Festival

posted by ryan

Festival is an event staged by local community centers on the unique aspect of the community.

There are many types of festivals across the globe, from religious to arts, food, entertainment and seasonal festivals. The most talked about regardless of nationality will be the various religious festivals of respective countries.

Time and time again, religious festivals have being board cast on television shows numerous times and showing different types of religious cultures and festivals. Christianity and Buddhism are the most commonly featured on the media due to the yearly festival across the world.

Media telecast of religious festivals is to neither a good nor bad thing, it’s just another piece of news and allow people to get updates for people to follow up with.

Buddhism has quite a number of religious festivals that has being shown on television and in other media channels. With its deep roots and influence from all around South-East Asia, all the way from China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Iran, Afghanistan, India, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, Myanmar and in Singapore. With different religious practice and worshiping of different gods, generally we are all from the same roots, Buddhism just that our way of celebrating festivals might deter from among ourselves.

The scale and magnitude of how a country practice their own religious goes to show how united they are actually. I’m not trying to promote any religion here, but just that I was watching a Chinese show this afternoon and it help me understand the importance of culture, generations, unity,

Celebrating festivals is good way to build bonding, unity and getting to know one another of the same belief. Example like what I watched in the show, the dragon boat festival also known as the 端午節(Duan Wu Jie) is a good way to let people among the community interact with one another.

Dragon boat festival is especially successful in this aspect. Due to the involvement of lots of people, competition among respective dragon boat teams (different communities pit against each other) thus getting to know and understand respective cultures thus encouraging mutual understanding.

With a common celebration, it is not limited to a small group but it is done a big scale. Making of the dumplings in the kitchen increase the family bonding when the cook, and the assistances on a small scale.

Within a community, the village will work towards preparation for the dragon boat festival, all the festive practice; beliefs will be passed down to the next generations with participation and involvements thus strengthening the bonding among them.

Beyond community level, they cheer each of their own community to spur each other community to fight for the dragon boat championship thus increasing the tolerance for other communities with a common goal united as one.

Organizing a festival is hard-work but the rewards far exceed the cost of the festival strengthening themselves with their own country’s identity, culture and unity.

That is something which we all can learn from, to understand each other’s religion and practice instead of condemning and trying to stir up conflicts which results in only more signs of trouble etc.

Tolerance and mutual understanding is the way which we all should work towards together as a whole. Like wise in business, instead of trying to cut each other’s throat with reducing profits, getting into a price war competition, why not work together, spilt profits, and have win-win situation?

At times, when I read and watch news and getting to know businesses trying to fight for a bigger slice, it just amuse me to know how much they lack in terms of mutual respect and cooperation.

Most businesses outside are just dumb in my personal perspective, why can’t they learn a simple thing like cooperation like the politicians, government, helping one another? Although it’s true that businesses are making much more money than politicians, but they are killing each other instead of helping one another.

Businessmen should instead learn from entrepreneurs who are successful than businessmen themselves.

Festival is the way to go, respect, tolerance, and understanding is needed to build a relationship and a mutual beneficial business for profits and not losses seeing red figures.

Breakup

posted by ryan

Breakup is to put an end to unpleasant relationship. It is the discontinuance of a relationship, called separation or divorce and termination. It could be marriage, friendship, employment and business partnership. It is to dump the other party for numerous reasons.

The most talked about breakup is nonetheless, Tiger Woods scandal with multiple ladies from different professions ranging from models to porn stars and even getting ladies pregnant and subsequently going for abortion.

Tiger Woods scandal is an example which illustrates from multiple perspectives. First he is married, second his is a world known golfer who has made a brand out of themselves due to diligence, third, he has other golfers who supported him and fourth he has business relationship from reputable brands with Nike, Tag Heuer, Gillette and other brands.

In this example, the scandal first started by Tiger Woods escaping from his wife Elin chasing Tiger who than crashed his car and was sent to hospital. Back than it was only a simple family marriage issue.

