What is happening?

It really doesn't matter if you are agnotic or atheist, just believe that there is someone up there beyond our comprehension, that someone up there who has given us the conscience to do the right thing and most of all "not to kill " another man, another woman or another child.

Again, it should not bother you, if someone tells you that the earth is not created by someone one up there but it was all because of a "Big Bang" but then again we must concede that someone up there who holds the power to ignite the "Big Bang" is something we can't fathom, therefore stoically we should conclude that there is Someone Up There.

Of late, i really hate reading my morning newspapers, what greet me in the front page is not news of joy but instead they carry news of murder and more murders. The news that depict the most gruesome, heinous crime a man can commit.

Is is because man has divorced himself from guilt feeling, greed, shame and thought that he could play God or beyond God that man can do what he likes for his own self interest? Or is it because man is so comsumed by his own insatiable desires that there is no limit to it and he must do what it takes even at the expense of others?

Suddenly, i feel like singing one of Ann Murray's song that goes something like this," Take this heart, give it to the charity, take this heart, give it to the Salvation Army, i don't think i need it anymore"

I am sick of all this and guess what here in my state, there is news that two teen boys committed suicide by jumping from high rise building on a same day.

My lovely wife is on Medical Leave today and i feel like going back to her now and giving her a big hug and telling her how much i love her.

See you guys on Friday, tomorrow is a holiday, go and spread some love and joy around.

P/S : We can make a difference with the little we do

  2. I don't remember where i got this saying but I do agree with it..

    "I rather live my life believing that there is God, and in the end when I die, found out there is none, rather than the other way round."

  3. Hi Eugene... it makes us even more sick when news that covers the murder of a millionaire gets front page news a few consecutive days, therefore sensationalizing the crime and glorifying the murderers. That's journalism!!!!

    It really doesn't matter if one is an atheist or a person who prays five times a day or goes to church diligently each week. The bottom line is, if you don't do good, no matter how many often you pray will never make you good.

    Angeline said that the world has changed. True... so let's pray (and really mean it) that this change will be for the better.

  7. Yes, I browsed through the online newspapers this morning...and I felt exactly the same way. In response to that, I shared a song on Facebook - Anne Murray's "A little good news". We..."sure could use a little good news today!"

  14. I read that too last night. I understand how you feel when you read it. I felt even shocked in one evening, when I read the latest Malaysia news in Chinapress, there were 4 rape cases on the same day.
