This is pedobear! I think its damn bloody cute and funny! hahahha, you might wanna google pedobear to find out what is it. When pedobear is coming, just run!I REALLY HOPE EVERYONE CAN SPEND 5 MINUTES TO READ MY FOLLOWING POST.
Sometimes humans are too smart for their own good. For the best part of my teenage years, I have been trying my very best to understand the people around me. I've learnt to change the selfish perception of mine and I've learnt to accept the weaknesses of others which I think is the most important.
Every single incident, we must learn to look at it in different views. What are the reasons for a particular action? Every single conflict, we must stand in the shoes of both parties.
Take an incident today that happened to me for example, I was buying food back for myself and I ordered a "Cheese sausage crepe". This is a kind of "pay and show your receipt later to collect your food" system. So while I saw my order being ready, the staff shouted out the food's name and before I could react, there was this lady who has everything of a typical kiasu Singaporean rushed to the counter and said "MINE MINE MINE!" I thought okay fine, since you are so hungry and you want the food so badly, I shall let you have it.
So I waited again for my food and Oh, this lady came much later than me in the queue. Then finally it was my turn and by then I knew she collected the wrong food item. I told the staff which was a nice auntie that the lady took my food and now I have to take her order of "Chicken floss crepe". The staff auntie was very very apologetic and she repeatedly offered to change it for me but I rejected it. In front of so many people, she have to let her senority pride down and tell me "Sorry sorry, auntie never check properly, auntie's fault leh" This is service at its best without any GST.
At this point of time, I knew I could not bear to make her remake the food and I also never had the intention. I was fine with the chicken floss crepe but I wonder how will the kiasu woman felt after collecting the wrong food. I told the auntie that I am fine with it and It's really okay but she kept apologizing and she said "NI HEN HAO LEH". Now this really left me wondering, haven't she met an understanding Singaporean like me before? HAHA, it might be a small thing but I felt really happy because just like this, I believed we both felt the warmth of humans. If I'd chose to make things difficult for her, we would both ended up with a :( on our faces.
That brings me to my main point which is RESPECT. There are people around me who deserved to be respected and I remember them in my head and heart. Sometimes my jokes can be very crude but 99% of the time, I make sure I let the other party know it is a joke. I've grown to learnt that If you can never learn to respect others, you can achieve nothing in life. ABSOUTELY NOTHING. You can spend your whole day or week cursing and swearing at everything or everybody around you but what can you achieve? When its time to reflect yourself using your own pee, then do it! For at least now, I absoutely detest people who are rude and are always finding a way to blame others than themselves. If you are trying to be funny by being rude then I can tell you that you are the joke of your joke.
I still have much more to say but I think it would exceed 5 minutes. Thanks for those who spent your time to read my post and I will be glad if you think that whatever I've said made sense to you.