Thanks to media exposure, it than evolved into business and employment issues, with brands and companies backing out from the endorsement deals, and his employment as a professional golfer comes to a temporary stop, his money keeps gushing out into the ladies he had affair with not forgetting Tiger using money to have Elin staying by his side. His billionaire status, I guess is back to multi-millionaire due to payments for keep the secrets to themselves, the day he comes back to golf will be the days he climb back up to be a billionaire.

Breakup can be a pleasant experience with the right respect during the relationship, care and concern for each other. In this case, we have one of the ladies Jamiee Grubbs apologizing to Elin on a website portal exclusive. Jamiee said she had no regrets, it is only when respect is felt in any relationships, than breakup will be a pleasant experience.

Tiger Wood scandal may not have any impact on our daily lives, but it can be a great teaching tool as a case study to learn from other people’s experiences.

To have a positive pleasant relationship, first start by respecting each other, be it in family, friends, boy-girl relationship or in business. Respect comes first. Honesty comes second followed by responsibility for one’s action comes third.

Management

posted by ryan

Relationship is an association of two or more people which is based on different purpose and bonding. It may be based on for business interactions, social commitments, interpersonal or intimate relationship.

Different purpose of relationship requires different methods of handling, and understanding how it works is the key to solving the root of the problems should it surface.

The root and basics of relationship management is to look at the difference between how a man and a woman handle relationship.

There is a common saying “Men can forget but they cannot forgive. Women can forgive but they cannot forget.”

During a courtship, there is both positive and negative behavior which we can learn from relationship. Relationship management is just like a business and it requires time, effort, commitment and collaboration from both parties to work.

In the process of the courtship, it is sweet, once the courtship is over and grow into a relationship before it evolve into a either a break-up or marriage followed by everlasting love if not separation followed by divorce.

The spectrum of transition of relationship is all about business transaction these days due to the change in culture and influences. Romance; love; commitment; responsibility; accountability ; management; operations; protection; expansion.  It is all about the cycle before it duplicates itself or it dies off.

Romance is sweet like an appetizer, a small dish to stimulate a desire for more.  It can be of in all flavors depending on the person’s character and personality. It is the selection of which appetizer is suitable for you like choosing a partner.

Once you take your pick, you start to taste it, the taste lingers in your mouth, either your taste buds accept it if not reject it. If you accept it, it starts to go inside, making you hungry wanting more increasing your appetite. It is the courtship whereby you want to consume it, but it just does not want you to know what the next dish is. With anticipation, the desire grows, like in a courtship, from hands to shoulders to waist, hips, kissing and other intimate actions translating romance into love.

Love is when you start to have the taste of the dish, and you ask for more, wanting the next dish to be served fast. Short light kiss becomes French-kissing and it proceeds further with hands into the picture. Like you start off with different breads, applying either butter or jam just simply hands and or with just a butter knife. As you progress, you start using tools to consume more and the tools get more, which is when intimacy increases and clothes start dropping piece by piece.

Commitment is when the main course get served, finally you see the dish in front of you, salivating, starts drooling and you can’t wait to consume the main dish. It is whereby clothes are completely removed; all you see in front of you is the naked body. Alluring, sexy with a sense of curiosity of how it will be like.

With a slice of cut on the meat, you put it into your mouth, its equivalent to making a commitment, a promise to your partner that you will stay by his/her side. Soon as you consume the main dish, you start to fell the slight fullness in your stomach. As foreplay moved into intercourse, the promise is made and commitment sets in.

Having finished the main course, the rest of the course can be predicted, with the delicious dish already served, whatever dish coming up next is just lighter in flavor then the main course which was just finished. Like after the intercourse, ejaculation sets in, satisfaction in both parties. The customer decides to stay till the end of the course, while the cook is happy that the customer enjoyed the main course.

With that, responsibility takes places. You will start discussing how nice the dish was previously, and perhaps next time your choice of dishes if you were to come back again. Similarly like how ladies like to hug their partners after it, lying on their partner’s chest or in the arms, looking into the eyes, smiling happily, chatting about the feelings during the intimate physical contact.

