随想（一）Random (1)

当欣赏着路边稻田绿油油时
庆幸自己来对了时间
不然只看到一棵棵已收割的
枯萎枝梗
原来一切都有其因缘
因时、因地、因人...
常感恩，
好因、好果！

Was admiring the greenery of the paddy field...
Glad that I came at the right time...
Otherwise,
If the paddy has already been harvested,
I may just be seeing some dry stems ...
Everything has got its fate,
Right time, right place, right person...
Always appreciate,
Good deed with good returns!

Self-centered

Recently, I went to a restaurant in Kota Damansara for some nyonya food, to my surprise, these bottles were lying there for decoration.

I didn't see these type of bottles for ages!

I used to carry it around my father's coffee stall to serve the customer.

It gave me tones of memories...

I think back how I worked in the coffee stall...
And then I broke the bottle once...
The broken glass flew and cut me, leaving a scar on my arm until now.

I was so small, maybe about 5 years old only.
My parent didn't bother about my bleeding arm, just whacked me for breaking the bottle...

I used to share this story and many other of my childhood stories with others, not to show off but to encourage people to be tough in life.

But then I realized, no matter how I put the story into words, it cannot express my experience fully, and better still, people are not interested with my stories!!!

Most people only want to express themselves and focus on stuff that is related or important to them...

They don't really bother much about others.
They focus on their own enjoyment, needs and desires most of the time.

Therefore, most people are self-centered.

Don't you agree?

Bonding

Before there was any laptop...

He used to date her out,
Even just to sit at any roadside store,
they could chat from sunset to dawn..
Endless of topics to share.

When their world has only TV...
He would hug her tight on the bed and watch movie together...
Until both fell asleep together,
and let the TV watched them..

Before there was any smart phone...

He will text her every 5 minutes.
And she will read his messages again and again, feeling sweet and warm in the heart, for getting all his attention and love.

Before there were Facebook or blog...
He will always think of how to spend time with her..
Maybe go for a walk at night, counting stars and listen to the crickets playing their orchestra...
By just holding hands, it was sweet enough to made them smile in their dream.

When time goes by,
Things changed...

No longer everyday heart to heart touch...

He has his own world,
She has her smart phone to play with..

He doesn't realize that,
he has loss his passion in spending time with her,
even though she is still waiting for him everyday and night.

Is he bored of being romantic?
Is there really such thing as shouldn't see each other everyday?

If yes, she would rather stay alone, than to suffer loneliness like this.
He is closed, but yet so far from her.

How nice if he could play with her...
Dance with her...
Look into her eyes...
Touch her...
Hold her and kiss her...
Feeling excited to see her...

Deep inside her, she knew that he is not that kind of romantic man...

Maybe she should just give up...
Maybe she should just cycle around the world, without him... Then being torture silently...

What time has done on them

 When I first heard people called me "Auntie!", I was shocked....

 My heart was young.

My mind was still in playing state.

But my look......

:S

I hope people stop comparing "now and then"....

Below pictures from all sources, comparing celebrities now and then...

Kind of sad, but there is something for us to learn.

No matter how much make up you put,

how much lipo suction you done,

how you try to walk with your back straight,

you cannot erase the trace of time on your physical body.

I hope people will stop emphasizing on their outer look...

Not so much la at least...

better build their moral and humanity......

Aging

Recently, I met up with my former student...

I have not seen this student for the past 3 years.

When we sat down, this student asked me: "Teacher, how come you look so old already?"

...

 

(This was my look when I was 6 years old)

Then,

I have another friend, who recently saw my picture..

And this friend was so shocked,

asked: "why do you look like gained weight?"

=.=

When all these people asked me these type of aging questions, have they ever thought of how they actually expect me to answer?

"Yes, I am old." .....?

"Yes, I am fat." ...... ?

Will this answer make them happy?

What do they actually want?

To hurt my feelings?

Or really out of concern?

 

(This was me with a younger look.)

The worst is E! News, always compare celebrities during their young days and old days looks.

What do they actually get? By laughing at the physical process....

People will surely get old and out of shape.

Why do people have to comment?

Why they never say: "Eh, you look so different as compare to when you were 5 years old! That time more cute!!!"

Please, this is natural process...

Some people are so lucky that they have a baby face, and forever slim body that no matter how much they ate, there will be no trace of fat.

If you belong to this category, congratulations!

But, please try to understand others.

 

 (A little old then.)

I am living in this physical body, this illusion world.

I will age too.

Please, whoever out there,

If you ever see me many years later,

please don't be shocked that I turned so "old",

turned so "fat",

and turned so "sick".

One day, I will have to die too.

 What remain on the stone is my young photo.

 With a  dead, old and rotten body in the grave.

Is physical shape really that important?

I won't bother to look young and slim.

I think, most importantly is that,

I must be wiser each day.

I should look wise and kind when I turn old.

Isn't it?

Keep my mouth shut

Today I learnt that not everyone is interested in my stories...

I have been torturing people's ears by telling them all sorts of my stories...

I thought I can give them some inspiration in life by sharing what I knew and what I experienced...

But, it is not as I thought..

So naive and stupid of me!

I must always remember to keep my mouth shut!

是非只因多开口
烦恼皆因强出头

How she did it?

Can anyone tell me how she take this type of picture?
