Think of money


My lil boy was getting furious when neither daddy nor me answer to his queries. “I hate this family…” he shouted. Oopss…we stop talking and looked at him.

“You mean he thinks of money and not of his kids?”(Totally unexpected)

I have to quickly explain: “No, no…Daddy think of money so he can provide a better life for you and mei mei, he thinks of money so that he has all the money to get you games and Bayblade that you wanted.

Do you give money to beggars?

As I lay flat on my Yoga mat, images of beggars on a damp street of the Friday Pasar malam flashing in my mind. A mother with a one-year-old child on her lap, he was drinking milk while another toddler sitting right beside her. She was digging her foot the time I saw her. Further up, there is another dark and skinny old man lying on a thin layer of cardboard. He put his palm together to form the prayer sign to passerby for sympathy. Beside him, it was packets of drink given by kind soul. I was going to give each of them a dollar. A gentle voice whispered to me. By the time I came back from all shopping, I left a 50 ringgit note and a one ringgit note. As I was nearer to the old man, I told bb to pass the money to the old man. He did, dropping the one ringgit in his plastic container. The old man shakes his hand hard to thank us. I feel so bad for the man. But then on a second thought, could he be a drug addict waiting for his fix? The mother again, I was not willing to give awa