Accountability sets in soon after, like the dessert that’s coming up next, it can be of either hot or cold dessert to tantalize your taste buds usually ending with sweet desserts so the customer will come back for more. Like a happy couple resting in the comfort of each other, either one waking up slightly earlier to prepare breakfast for the other partner, leaving sweet memories and closing the chapter leaving wonderful and pleasant memories, allowing the couple to make plans for marriage.

Management is the bills of the whole set breakfast/lunch/dinner. Settling the bills, checking if the bill is right for any overcharging like a couple in bliss, planning for the next session with budgeting involved now.

Budgeting includes the promise and if the partner is responsible for his/her actions before a second and three set meal can be consumed together. Discussed wisely, the budget only gets sweet and larger with more commitments and responsibilities like choice of restaurant, if want to upgrade to a higher class restaurant paying for the service and ambience similarly to discussion of settling down for a family.

Operations is how the restaurant runs the after sales service, the methods which they will offer to give you reasons to patronize the restaurant or their service again. It is when the partner shows his/her attention, care and concern for each other to make it work and have the relationship running smoothly without any food scraps getting stuck in between the teeth.

Protection is whereby restaurants come up with new dishes, promotions to attract and retain their valued customers. This is when business rivals surface allowing the customers to chance to taste other recipes and dishes. This will be when partners come up with new tricks such as new image, choice of clothes, some teasing, and new positions and change of environment to entice their own partners to stay faithful and loyal to each other.

Expansion is when the business is doing well; restaurant owner decides to open another outlet via franchise model duplicating their success. It is whereby both partners planting and wants seeds to be planted in the farmlands. For males, it’s to get the female pregnant, for females, it is to get married and the cycle continues, this time on the baby inside the womb.

Transactions are happening everyday, every second, how you run the business and how much you profit depends on you and nobody else. Learn management skills, it is the skill that is applicable to anything and everything.

Have a profitable business and a happy marriage. =)

Association

posted by ryan

Association is an organization of people or plants with common purpose together under uniform environmental conditions working towards the same goal or objective. It is the alliance, an union of company, a force not to be reckon with when it forms together.

Animals associate themselves with fellow animals as well to help clean themselves especially in the ocean, sea and lakes. Sharks have small fishes swimming together helping themselves with the parasites on the skin of the sharks, whales have shell like organisms living on their body, while crocodiles have birds to help them with teeth cleaning.

Gangsters form together because each on their own, are people without the ability to complete any task on their own thus they form a gang, to bully the weak, get things done their way and fearing the powerful people with stronger backing example the police.

Aunties form together in markets to gossip in morning market session for breakfast before going to the wet market to buy food. In a group of aunties, they can get more discounts saving more money.

Smokers and drinkers are associated together and always seen around one another because they cannot miss out the company or one another enjoying the company.

Wealthy successful businessmen hang around together playing golf, closing business deals and helping one another earn more people.

Poor people are poor because they associate themselves with the wrong people. Rich successful businessmen associate themselves with even more successful people to help each other profit in different areas.

Whatever you seek and dream to be, you need to get associated with the right people who will help you build your dreams, visions and goals and other business ventures.

Make the right choice and do the right thing. Walk a path and associate with wealth builders and not demolisher who are money suckers and spendthrifts.

Bonding

posted by ryan

Bonding is a relationship between a parent and the offspring since the beginning inside the womb, sharing telepathy only possible between the baby and the mother connected by blood vessels physically for nine to ten months.

With birth, the baby than has new bonds with the father, grandparents, grandparents-in-laws and relatives as second line of bonding. Each and everyone get to bond with the baby via touch such as hugging, playing, and kissing of the baby.

Bonds are created and made possible with time from fostering children and establishing the friendship even among parents and their children to have even closer bonding tied by both blood and trust.

Family bonding is the first line of social defense followed by friends bonding, than the bonding and connection with the country and followed closely behind by physiological defense.

Social defense is to strengthen the bonding and connection which we all have among our own people who grow up on this small piece of land as compared to the world. We need to work together to help one another to deter and reduce the impact and influence foreigners have on us.

