Filial Piety.
I'm sure most of us heard this before.

孝, to Confucius, is not merely blind loyalty to one's parents. More important than the norms of 孝 were the norms of 仁 and 義. For both him and Mencius, its a display of 仁 which was ideally applied in one's dealings with all elders, thus making it a general norm of inter-generational relations. In reality, however, 孝 was usually reserved for one's own parents and grandparents, and was often elevated above the notions of 仁 and 義.

孝 xiào - Filial
仁 rén - Benevolence
義 yì - Righteousness

In modern days, countless families no longer value this virtue anymore. While saying how much they love their elderly @ home, their action shows otherwise. Whereas some directly complain just how loathsome their elderly @ home is. For me, I love my grandmas but this one at home is really troublesome. Moving things around & always nagging endlessly. Gets on my nerves countless times. But every time, after cooling down, I would realise how lonely she actually is and how much she wanted to care for us. And that its not fair to her for us to always flare up at her.

Young people like us when talking about unconditional love, first thing that comes into mind... BGR! But if we take a step back and look at our parents and grandparents, they're the best at displaying unconditional love. Even when we resent them, they would never stop giving us their love. Because their love for us is pure, that they're able to continuously support us in our life from the beginning of our life till as long as they live.

So show your love and concern to your parents and grandparents. A simple touch, a simple smile, a small gesture is often all they need. Time do not wait for you.

Is it difficult to juggle b/w taking care of an elderly and your own activities? From my experience, I can tell you that this is hell of a challenge! But never ever EVER underestimate our own potential.

uh oh! haha.
no mood to do work!
and patrick brought his PS3 to our house yest n today!!
so i play play play.. hahaha and play some more.. =x

ISP countdown less than 2weeks left.
Oral Comm Presentation next tues.

lovely...

I've just cut my hair short yesterday or rather 2 days ago.
on sat to be exact.

last week, outside the visitor center, sonny spotted a pretty girl.
I told sonny (pretty) girls do not really turn me on anymore.
I sounded gay. maybe I am?
At least I think I still like girl(s)....?

Actually,
these are currently the least of my concerns.
I need to always stay focus on my work!
Diploma, BA (Hons), Masters.
I need to constantly remind myself.
Family, Work, Money.
I need to constantly remind myself.
Hopes, Dreams & Goals
I need to constantly remind myself.

I do not seek for fame and riches.
I do not need them.
I just do what is needed.
Things that need to be done, shall be done.
I let the rest fall into place as how they would.
I do not force things into place.
I let nature take it's course.

Things happened, happens for a reason.
There is no point in thinking over and over,
over something that cannot be undone.
Be slow to anger. Blames are useless.

ISP ISP ISP ISP!!!!!!

My Grandma...

My dad's mom. u might be wondering why i say that? just a while ago, i witness a very ridiculous thing. my grandma is having fever as i'm blogging here now. i called him to tell him that his mother is having a fever and ask wad am i suppose to do? he said see doctor, i ask which one. i ask if there is any 24hour clinic that i can bring her to. he say bring to TTSH.

My god that is the last place i would ever wan to be right now! I've yet to finish my homework and now my grandma play this stunt on me?

i told him that i couldn't afford the time right now, he shouted back "让她去死啦!" and without hesitation, he cut off the phone. wonderful wonderful dad i have. by the way, even before this ever happen, i've already lost all respect for him. he is just my father, a useless one in fact. nothing more than that. And to think why, I would, from time to time, only think of escaping from problems. so this is where my escaping genes came from!

Why am i now that the very least surprised? my my...

People take people forgranted. there is no difference b/w father son, mother son, friends or siblings. as long as you're a human, u will take things forgranted. Although we always tell each other not to take people or things forgranted, we never fail to NOT do what we preach.

Maybe the destruction of Human will coming sooner than we think.. =)
Enjoy your human life as long as you can!
Sooner or later, everything will reduce to nothing.

Just now i saw a van facing us,
parked in the middle of the road!
Hell of a excellent accident.

Complacency - a feeling of quiet pleasure or security, often while unaware of some potential danger, defect, or the like; self-satisfaction or smug satisfaction with an existing situation, condition, etc.

Assumption - the act of taking for granted or supposing.

Life is always unpredictable. Nobody knew what will ever happen next. Nothing will go 100% according to plans. Being complacent and making assumptions are the major factors to the downfall of man. I've been a victim of my own stupidity for numerous times. Making assumptions and thinking that i'm sure things will work out the way i pictured.

I know what i need to do.
Avoiding and running away solves nothing.
I realise life needs regular clean ups to keep myself in pace.
