What I wrote I almost forget

Forgetfulness cannot be blamed if one fails to remember. It's normal to forget. But it's not normal for us to forget important events like birthdays of family members and when we left college. Here's something I wrote last year which I almost forgot.

What books did to the minds, the internet has taken its place to infiltrate your thoughts. Chairman Mao Tse Tung wrote his thoughts in a book that materialized in modern China today. The book is forgotten, the internet creeps in. Bill Gates turned the internet around so fast that information can now be retrieved with a click. The whole world went crazy, a phenomenal effect! It has indeed changed people and the way they think. How blessed we are and how disastrous too to mankind. Osama bin Laden uses the internet when trying to match the power and might of the Americans. It produced a lethal effect in the 9/11 attack.

Today, no government can function smoothly without the communicative prowess of the internet. If the North Korean regime keeps it away from their people making the whole world laugh in disgust, it would not take long for the internet to break the iron curtain.

Ironically, we now got such stuff as internet sex, internet wedding, internet medicine, you name it, you have it! Even smell is dished out through internet..what a wonder in the atoms? It is dictating the way people think the world over. Its power is enormous, we are made of it, trillions...wow, read my thoughts!

I went back with my thoughts and knew this would be interesting stuff. The ATOMS, what rubbish to say that they could be internet savvy, but we really don't know, do we?

My thoughts about the EGO

Are we not just as egoistic ourselves when we called others "egoists"? Of course, that includes me, I am not running from this fact that I am not one. We all are, in one way or another.



The EGO is a false center, it is plastic. Everyone is an egoist although not born with it but into it. The EGO is the abstract part of us acquired from the moment we realize that existence is about fear and survival. Children learn about fear and survival once they are in kindergartens.

All of us have 2 common centers but only a handful would have the 3rd center, let’s called it center numbers 1, 2 and 3, the 1 is you with society and the fear that you will not be accepted by others, and the 2 is how you want to be regardless of what society thinks of you. In both centers 1 and 2, you are carrying some fear, the fear of what society may take you to be and the fear of self and failure to self. Most of us exist in these 2 orders or centers, you with society looking for acceptance and you against society. Only a few will achieve the 3rd order, a nameless center, which is you with your conscience, your soul, the truth, you and God.

If you have other views, that's fine with me..why not? The beauty of having egos are they spur you on, they motivate you, they make you want to create, to develop to make your dreams come true. The bad thing is you may hurt others with it.

Busy...that's the word from me

Busy...that's the word, busy, I have been kept busy by lecturing, holidaying and meekly, politics. I owed my self an apology and I felt refreshed again being able to find time to update my blog tonight.

The current political squabble in the Sarawak Progressive Democratic Party (SPDP) of which I am a Divisional Chairman in the state constituency of SENADIN, Miri is worrisome for many in the party. It's an unhealthy development, a disadvantage for the BN in Sarawak and surely not helping the 1Malaysia many of us are trying to foster. With all due respect to them, our state leaders from within the fold should realize that no amount of public outcry of who's right or who's wrong could mend the rift that has already surfaced over just a matter of a week. Damage has been done and it will take time for it to be mended and rebuilt.

Of course, political foes fighting from within is not at all new and unheard of. This is politics, a right wing and a left wing is common. MCA has its share of such conflicts and certainly UMNO has some good history of infighting too when Tengku Razaliegh failed in his bid to take over the party.

The next few weeks will be an interesting time. The wisdom of the President Datuk Mawan must not be underrated. He will I am sure be able to calm the storm.