China sets a very good example in this aspect, social and psychological defense. China will do whatever it takes to greatly reduce the influence USA has on it’s internet presence which will corrupt the mind of the communists who practice to watch their personal behavior and not to be as open minded as USA, thus the huge extent of censoring Twitter, Facebook and strongly encouraging Baidu their home grown China internet search engine to flourish. Like the Chinese always say: 肥水不流外人田 “fei shui bu liu wai ren tian” which means better to benefit and help our own people than to help outsiders.

China has done an excellent job in that social defense, which should be encourage to minimize the influence on the mental on the weak minded people who get influenced easily, thus causing culture change, from wearing decent covered clothes to revealing boobs, butt cleavage clothes which is degrading when done wrongly and sends a wrong message.

Singapore being a multi-racial country has its fair share of difficulty trying to guard and maintain the social interest in local culture. Ghost festival, temple god celebration by the Chinese is becoming lesser popular as opposed to foreign culture. Religion will not be mention here to prevent the spark of racism.

But it’s obvious that which religion is fast becoming embraced by our locally born Singaporeans embracing the religion of foreign cultures and their practice. Look at China, while the world is in chaotic situation, they the global economy needs China to save the world despite Yuen being a low valued currency and is not as updated as Singapore. Unity is what China has done the Chinese proud; not forgetting one’s roots is what I strongly and firmly believe in.

The bonding that China nationals have versus Singapore nationals is a far cry and should be taking noticed of. Look at Taiwan, Singapore should follow and learn from Taiwan, not follow USA practice that’s killing our own culture practices and bowing USA as our fathers when our actual forefathers are from China and Malaysia.

Taiwan although being influenced like Singapore with foreigner’s presence by occupation due to war treaty, but the Chinese culture there is still as strong if not stronger than Singapore by leaps and bonds. Singapore has let the culture evolution slide and made way for foreign influence corrupting majority of the people’s minds.

Look at how Taiwan celebrate their Chinese temper culture, they have keep up with times, and to ensure that the local Taiwanese stay and stick to their own culture, they allow the temple related culture to evolve and have electric dance from the god representative, giving it a new feel and look, keeping up with the rock techno music industry while retaining their own values and cultures. With frequent festive celebrations monthly, it is deeply craved in their minds of the true origins so Singapore who has bowed down so much to foreign cultures, should take some time to relook at how to maintain our own heritage and look at how China, Taiwan are able to hold their heads up high and not bowing down to the pressure of global influence. It should be we the dominant race in global presence thanks to China, lead and not the white skin who looked down on the yellow and brown skin.

Just look at USA, there are still underlying issues with the white black issue, due to the value the black skin population bring to the white skin, they have no choice but to accept them reluctantly. Don’t believe look back at the latest presidential election which states “The first black US president” which is the white black difference and it’s still around but they greatly reduce it to prevent riots for security reasons.

Bonds will never fail us; equality seekers will fail us eventually in times of needs especially war times.

China is able to withstand the technology revolution because they moral values emphasis heavy weight age on family, relatives gathering, whatever the public dislike or don’t agree, the internet technology guys don’t even dare to do anything with what’s not welcomed in China. Taiwan celebrity Rainee Yang is a typical example, being blocked from China due to the population dissatisfaction and thus hindering her entertainment growth into the China music arena. She was blocked from China market for years due to speaking the wrong words which angered Chinese in China and was recently being emphasis again on a similar event.

Whatever we do, we need to remember our roots, and speak our own native language to maintain and ensure our own traditional culture never dies off. That is needed to be a homeland of respective nation by not allowing other culture to step into our home turf.

It is the bonding that we have that will stick to us and nothing can change that fact.

So which side are you really on? Ask and search your inner self for answers. What is it that you desire?

Appreciation

posted by ryan

Appreciation is a feeling which only both parties understand. It’s a feeling between the giver and the recipient of the value and the services involved. It’s a unbreakable sense of appreciation that converts into a sense of satisfaction and thus translate value and profits.

