Siri Bercakap Dengan Edrick L

Posted in Sense on June 9, 2015| Leave a Comment »

This is going to be a quick one. I just have to write this down before I forget. Oh, I forget a lot of things these days. I even forget who I am, sometimes.

.

And this morning when Kitreena was telling me again about the cheerleading team and how nasty of a quote sent to her by the girl she is co-captaining the team with… I just could not help but mentioning the poster that was shared with me yesterday.

.

Prettifying....

Kitreena and Edrick heard it and both went, “Oh my God! Mommm” and they could not stop giggling. Edrick giggled even longer. I knew he was imagining something else.

.

Edrick: Can you imagine all the make-up she would have to eat.

Mommy: It is gonna be a paint factory in there.

Edrick: Mom, what if the make-up went all mixed up in her tummy?

Mommy: Hahaha! Yeah, it would definitely be all smudgy inside.

Edrick: That is not gonna be pretty, Mom! Hahahaha.

Kitreena: Edrick! Hahahaa.

.

Monchies kept on giggling as they got off the car. And as I glanced at my Go-Bag that carries the Maybelline facial powder and a lipstick, I drove away all smiley this morning. Despite all the wonderful people who should just eat their make-up and try to be pretty on the inside… my life is pretty good, I must say.

Postlude:
Pardon me about the B word. I don’t use it on anyone, nor do I condone its use by my kids. But sometimes, the B word does make a deep impact. And of course, I love dogs. They bark.

U-Pimpin & I-Pimpin

Posted in Sense on June 6, 2015| Leave a Comment »

Orang kita ni banyak sangat bercakap pasal pemimpin sebab itu yang disogokkan media. Kalau hal Najib ni terjadi zaman ayah beliau, kita kena tunggu suratkhabar esok baru tau kisah. Mana ada Facebook, Twitter dan suratkhabar online. Sekarang ni, belum lagi jadi apa-apa, satu dunia dah kecoh. Kita pun sudahnya jadi media, sebab wall kita lah yang paling banyak sekali liputan pasal Najib dan Tun M. Macam lah orang nak baca sangat pun. Orang kita mana rajin membaca?

.

Apa kata kita pimpin diri kita dulu. Najib nak kata dia darah pahlawan ke, dia nak sembunyi di Gua Niah ke, kita tengokkan saja. Kita bawa diri kita ke arah kebaikan. Kadang-kadang kebaikan itu datang dalam bentuk yang sangat mudah. That is… saying nothing. Tun nak sokong ke, tak nak sokong ke, nak berucap ke, nak mengucap ke, kita tengokkan saja. Kita bawa diri kita ke arah apa yang baik untuk KITA saja dulu.

.

Bila pemimpin dan bekas pemimpin sibuk bercakap, kita dengar kan saja. Tak perlu kita pun bercakap sama. Sampai waktu kita sendiri jadi pemimpin nanti… baru kita tau. Masa tu nanti kita buatlah keputusan sama ada nak bercakap ke, nak menyorok ke, nak mengkritik ke. Sehingga itu, kita tengokkan saja. Kita bawa diri kita ke arah kebaikan yang kita tahu. Untuk KITA.

.

Cakap banyak pun tak guna. Orang yang sibuk memimpin ke arah kebaikan tak ada masa nak bercakap banyak sepatutnya. With power comes great responsibility. Kita dok bercakap, letak post pongpang-pongpang, chong sana chong sini… mana power nya?

.

Baik tunjuk ‘power’ tolong bini kat dapur tumbuk sambal untuk makan tengahari dengan anak-anak sementara cuti umum dan cuti sekolah ni. KITA lah pemimpin mereka. Cakap lebih-lebih, Power Rangers pun dah penat gelakkan kita.
