Siblings

Like how we watch on the television, where little brothers irritate their big sister/brother and vice versa. Well not all of them are true but statistics show that it is...=.= what am I saying?
Anyway, since I usually see the little ones bullying their elder brothers/sister, when I see two siblings get along, maybe in a supermarket, on the street, wherever, I am just touched. Because I see it as such a precious bond that cannot be broken.
But those who do not usually get along, well, to my observation, it is nobody's fault here. I know, used to be the little one and I have an elder brother by 11 years. So why we always get on our sibling's nerves? You see what we seek is for our brother/sister to entertain us, play with us, talk with us and when they do not we mess with them till we get their attention. The elder ones usually get mad but to the " young-lings " , they feel it is worth it. That is why and that is what I think the reason is.
It is normal, not to say not really getting along is bad. This is just a small part of ones relationship with family. But I just am so amazed with God to create the community called family. The Malay saying goes " air dicincang tidak akan putus ". It means that no matter how much we fight, we will reconcile one way or another. When I see two siblings fight be it sister or brother, I will smile out of joy. Hey Hey! don't misunderstand ! hehehe. I smile because when I see them I see deep down I can sense the love they have for each other. I imagine one day when one is in trouble the other will help. That is why I smile.

My Testimony(My Grandmother)

So lately I haven't been updating my blog. I'll tell you why now. After my finals, I had to go to Penang, to visit my ill grandmother. My mother was pestering me and my brother to hurry back afraid she would not make it. My friends could see it in my face that I was troubled. So I did go to Penang with my friends on one Sunday morning. BTW, my grandmother suffered from cancer of the pancreas. Seeing my grandmother... I was in shock, she was so frail and thin. I ask her how was she and she replied " What do you think?" . I said " You look, very thin grandma" and she nodded. She was really weak. The next day she could not speak at all. She had no energy to open her eyes or even utter a word, just moan. My mother was taking care of her for the pass three weeks. I came and helped her out. My mum was teaching me how to take care of her and asked me to do it. Amazingly my grandmother was recovering. The next day she could talk. After that she could read the new...

Relationships are worth restoring

Just to be clear, when I said relationships I did not limit myself to just boyfriend/girlfriend but to every kind of possible relationships in this world. Relationships are always worth restoring. They are what matters most in life. Relationship with God,friends, siblings, with your boss, parents, soul mate, wife, children, etc. They build bridges between each other. If your live as a hermit, live within the shadows, think your are better off alone, then you wont grow. We can only grow in a community where we learn from our mistakes, humble ourselves,....wait getting off point here. Life is all about love. Love is the most powerful thing. We should learn how to love . For me, I would like to be in the ministry of restoring relationships. For those who do not know what ministry means, it means some kind of governing body or main focus in a job. For this case, governing body for restoring relationships. They are worth restoring because every relationship hold opportunities in greatness...

Be silent, and listen

What does it mean to wait, be silent , and listen?   Before I begin, I also be silent and think, whether this would bore you readers .....and then I continue XP  The words silent and listen are usually used in a parallel manner if you noticed. Doing these three things needs patience. There is always a time to be silent and a time to speak . One cannot listen if they are not silent. Sometimes, wisdom does not come from telling people what you know, showing them you are right, proving them wrong, later on to feel all high and mighty. Sometimes wisdom also means to be silent, hear them out, listen to all their wrongs and rights and taking it in. The right time will come to say the right words. Ever heard of.. ." It was the right thing to say, but wrong time to do it"? Yeah it is as you have read it. One can cause unfavourable damage if they keep speaking but on the other hand, one can lose opportunities when they become silent at times when they are needed to be heard. ...