Feeling of appreciation and being appreciative is a value of service that brings both parties involved to be mutually beneficial. The rewards between both parties and even in businesses will also reap handsome profits. Looking at the 5-star and 6-star hotels, what value do they offer to their customers?

What makes the customers coming back for more? How to create a mutually beneficial proposition? When to offer such value added services to customers? Who will deliver the services and bridge up the gap to create the feeling to have the customers feeling appreciative? Why would such businesses and families want to let their customers and children feel happy with what’s being offered? Where will the services be offered to allow a win-win situation between both parties?

Actually my inspiration for this entry comes right after watching a channel 8 show on heirloom dishes. What it offered to and the ideas was to create the connection between family and increase the bonding among family members but all this was disrupted having to walk into a room filled with smoke which I detest most except to bear with it. The above second paragraph wasn’t what I had in mind but it just came to me as I was trying to find and piece back what I lost in terms of ideas on blogging thanks to the stressful damaging effect the smoke filled room give me as I retrieve my laptop.

Appreciation between families should be fun, happy and looking forward to it. Don’t get me wrong, don’t look forward to being appreciative by praising, although it’s a must do step, but it’s the process of positive feedback and constant practicing and self-improvement which translates into better cooking skills thus bridging family bonding stronger and closer.

Cooking should be fun, and makes people look forward to the same dish over and over again. The only possible option to allow people to look forward to same dish is only made possible in a family. Not even hotels or business can replicate the feeling because it’s the ambiance of home and the bonding between your love ones that makes it especially close to the hearts of individuals.

There’s only so much businesses can do but there’s more that home business can do and profit from just that home based housewives aren’t equipped with the knowledge of know-how to expand their ideas and increase their wealth generation methods via using smart tools, which is why related education to financial success is important. While I might not be somebody now, but if by the time you read this and should decide to find out more about going digital also known as internet marketing, feel free to contact me via the contact page. Not sure if I can be trusted, no problem, feel free to ask me for my previous works of discussion in forums, there’s dates as proofs. Evidence can’t lie.

Pardon me for the self-advertising…but that’s what business is all about. If you don’t know how to sell yourself, than you can’t succeed, it all starts from you and what you’ve got to offer to others.

Perhaps there are only two paragraphs of this blog entry which really came from the idea but the extra contents came not from the idea but also from my observations over the years thanks to different experiences.

Alimony

posted by ryan

Lately as I am watching television, the more I watch, the more I learn and absorb into my mind. Adding more and more bricks to solidify my barrier and different tests set in my mind to test a person before marriage if the other half is for love or for wealth. This might not sounds related to business but read on and you’ll understand.

Like I’ve mention previously before.Family, fortune, wealth, alimony are common issues mention in a family tussle when family splits. Therefore, one who knows how to handle, anticipate future problems will have the traits required and fit to be an entrepreneur. Perhaps not the kind of entrepreneur most people are looking for, but to me, it’s a real entrepreneur because if there’s a person who really knows how to look after and take care of a family, than he/she will definitely know the importance of flexible working hours and reap the benefits of loyalty and the ability to brave through potential crisis if there’s any coming their way.

Back to my subject proper, alimony, having watched the television episode on fighting for alimony it’s always family members cutting each other’s throat. That in particular rings a constant bell in my mind over and over again. With my aunties and uncle holding numerous family meetings to discuss and plan, taking sides to fight for the alimony, end up all went to the uncle, and the aunties who took sides with him didn’t earn any portion from it. My mom was against the idea, since it’s common knowledge that all alimony will be given to the male so there’s no argument about it but I still don’t know why the uncle wants a family meeting when the answer is so obvious. Months later than I realize, after the family meetings, two of my aunties and uncle talked my big aunt into giving them her home in the event should she leave (touchwood), she’s only in her young 50s than there they are already talking and eyeing any silly easy alimony.

That experience taught me many things and gives me ideas on education business ideas when I initially thought nothing of this niche until recently all thanks to something which was mention in the news. I’ll keep it as a business secret for now until I’ve rolled it out.

