain grows. Besides learning about spirit-intermediary, it is also a series on determination, courage, family-bonds and patience on life.

One thing I hate about the series is the overwhelming crying scene……which is "common" for a korean series.

Happy New Year 2008

“Happy New Year!!” A greeting said and heard from every soul on the last day of December and during the first couple of weeks of January. Traditionally, on the night of New Year’s Eve, all my friends began reviewing what they had done for the whole year and commence on making New Year’s resolutions. Some of their resolutions include the promise to lose weight, quit smoking, earn more money or make more babies. Ha ha ha…..

Generally, the celebration of New Year is believed to be the oldest of all holidays. It was first observed in ancient Babylon about 4000 years ago. In the years around 2000 BC, the Babylonian New Year began with the first New Moon (actually the first visible crescent) after the Vernal Equinox (first day of spring).

Watching all my friends mumbling beside me, I just smile………Questions forming into thick clouds on my mind…….How different can Year 2008 be? Will it be better? What other “adventure” are they up ahead? ^_^

To me, It is just another year …………
