When I wrote “I write, I type, I swype“, it reminds me of some doctors’ infamous scribblings on patients’ notes. It was dangerously amazing how some nurses could make out what the orders or prescriptions were!

Worse still, if the writer oneself could not read one’s own hand-writings! Tell that in a court case! Will it be a liability? Bless you!

To let a daughter/son be a nurse

To be a nurse ? (Photo by Sam Lion on Pexels.com)

Once, nursing was

synonymous with women.

But not anymore

Today there are male

as well as female nurses.

****

Once, they used

to wear caps.

But not anymore.

They used to say even ghosts

would make way for the cap

along hospital corridors at nights.

****

Once, they said

“are you letting your girl

go dress rotten (diabetic) leg sores”?

Not knowing, there are even bigger wounds to care for.

****

Today, parents may ask,

“are you letting your girl/ boy

be a nurse; a noble profession…

but, knowing the risks of COVID-19?”

Love your nemesis

Love your nemesis

Meet your nemesis

*******

Sometimes, 

there is a certain someone

even a nemesis,

who will give you a push,

a much needed push,

to a direction

you have been hesitating

but it was a direction

to your success in life!

*********

Have you got one in your life?

Be thankful to that certain individual!

Winter Sonata. 

Winter Sonata

I am happy to be able to sing this lovely Malay song ( listen to my solo Musim Sonata Salju) as I remember the Korean drama, Winter Sonata. It was such a heartfelt drama, the chemistry between Bae Yon-joon and Choi Ji-woo was beautiful to watch, but so sad.

Overview
After losing Joon Sang in an accident, Yoo Jin decides to marry her childhood friend. However, she meets someone looking exactly like her lost love, putting her in a bind. (The ending story here)

Happiness is the highest form of health.

Happiness is the highest form of health.

I can not stand a certain group chat culture. So, I chose to withdraw from that group twice but got reinserted. Some say, ” Oh,  just ignore some of them!”

Could we? Should we?

Do not let the behaviour of others destroy your inner peace- Dalai Lama

“Happiness is the highest form of health.” — Dalai Lama

The Dalai Lama captures the essence of well-being in this quote. True health encompasses not just the absence of illness, but a state of happiness and contentment. When the mind is at peace and joyful, the body naturally follows suit.

Raising a different ability…

Raising a different ability…

Watching this blind person

playing musical instruments

with such lovely voice,

I can’t help

but admire the patience

of his parents or guardians

for successfully, turning him into

such a beautifully abled person!

One too heartbreaking to arrest!

One too heartbreaking to arrest!

I read about a theft at the grocery store, where  a woman stole 5 eggs to feed her hungry kids at home when questioned by a police officer.  The latter took her to the grocery store to buy some items instead of arresting her!

Sometimes, one has to apply humanity instead of the law. Such compassion!

Here is a police officer who used his brain instead of arresting and putting behind the bar, the thief who needs help; … the thief whom societal safety net and politicians have failed.

Quote:-

“I’m not the kind of person who likes to shout out my personal issues from the rooftops, but with my bipolar becoming public, I hope fellow sufferers will know it’s completely controllable. I hope I can help remove any stigma attached to it, and that those who don’t have it under control will seek help with all that is available to treat it.” — Catherine Zeta-Jones

“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.” — Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
