Accept and Equal

I've juz read a blog post on kennysia.com, just some joke he found and posted to share with his readers.
The joke relates some of the major religions in the world with 'shit'...

Ok, it doesn't sound right, nor does it sound funny.
Seriously, i don't really find this joke funny or amusing, but what the hell, it is just a joke, meant for ppl who find this joke funny and have a good laugh.
The 3rd line of the list of religions was censored though.
Let's c... Buddhism was there, Taoism was there, Hinduism was there, Catholicism was there...
What went missing? Pandai-pandai lar..

Some major battle started in the comments part....
Some ppl said that he is being insensitive, ignorant;
but some supported him n said it was juz meant for a laugh etc...
Seriously, WHAT THE F**K??!
A battle started bcoz of a joke? (kinda lousy joke though)
Get a life ppl!

To me, there can never be any absolute right or wrong in religions...
The religion was passed down by some great wise man or prophets or priests or monks or whoever from the past...
Some things are written in a book, a scroll or any form of a physical object,
some are passed through words of mouth..
In the past few thousand years, the information that has reached us may have been modified for countless time deliberately or unintentionally. No one can be sure.
The things they have written in the past may not be suitable to apply in today's society anymore..
The things they have written might have been interpreted in different ways by different ppl...
Some local culture might have been blended into the religion etc..
(The list above is not exhaustive)

All these factors have contributed to the creation of a diversified world (of religions) today...
Neither Christianity or Islam or Buddhism are universal around the world,
all of them have their own religious denominations which somehow differ in some of their practices or beliefs....
Why is it so? Probably because men don't have enough wisdom to understand the messages that God(s) wanted to convey....
So, men interpreted the words of God(s) according to what they believe is right...

I'm not a religious person and i probably still have a lot to learn about the major religions all around the world, and you probably think that i have no right or wisdom to judge any of the religions. You are right, I'm not here to judge, I'm just expressing my feeling towards some of the religious issues which i think is absolutely nonsensical and ridiculous.

I mean come on, no body can claim that their religion is superior to other religions; who are you to make that proclaimation? Who are you to judge? You and I are both men, just human, you are not God, and you don't do things in the name of God without confirmation that this is God's will. And who are you to forcefully put your beliefs on other non-believers? You don't like to eat broccoli doesn't mean that other ppl can't eat broccoli... I hate ppl who tried to take advantage on God's name to take matters in their own hands. If there is a hell, these ppl will burn in hell. Religions are supposed to make ppl better, conforming to the standards set by God Himself...
I seriously think something is wrong when a religion is used to provoke ppl to kill others and to spread hatred... What happened to love and peace? What happened to tolerance and harmony?
Does skin colour really matters? Does difference in beliefs really matters? Why can't we accept another person with soul like us, only with different thoughts? Sighs....

I probably think too much, no one has ever solve the problem the existance of constant disputes among mankind, n i doubt it can be solved in anyway. It's juz in our blood, our primitive instinct: to differentiate, eliminate threats and dominate. I don't like that, we are all human, y differentiate each other?

Anyway, what i really hope to c is Malaysia as a better place to live where ppl can accept each other's difference, not juz TOLERATE, but ACCEPT the differences between the population. Well it's already a fact that God made u a Malay, God made u a Chinese, God made u an Indian, we hv different skin colour, and different religion. But so what? Aren't u a Malaysian? We live on the same piece of land and drink the same source of water, eat the same kind of rice... What makes us so different then? The moral of the story is: It doesn't matter what race you are, we are all Malaysians. As Malaysians, we should all be treated as Malaysians, and we should all contribute equally to the advancement of our country. The keywords are ACCEPT and EQUAL. Sounds simple, but look at Malaysia now... Sighs... Can my generation make a difference in the future? Can we break the barriers and make Malaysia a better place?

Snow during spring?

When you hear birds chirping and you see flowers blooming, u know spring is here...
It is a wonderful experience to have tasted the seasonal changes here in UK.
The changes of climate in Glasgow is considered mild compared to some other places in UK itself and some countries with 4 seasons...

Glasgow never gets too hot, n it wouldn't get too cold as well...
The only bad thing is that the wind is always strong n icy, n the sky is covered with dark clouds most of the time....

