The Crazy World of Covid-19

Obviously, no country or human being is spared by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Our life's have been changed.
The normal life, or what we think it was, is no longer the same.
The world economy is suffering already.
Businesses will be hit hard in the coming weeks, and will be transformed eventually.
If and when the virus is contained, we will likely see a new world order in all countries.
And, in the way we live and interact with each other.
Normal, will not be that normal again.
Into the second day of Malaysia's Movement Control Order, staying at home for me isn't so bad.
I get to appreciate the home that I pay rent for.
I get to reflect on my life and the life that I have lived.
We get to do the things that we have worked hard for.
The only drawback about social distancing is that we can't meet family members of friends.
We can't watch a movie, can't play tennis, can't play golf or can't visit our favourite restaurants.
But that's okay.
That will all return eventually.
The most important thing is to flatten the curve of the virus.
Stop spreading it.
STAY AT HOME!

BENEFITS OF STAYING AT HOME FOR 2 WEEKS
1. We get to cook. Much healthier than eating out for convenience.
2. You can finally do spring cleaning, get rid of the junk in your storeroom or closets that you forgot were even there.
3. I get to finish reading the books that I never had time for.
4. With businesses closed, not much work can be done. So, you get to watch Netflix or Astro (Get your money's worth for the monthly subscription!).
5. I get to meditate. We can pray for the world to recover and for peace.
6. We get to communicate with friends or family we never had time for on Whatsapp. Give them a call. That's more personal.
7. We can start that new hobby we never had time for.
8. Listen to music that you never had time for.
9. You get to teach the kids life skills and get the quality time that you never had while working everyday.
10. You get to rest.

What Matters Most Is Inside You

Somehow, humans are a bunch of sensitive, overreacting bunch!!! Observing the way things have been going, it is obvious that the world, and in particular, the human species will never change. Our lives are filled with the trails and tribulations of evolution and co-existence. Wars... they are inevitable and have always been existent even before billions of us were born. With the good, comes evil. IS ANYONE GOING TO STOP THE GENOCIDE HAPPENING IN THE MIDDLE EAST? Never mind that... Just look into the mirror and ask yourself whether you have felt anguish and hatred towards another human being? Have you gotten so angry before that you felt like strangling an irritating, back-stabbing colleague? Yes..., you have right? It is okay that you have had such feelings as we all have faced our fair share of bad and evil people in our lives. Do we just sit in silence or do we do something about it? When I was younger, I would have chosen the latter cause of action. Nowadays, I am trying my best to ...

GRATEFUL FOR 2024

From me to yours... Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!   Another Eventful Year on Earth Checked. Have we been naughty or nice?! Wow... what an experience the Universe presented me in 2024. The year started quietly with much uncertainty as a consultant. Truly, my year kick-started in February when I was appointed the Media Officer of the IRS Prima Malaysian Open 2024 at The Mines Resort & Golf Club. I was so happy to work with the international team of professionals from Fairway Inspire Sdn Bhd and the Asian Tour. It was a time to reunite with guardian angels from the past and to connect with new friends. You guys will always remain close to my heart and etched in my positive memory vault. This year, I travelled to many golf courses telling the Smartscore scoring and management solutions story (Still peddling the stories!). Fortunately or unfortunately, realised that the golf club management scene has not changed much from the 2000s'. The majority of clubs nationwide are stil...

SEEK BALANCE THROUGH AWARENESS

What we know, or don't, was meant to be. Through observation and understanding, your mental and physical state will stay healthy and happy. I always find it fascinating hearing conversations. Whether it is a group of retirees at a kopitiam  or the youngsters at cafes. Not that I am a serial eavesdropper, but these are loud groups that share information on topics regarding politics, love and life in general. Typical Malaysian mah..., "you don't know meh?", is the usual 'I knew the story before you' trait! Of course, many receive their information from the web and social media platforms that are mostly fake news (Many will argue that they are true!). Some debates seem like arguments at times, while there have been occasions when friendships end due to differences of opinion.    Aren't we humans a special bunch?! Most often than not, and subconsciously, we speak without realizing the truth or knowing the facts of a case or subject matter. It is perfectly norm...
