Why we see colours?
Why we categorize people by their race's economy?
Why should there be the term, "Loser"?
You know. All of them are within our blood. We do all these because we learned from somebody, but don't you agree these should change?
All these stereotyping will only hurt people. They bring no good. I say that this is some kind of People-phobia disease.
I was not so far from this disease once upon a time. Although until now, since my primary school I have more Chinese friends than Indian friends, and infact of all races, I still saw them as some kind of threat. My elders, still in the fancied-fear of the May 13 incident, installed me viruses of, "Beware of other race" into my 'hard-disk', and for that I sometimes have labelled my friends, "Chinese are cheaters", "Malays are lazy" and "East Malaysian are Malays too and therefore they are also lazy people."
This is what my thinking was until I learned the meaning of the word, 'Catholic'. Catholic is not just the term we use to indentify a group of Christians but it also has a meaning. The word Catholic taken from Greek word, Katholikos, also means "throughout the world" or "Universal". At that time, I realized that I belong to the whole world and not just to one race. And I was also trying to suit the word 'Universal' to my name which also means, 'flame of love'. It suits well. Love is universal. And flame of love? Wow!
It only takes love to see people beyond colour, beyond their economy, beyond their personality. And infact, my third point, "Why should there be the term, "Loser"?", is not only about personality but also about race. Sometimes we see or label some race as 'lazy'. "These people not like us. Hardworkers." Or sometimes, "We shouldn't do business with these people. They are not good in business"
In my view, no race is hardworking or good in business. All these are born from our attitudes. In this world, the billionaires and millionaires are mixed with all kind of races. Some earned them, and some inherit them from their fathers. So. Not even all the billionaires and millionaires are harworkers or good business-persons. It's all in the attitude. And infact, there are also some people who are happy with their finance although they are not millionaires. So. If you are not billionaire or millionaire also does not mean that you are lazy or 'loser'
Love is the key. Stand united.

Behold Your Future
Behold your future. A questionnaire best describes your marital status.
A. Single
B. Married
C. Other
D. Refused
The first and second options are logical enough but, what would qualify 'Other'? And why do people wanted to know whether we'd been 'Refused' or not? Haiz..
Referring to the experiment did by a narrator of The Sun, he distributed this questionnaire to some people in a bar. Five minutes later all have answered except an elderly man who was still answering.
Some answered the first and second options. After a few minutes, the elderly man finally handed his paper. He had ticked 'Other'. So the narrator asked him, "But what do you mean by that? Are you married or not?".
He replied, "I had to thick 'Other' because my answer to that question is Can't Remember."
During the survey, one doleful young man has ticked 'Refused'. He then was curious about why do people wanted to know that he had been refused.
"Maybe they reckon guys like you are such total losers that they don't even want you on their spam list," said the narrator and he added this phrase in his article, 'Life is hard'.
Anyway, when I read this article, I found out that it refers mainly to men than women, since the narrator has mentioned that there are definitely two men and others remain as others without their genders stated. It also has triggered my curiosity of why women stay single. Since we have got a fair answer on why men stay single, what about women then?
Be noted that I'm not referring to all singles. Just the 'Refused' one.
They can't be falling under the same category as men. Losers?! Sincerely I would like to know why they are single since many of them are still pretty. Not to make them laughing subjects but I would like to understand their reasons too.
For the girls who may not understand why some guys stay single, I could give an example of myself but it may not be the best one. Long story cut short, I met a girl; falls in love; was never accepted; felt so rejected and heart broken; was curious to know whether this is a love or a crush and hoping it is a crush; tried to open my heart to another girl; but still can't forget her; spoiled the beautiful friendship between her and me; and still seeking for forgiveness from her.
I went through all these heart-aching moments and still hoping her forgiveness. At one time I finally accepted that she is not for me. I may not open my heart to any other girl forever. Nobody has stolen my heart at the first sight like she did but, 'Unconditional Love' could still exist in a friendship.

The Greatest is Love
Love is patient and kind;
Love is not jealous or boastful;
It is not arrogant or rude.
Love does not insist on its own ways;
It is not irritable or resentful;
It does not rejoice at wrong.
But rejoices in the right.
Love bears all things,
Believes all things,
Hopes all things,
Endures all things.
Love never ends...
So Faith, Hope, Love abide, these three;
But the greatest of these is
Love.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8, 13

The Moon Represents My Heart
You ask me how deep my love is for you,
How much I really love you...
My affection is real.
My love is real.
The moon represents my heart.
You ask me how deep my love is for you,
How much I really love you...
My affection does not waver,
My love will not change.
The moon represents my heart.
Just one soft kiss
is enough to move my heart.
A period of time when our affection was deep,
Until now makes me miss you.

Kau lah Ilhamku Selamanya
The first day I saw you,
I fell in love with you.
Oh how beautiful you are,
How beautiful you are.
I wondered what is your name,
I wondered where you are from,
I wondered when would I meet you again,
I wondered would you be my friend.
When we met again, I was very happy,
Oh how wonderful the day was,
I was shy to approach you, yet eager to talk to you,
But, you were the first one to say ‘Hi’ to me.
We became good friends, yet I wished you could be my girl,
But I was pretending that I have no interest on you,
Oh how I wish I could say, “I love you”,
But I was a coward.
One day, I had courage to tell you how I feel,
I had courage to tell you that, “I love you”,
But you politely rejected it,
And I accepted it with a great respect.
Now I know I should let you go,
But I still love you. I know I do,
How I wish if you have said, “Yes” that time,
But, I must respect your choice.
I hope that you will meet someone very special,
I wish that you would accept me as a good friend, at least,
I hope you don’t mind if I still love you.
I remembered the first day I met you,
The day, I fell in love with you,
You are still my inspiration. You are,
Kau lah Ilhamku.