Money Driven

posted by ryan

Relationship, something very deep and hard to comprehend for starters with lots of grey areas involved. The area which I’ll be talking about today is with regards to money since I’m all about entrepreneurship so money again comes first. Not that it’s that important but because it’s important to identify who is staying because of genuine interest in relationship or they are interested in the money which you might be sponsoring the other party during the courtship.

Over the course of working since the age of 16, I’ve seen so many people who would put on an act to forge a relationship in attempt to gain more monetary benefits fro whomever is richer and ignore the very fact that a genuine relationship with the right person is treasure which not much can buy..Simply put it it’s priceless, something that not many people these days will learn to treasure..all thanks to the harsh practical realistic materialistic society and the No Money No Talk society..

Only during in terms of problems than only will real bonding and mutual help surface, but what I can’t understand is that why if everything is over with as in difficult times, each individuals will revert back to their masked personality, putting up with whatever problems they have at work, bring their desire of gaining to seek instant gratification and for just a moment of temporary happiness, they are willing to forgo so many other important things..all thanks to the negative influence and teachings of the education system and the upbringing of the super materialistic society..

The most recent example which left a deep memory in my mind was a fellow business competitor in a small MLM company, trying to put on a false ‘friendship’ and get the original materials and then immediately act as if he doesn’t know me having know that I’m no longer beneficial to him..being made used is small thing..but he as a business owner, should know how to pave the path for a longer term yet only making friends under false intentions just to earn more money..

Some times I really wonder..what’s the point of trusting people in business and at work when each other is just for money..does money really hold such an important part in life? Why will people only so fake?? Is it really just to survive in this super materialistic society??

Thanks to numerous experiences which made me grow faster, fall harder learn much more than peers older than my age. From those experience, I’m happy that I went through all those shit..having gone through those, only am I the true me doing what I do and not after money.. I will not sell myself, my reputation nor trust for in exchange for money..if I did, I would already have done so years ago..but from the mlm experience, I learnt that friends and whatever genuine relationship is better than money..

Nothing is more scary than loneliness..what if you have all the money in the world, but look around the people around the suddenly rich people..who exactly are those people..deep down..they are just hypocrites..blood suckers..boot-lickers..nothing more than that..

Nagging

posted by ryan

Over the past few days, there’s something which repeating keep surfacing onto my mind as I watched the television shows, not one not two but three shows all which shares the same factor – nagging.

Perhaps I might have mention this nagging sector previously in my past entry before but over in this entry, it will be a full blown impact on the full consequences of nagging and how this can result in a family arguments among couples and their kids which will eventually lead to communication break-down and eventually living in each of their own individual separate ways.

Here’s another case example even in businesses, when a boss/entrepreneur is having troubles with their businesses, the first immediate thing which anybody would like to have when in faced with problems is to have some peace and quiet to sort out their thoughts, so if there’s any employees/family members who are by your side constantly nagging and suggesting different ideas or saying wrong words which complicate things, how worse can thing be?

Instead of solving things, a small issue that goes through a nagging session will than be snowballed into a much bigger issue than it originally is because of the nagging and gossiping factor which every lady and caring parents and people have, they end up making things worse without realizing it.

Because when people who care nags, it’s a form of care and concern but when all that care and concern of words are being said at the wrong time, it will than be treated as nonsense and be taken with a pinch of salt, listening from the right ear, leaving instantly from the left ear.

How would I know the consequences of such simple nagging which has such a damaging after effects, simply because I had grown up in such a family and I learnt it by example from my environment as there’s this phrase “Monkey see monkey do.” Having nagged at my family members to save water, electricity etc, since there’s no chance, I no longer nagged already since it’s not gonna change anything.

Throughout the process of nagging which I’ve observed, the first few two times of nagging, it will not be taken into account of the person who did the wrong thing. Once you nagged the third time, they will immediately take action, but don’t be happy, because the action is taken just to stop the person from nagging any more torturous words which will cause more unhappiness only. Anymore nagging from then on will be effective but all words of concern will not be taken into any consideration as care but being strike off any thoughts of communication in future because they don’t want to be nagged upon in future.