Winter had long gone, and i thought i would not c snow again...
but who would have guessed, snow in March!
It's spring already and today had been a cold day n it snowed for the whole evening!
The place is covered with snow again...
It would b a perfect playground if more snow falls tomorrow...
1 whole day of snow! Hurrah!

But what's wrong with the weather here? It's spring d!
Global warming? No idea..
Juz wanna enjoy the short snow tomorrow..

Bullet-Proof Monk

After keeping my hair for months (no particular reason, just lazy to go and cut n don wanna cut my hair so fast),
I decided to go for a hair cut 3 days ago,
at a barber shop down High Street...

I've asked for a 'short and spiky' hairstyle,
the next thing i knew, is this

Ok, my hsemates laughed and laughed non stop when they 1st saw me...
They said i look like Chow Yun Fatt, in the 'Bullet-Proof Monk'.
Indeed...

Now i look like a monk, a prisoner, a People's Liberation Army, and a retard...
sighs... so, this is how i define a Scottish 'short and spiky' hairstyle.


Me with my badly photoshoped Bullet-Proof Monk

Congrats

Congratulations on your graduation!

Hehe, although im not there for your convo,
i hope everything goes smooth today,
N hope u had a nice day!

3rd Anniversary

Today is our 3rd anniversary...
Well i'm sure glad that these 3 years have been wonderful...
No dramas, no conflicts.. (well no major conflicts at least)

N the best thing is that we still love each other,
n remain faithful to each other...

At this era, love to some ppl is nothing more than a penny...
It can be easily displaced by other materialistic stuff;
N some ppl do not know how to separate love and sex..
sex is not equal to love and vice versa.

I'm grateful that i found a person better than i've ever imagined
It's not tht she's perfect, without any flaws,
it's juz tht i felt tht she's the right person for me,
some1 who suits me, some1 who understands me n noes wat i wan...
n i like all the things about her,
even her silly thoughts n laziness hehe...

I hv a feeling that the 3rd year that we've been together is only a beginning,
we still hv a very long way to go 10 yrs, 20 yrs n so on...
although forever n ever sounds like a fairytale today,
but fingers crossed, i hope to be with her forever n ever...

HAPPY 3rd ANNIVERSARY my dear....
Love you, always.

Disney cartoons

The ad for Disney's cartoon Mulan showing on TV this coming Sunday reminds me of all the splendid cartoons produced by Disney....

As a result, i searched and listened to the theme song of some of my favourite cartoons in youtube...
What good songs they are...
What good old memories with these cartoons....

I still remember that Lion King was the 1st movie i've watched in the cinema...
The cinema was long gone, but the story is still as good as it was to me when i was 8...
Since then i've watched the cartoons over and over again,
still they are good, and never failed to entertain me...

Can't remember when was the last time i watched these cartoons,
but i sure wanna watch them again when i'm free...

Well this is not the whole list of Disney cartoons, juz the cartoons that i like. After turning course to produce 3D animations for so long, Disney is finally back with their new cartoon, Princess and the Frog. Although it's a cartoon, although it's target audience are children, although i'm goin to be 24, i don't mind watchin it, for i still have a pure heart of childishness ha! Well it better be nice though, hehe...

I never knew cartoons will be the motivation for me to write a blog.. My Paris trip post had been suspended indefinitely in the draft box due to my laziness...

OK, that's all for now... The ladies send their regards to you.

Dedicated to you

I feel quite bad, coz I'm not there with you during this hard time...
When u truly need some1 to be there...

But at the same time I feel very proud of u....
U manage to get offers from most companies that u applied for,
U manage to go for interviews by urself,
U manage to find a job that u desire with your own might,
U go around that area alone to find a place to stay,
U travel around alone to find the route to work...

What more can I say,
U've done all this by urself without me being there...
well i've always knew that u r a capable girl,
still, i feel very impressed with u my dear..

Now u need to b a strong girl,
wait for me, when i'm bck, very soon,
i'll give u watever u've missed for the past whole year...
i'll pamper u like a princess ok?
PROMISE

Love you always... muakz
