how u make a wise decision?


A group of children were playing near two railway tracks, one still in use while the other disused.
Only one child played on the disused track, the rest on the operational track.

The train is coming, and you are just beside the track interchange.
You can make the train change its course to the disused track and save most of the kids.
However, that would also mean the lone child playing by the disused track would be sacrificed.
Or would you rather let the train go its way?

Let's take a pause to think what kind of decision we could make........ ........



Scroll down







Most people might choose to divert the course of the train, and sacrifice only one child.
You might think the same way, I guess.
Exactly, to save most of the children at the expense of only one child was rational decision
most people would make, morally and emotionally.
But, have you ever thought that the child choosing to play on the disused track had in fact
made the right decision to play at a safe place?

Nevertheless, he had to be sacrificed because of his ignorant friends who chose to play where the danger was.

This kind of dilemma happens around us everyday.
In the office, community, in politics and especially in a democratic society,
the minority is often sacrificed for the interest of the majority,
no matter how foolish or ignorant the majority are, and how farsighted and knowledgeable the minority are.
The child who chose not to play with the rest on the operational track was sidelined.
And in the case he was sacrificed, no one would shed a tear for him.


The great critic Leo Velski Julian who told the story said he would not try to change the course of the train
because he believed that the kids playing on the operational track should have known very well that track was still in use,
and that they should have run away if they heard the train's sirens..
If the train was diverted, that lone child would definitely die because he never thought the train could come over to that track!
Moreover, that track was not in use probably because it was not safe.
If the train was diverted to the track, we could put the lives of all passengers on board at stake!
And in your attempt to save a few kids by sacrificing one child, you might end up sacrificing hundreds of people to save these few kids.

While we are all aware that life is full of tough decisions that need to be made,
we may not realize that hasty decisions may not always be the right one.


'Remember that what's right isn't always popular... and what's popular isn't always right.'

Everybody makes mistakes; that's why they put erasers on pencils.

just wanna share it..

烛光晚餐。桌两边,坐了男人和女人。

  “我喜欢你。”女人一边摆弄着手里的酒杯,一边淡淡地说着。

  “我有老婆。”男人摸着自己手上的戒指。

  “我不在乎,我只想知道,你的感觉。你,喜欢我吗?”

  男人抬起头,打量着对面的女人。

  24岁,年轻,有朝气,相当不错的年纪。

  白皙的皮肤,充满活力的身体,一双明亮的,会说话的眼睛。

  真是不错的女孩啊,可惜。

  “如果你也喜欢我,我不介意作你的情人。”女人终于等不下去,追加了一句。

  “我爱我妻子。”男人坚定地回答。

  “你爱她?爱她什么?现在的她,应该已经年老色衰,见不得人了吧。否则,公司的晚宴,

怎么从来不见你带她来……”

  女人还想继续,可接触到男人冷冷的目光后,打消了念头。

  静……

  “你喜欢我什么?”男人开口了。

  “成熟,稳重,动作举止很有男人味,懂得关心人,很多很多。反正,和我之前见过的人不 同,你很特别。


  “你知道三年前的我什么样子?”男人点了颗烟。

  “不知道。我不在乎,即使你坐过牢。”

  “三年前,我就是你现在眼里的那些普通男人。”男人没理会女人,继续说。

  “普通大学毕业,工作不顺心,整天喝酒,发脾气。对女孩子爱理不理,还因为去夜总会找 小姐,被police抓过。”

  “那怎么……”女人有了兴趣,想知道是什么让男人转变的。

  “因为她?”

  “嗯。”

  “她那个人,好像总能看到事情的内在。教我很多东西,让我别太计较得失,别太在乎眼前

的事,尽量待人和善。那时的我在她面前,就像少不更事的孩子。那时真的很奇怪,倔脾气的我

,偏偏最听她的话。按照她说的,接受现实,我知道自己没用,就努力工作。那年年底,工作上 稍微有了起色,我们结婚了。”

  男人弹了弹烟灰,继续说着。

  “那时,真是苦日子。两个人,一张床,家里的家具也少得可怜。知道吗?结婚一年后,我

才给她买了第一枚钻戒,存了大半年的钱呢。当然,是背着她存的。若她知道了,是肯定不让的

。”

  “那阵子,因为烟酒弄得自己身体不好。大冬天的,她每天晚上睡前还要给我熬汤喝。那味 道,也只有她做得出。”

  男人沉醉于回忆里,忘记了时间,只是不停地讲述着往事。

  而女人,也丝毫没有打断的意思,静静地听着。

  等男人注意到时间,已经晚上10点了。

  “啊,对不起,没注意时间,已经这么晚了。”男人抱歉地笑了笑。

  “现在,你可以理解嘛?我不可能,也不会,做对不起她的事。”

  “啊,知道了。输给这样子的人,心服口服了!”女人无奈地摇了摇头。“不过我到了她的 年纪,会更棒的。”

  “嗯。那就可以找到更好的男人。不是吗?”

