         Friday, July 06, 2007 Its a dirty world1:37 pm
         I remembered my aunt asking.. " How can you guys be sure that you'll be doing the right things? Its a dirty world out there and you are all still young. " So we told her that we'll learn as fast as possible and we'll be as smart as possible in the decisions we take." 
 Now.....
 Whatever she said... Its 101% true... I tot that the problems we faced at Gombak were bad.. The external partnership, the tutors, the whole state of the initial place.. I tot.. " The worst happened.. What else can scare me? " When I look back at all those, they seem so harmless... as compared to the situations we are forced to face in Tampines. We are wiltering.. We keep asking ourselves.. What did we do wrong? Somewhere somehow, some things are not right. The question is, how do we know for sure the sincerity of a person. Through their eyes? Through their speeches? Through their persistence? Or only time will tell? Its a dirty place.. especially when you are in business.. All the ppl you deal with... every single one of them.. to cut things short.. Dont trust anyone... Ms Hiro ever told me.. " Teacher Su, there are many bad people in this world.. So few we can trust. Maybe honest ppl cannot survive? " She was telling me her experiences doing business with her husband.. The only thing which is getting me going is the same thing every single successful person has told me, "You dont quit when you fall. You get up and continue the journey."
 
 My aunt
 One morning, I woke up, texted her... told her that I wanted to talk to her, rushed down to her work place and I poured out everything.. The last thing she told me, " No matter what happens, dont let your fighting spirit die. "
 
 i told her.. " Its the only thing I have left... " and I'll hold on to it tightly...
 
 
 To my comrades.. Hopefully InsyaAllah, one day we can all look back and laugh all these away. |
