Good habits and Bad habits

Ever since i am back from toronto, that even though i on more medication than before, but i have been feeling better.. although my body weight do not gain in reflection of that. but it's oki, my pririty is to get well, and get fatter later.

So coming friday i will be visiting my doctor again, and most likely will be increaing his chemo dosage from one to two tablets for the next two weeks.

And before i forget, i just want to remind myself of something i learn on sunday at Batam.

A very wise man, who is also a good friend, good colleague and widely respected manager at my office has been a great helper to me. And not surprisingly, he was also leading some charitable work to batam, but for some reason there were short of helpers last sunday, and so i enlisted myself to help.

Overall i don't think we really did a lot, it would be a easy task if i were to be fitter of course. Nothing realy strike an impression when we were there at the village except the few gigling children that i took with my camera.

We ended our mission there at around 5pm, what i really learnt was a story told by Mr choe.

There were just 5 of us, choe and meng, me and nerissa, plus a friend of Mr choe, whom is supposely quite a racist against the non-chinese.How he ended up with us at helping the Batam villagers was because of a classic story Choe used to convinced him.

"there was this enlightend wise man meditating on the river side, and he saw a scorpion was drowning in the river, being kind hearted, he tried to help, but each time he tried to handle it, it got stinged; the disciples asked the master why he bothered to even try since the scorpion will always keep stinging his hands, but he explained that the scorpion has a bad habit of stinging people, and he himself has a good habit of helping others, so why would he give up his good habit for someone with bad habits? .... "

Choe did not finish the story if eventually the scorpion got tired of stinging the hand that is trying to save him, but whatever grief his friend had against the muslims apparently disappeared at that very moment of hearing the above story, and he was there to help them anyway. :)

i have learn much too. So never give up our good habits for someone with bad habits!!
