Does your man grow grumpier as he gets older?

Does your man grow grumpier as he gets older? A friend shared with me over lunch table that her brother-in-law criticise a lot lately, very judgemental and angry. Daily conversations will be filled with petty argument. This is nothing new to me as I have one who reacted that way at home. Sometimes a good day can turn awfully bad due to very minor issue and if I tried arguing, I will get all kinds of crude remarks. So I choose to keep quiet with hope that things will get better and it does get better sometimes but not all the time.

Women has PMS, men has their “WIND” too when they are stress with responsibilities in life. I believe everyone has stress, some people handle it better but some don’t. It also depends on one’s life encounters. Imagine dealing with a stressful Hainanese man...

Everyone has his/her own burdens of life, including me. However, I always believe that it's not the load that breaks us down, it's the way we carry it.

Burdens become light when cheerfully borne. ;)

Dinner. Stranger.

LAST NIGHT was MIL’s birthday. We went for a simple dinner at Mt. Kiara, a Taiwanese restaurant. Bb was excited to be out as usual, trying to show off how to operate his Bob the Builder’s bottle to uncle Jo, Bil. He has been sipping water from that bottle ever since daddy purchased it, which is good, no more bottles in public. He also created rapport with waiter and waitresses there. There was a fat uncle got so fond of him and present-ed him a chopstick holder. (Like that also can. Hah!) Bb showed it to me, it was in the shape of a Japanese koi fish. I told him to return it to uncle, Sri told me he returned but uncle insisted he kept it. UR! Okay! “Well, then you can keep it” I told him. Later, he came to me telling he was scared. I asked him why, he told me the BIG BIG uncle scary. Actually according to Sri, that uncle wanted to carry him, he got scared. Mil told me this - Once a stranger offer to carry bb, he wanted to go with stranger, mil threatened him that if he goes, he will ne

Story about Nezha 哪吒

Nezha has been a beloved Chinese folklore hero for centuries. According to Mythopedia, 哪吒 the Chinese myth is based off of the Hindu god, Nalakuvara ( 那羅鳩婆羅 .) I remembered, he was a mischievous boy with mighty powers and caused trouble all the time. https://youtu.be/QyPYkeRdwDQ

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