What appears to be non-harmful is actually very damaging, when one party nags, the other party who is receiving it will only slowly build up bricks by bricks of invisible barrier building causing the communication break-down in coming months or years depending on individual’s threshold limit. This barrier is the cause communication break-down in a family. As for businesses, if it’s in a family-run business, than it will result in internal conflicts, trying to slaughter each other’s throat hopping to gain the final control of the business in the event of naming a successor, and that’s when the siblings will fall out with each other if no proper terms and conditions and proper upbringing have being taught to the potential successors.

Perhaps those reading this entry might find it a bit too much and hard to believe, but over time when I look around what’s happening around me, my elders it’s just like a rotating cycle, even in newspapers, it’s happening over and over again without fail. Newspapers never fail to broadcast articles with regards to family lawsuits regarding struggle for family heritage and other related articles. Why you may feel if I am exaggerating but this is the truth which nobody have mention it in any media before.. The impact is only felt after years..I’m saying this only because this is what I’ve realized and I don’t want the same mistake to happen again so I’ll write it down to remind myself, as this was partially the reason why my family which was originally a happy family when I was young had a twist and turned into a widowed family. I can truly say that nagging is partially the course of the chain which leads to my single family status. I don’t have any happy memories of a complete family since back than I was too young to have memorize it since back then I was only 4-5yrs old. I only had memories from age 7 onwards which was when I knew that Dad was gone but don’t know why I have to pray etc and doing what I was being told to back than.

Nagging is not something which can be taken lightly, treat communication fairly and respect each other, give each other space and quiet when they come back from home. Much will be written in future on how to go about talking nicely instead of nagging. Stay tuned to read up more.

Women War!!

posted by ryan

Today marks the 2nd day which my grandma is living together with us in our home. As soon as the happiness and filial piety of my mother, she started having more regrets than happiness about her choice of brining her over to stay with us.

Since day one, my mom already started having disagreements with my grandma and rising her voice to shut my grandma which works. Seeing the argument and unhappiness happened in front of me reminds me of the many times I argue with my mom using the same tactic as well and it never fails me nor my nor, whoever shouts the loudest wins but of course supported with sufficient reasons.

Today my mom than regrets her choice once again after my grandma said she lost her ring in our home when she can’t search nor locate the ring in the house. My mom than said that this afternoon she saw two ladies chatting with her don’t know over what reasons. After which seeing her dark face, the looming eruption, I stop probing. Than the whole evening they just can’t stand each other. To make matter worse, in the home, there’s my sister too, who’s always on loggerheads with my mom. Than there they were all seated in the living room watching television..Silence filled the air with the exception of the sound coming from the television.

An aura of hatred, unhappiness and suspiciousness fill the air. I somehow sense it coming from the three women. I just sit there not knowing what to do but it sure is uneasy having to be in that awkward situation to begin with..

I wonder what lies ahead of the two days of stay with my grandma’s presence in the family. Thinking back on the past, and reflecting on the arguments and debates in my mother’s family side..they have something in common, they are all people who are trying to make the month’s end needs each very month.

On the other hand despite my father’s absence, my dad’s side of the family is all filled with rich if not can be affluent families in landed properties. Seeing them with little to zero arguments, I some how come to a conclusion that only the poor people argue over small little things. Rich people don’t argue, they just talk things out nicely.

When I tried to cross reference to my childhood primary school mate who was born with a average income family who later moved and upgraded their social status to become the league of landed property owners, seeing and being a minor part of the family made me realize that only families that talk things out instead of arguing and rising their voice will allow them a better family bonding and an increase in wealth. To date I still can’t find the missing jig-saw puzzle connecting the rich and the poor other than the common theory which I learnt from all my previous mentors or rather from my seniors and those speakers at the various different seminars which I’ve being to over the pass few years.

I hope I’ll be able to find the missing link someday and eventually join the league of being a landed property owner without worries in terms of financial concerns.