  “很晚了,家里的汤要冷了,我送你回去。”男人站起身,想送女人。

  “不了,我自己回去可以了。”女人摆了摆手。“回去吧,别让她等急了。”

  男人会心地笑了笑,转身要走。

  “她漂亮嘛?”

  “……嗯,很美。”

  男人的身影消失在夜色中,留下女人,对着蜡烛,发呆。

  男人回到家,推开门,径直走进卧室,打开了台灯。

  沿着床边,他坐了下来。

  “老婆,已经第四个了。干嘛让我变得这么好,好多人喜欢我呀。搞不好,我会变心呀。干 吗把我变得这么好,自己却先走了?我,我一个人,好孤单呀……”

  男人哽咽地说着,终于泣不成声。

  眼泪,一滴滴从男人的脸颊流下,打在手心里的相框上。昏暗的灯光中,旧照片里弥漫着的是已逝女子淡淡的温柔。

沒有永遠對的價值觀

朋友手拿一份報紙,說讓我做一個小小的測驗,我欣然同意了。

問題一:如果你知道有一個女人懷孕了,她已經生了八個小孩,其中有三個耳朵聾、兩個眼睛瞎、一個智能不足,

而這女人自己又有梅毒,請問,你會建議她墮胎嗎?

我剛要回答,朋友制止了我,又問我第二個問題。

問題二:現在要選舉一名領袖,而你這一票很關鍵。

下面是關於這三位候選人的一些事實:

候選人A
跟一些不誠實的政客有往來,而且會咨詢占星學家。他有婚外情,是一個老煙槍,每天喝8─10杯的馬丁尼。

候選人B

他過去有兩次被解雇的記錄,睡覺睡到中午才起來,大學時吸過鴉片,而且每天傍晚會喝一夸特的威士忌。

候選人C
他是一位受勛的戰爭英雄,素食主義者,不抽煙,只偶爾喝一點啤酒。從沒有發生過婚外情。

請問你會在這些候選人中選哪一個?
朋友讓我把答案寫在紙上,然後告訴我說:

候選人A是:富蘭克林羅斯福,
候選人B是:溫斯頓邱吉爾,
候選人C是:亞道夫希特勒。

我聽了答案驚訝地張大了嘴巴。朋友表情凝重地問我:
你是不是為世界人民選擇了希特勒?那你會建議這位婦女墮胎嗎?

我說:這個問題不用考慮,我們受計劃生育優生優育教育多年了,都生那麼多歪瓜劣棗了,就別再添亂了。當然墮胎啊。

朋友說:你殺了貝多芬,她是貝多芬的母親。
我又一次吃驚地張大了嘴巴。
朋友說:嚇一跳吧?本來你認為很好很人道主義的答案,結果卻扼殺了貝多芬、創造了希特勒?

最後朋友總結道:所以不要用既定的價值觀來思考事物

我抓過朋友手中的報紙,原來真是一個測驗題,題目是《你的決定滅了誰》。
重要的是,不是我們在哪,而是我們要往哪走......
如果你知道往哪走,并且相信自己,世界會為你開出一條路........

mooncake festival

Has been busy since i came back from raya break. but still i managed to go back ipoh during mooncake festival.. i think for our age, candles and tanglong are no longer in our playlist.. but last friday when i just reached ipoh, i went to my aunty's place.. when i reached the house, my 4 cousins were playing candles and tanglong there.. they were so excited when holding a tanglong on their hand.. they saw me and asked me to join them.. my mum went down took something from my aunt and we went off.. i asked my mum: 'y they so excited playing tanglong and candles?" my mum answered: 'you all used to be like that.. that time you all play until dun wan to stop..' ya.. she was right.. mooncake festival used to be day that im looking forward alot.. the children will play tanglong (or burn the tanglong??) and play with the candles while the adult will sit aside and chit chat. for me, masak masak was the most exciting part. masak the grass with the candles on a milo cover. mayb always see our mum cook thats y feel like trying it although we knew its not real. playing with fire was really fun.. haha.. but all this just can keep in my memory book. all of us are stepping nearer and nearer to the adult stage. this kind of fun is hard to get ald. but i still cherish the memories that accompany me grow up.


* since long time din update any blog, just spare some time out for this short blog. time to move on with my next agenda.. study for PCI test which is on this thurs.. gambateh partial sum and everyone out there..*
