K i was just reading my old blog.
I remembered about this story.
It was something i really felt about.
It got many of u to talk to me about it.
Just look at it again ya.
Alrite, last nite after Darryl and Shaun studied wif me in da library, tey wanted to go to Jacks place so they crossed da road wif me to take a bus. Usually they dont haf 2 cross da road.
K at the bus stop, I saw an elderly Malay man standing, beside him I saw 3 cans of tiger beer and a bottle of wine. He looked rather tipsy and I could c that he hardly had any balance. All three of us juz looked at him and I was telling maself, k here is another drunk man!.
Then the man pulled out this small red pouch. He then sat at the bus stop. He pulled out an entire collection of power rangers toys and a toy motorbike from da pouch. Then he started playing wif the toys and u know he seemed to be in a world of his own. By now I was rather sure that he was a normal person and was mentally sane cuz he did not shout anything but was juz drunk and playing wif toys.
Then Shaun pieced out the jig saws in ma head. He said I guess this man must haf gotten kicked out of his house by his grand son and maybe he is now playing wif the toys he bought for the grand son
This was all I heard Shaun say and I went blank. I stared at him blankly and ma ears could not hear nomore, I felt really uncomfy and juz felt down.
Then Shaun and Darryl went off in da bus. I was still waiting for ma bus, no 61. Then I saw da man taking his shirt off as though he was getting ready to sleep there. He started packing da toys and juz sat there.
Ma bus came and da driver asked me, Wha! Got show huh? I said ya he is drunk
but to me he seemed more than juz a drunk man. I mean he had juz 3 cans and some wine and he is high which shows he doesnt drink usually. Further more he was a malay thus making the possibilities of him drinking much less. Throughout ma bus journey I was thinking abt what shaun said and the ideas that I got abt the man and I juz felt what Shaun said really could haf made sense. Ma instincts told me 2 juz assume what shaun said. And from then I felt I gotta write this in ma blog.
Guys no matter who our parents are we gotta love em and take care of em no matter what their situation is. Well u may say, whats up wif noj? Who does he think he is? Well I am juz writing ma mind here. I am now in a bus typing this on ma way home wif the song superman ringing in ma ears through ma ear plugs.
K I dont wanna side track, hey no matter how rich, poor, literate and all our parents are, I think its our duty to take care of em and respect em while they are here for us. Lets not abandon em or put em in folks homes however old they are, cuz they never abandoned us. They may not be able 2 give ya luxury but tell urself look these are the pple that haf brought me up all these days and they are here for me.
Trust me guys no matter who u find most important in your life, remember they LOVE ya a lot no matter what they may say. Lets not follow eminem and try to screw our parents cuz juz for ur info he claims he hates his mum juz for publicity but actually his mom lives wif him and takes care of his kid!!!
And finally as the hindu saying goes, matha, peetha, guru, theivam which means respect ur mom, dad, teacher and god in this order. And ofcourse parents are up there cuz they bare the pain and share the joy we give em.
K I dont know y but I felt I ought 2 write abt this. I am sorrie if u guys feel its outta context. I wanna take this time to say Acha and Amma I LOVE U 2 and thanks for always being there k. K GUYS NOW BACK 2 MUGGING FOR MEDISOC!!!
