UNLOCKING THE VAULT

i have seen a movie called surrogates few days ago... this movie is about how machines or robots taking over our daily routines and act as us as humans... all we have to do is to lie down on a chair and connect ourselves to our own personalized robots and let them go out to the streets, go to work, buy groceries for us without us having to leave our own house our own chair... easy to say that they are us out there taking care of things in our shoes... well.there are certainly some benefits from it... for example, we are invincible out there, because when accidents happen, our surrogates are the ones who receive the damage without effecting us, the host... secondly, we can be young forever in the forms of surrogate... we can create the face and body that is young and never age out there... so people out there basically know us from the young faces that we presented to others...

hurm... today we will discuss on the hot topic that is quite creepy and a mystery... i guess most of you has seen the 2012 movie on the theater right? so i want to know what are your opinions on the selected matter... as we know tomorrow is 21st december 2009... means that we have exactly 3 years left to find out the truth... is it true that on the 21st december of 2012 will be the end of days for our existence? is the apocalypse really coming? if i can choose whether to believe or not, i choose not to believe that the world will come to an end on that day... the simple answer provided comes in our faith of Islam... i truly believe that Allah is the only one who knows when the world will come to an end and only under His command and power that we will be destroyed whenever He wants... it does not necessarily on the 21st of december 2012... it can be next month or next year or maybe 100 years more... it is all in His power and will... kun fayakun...

yess!! our malaysian football team did it... after a 20 year-long disappointment and a series of upsets, we finally bring back the shining gold medal to our hall of fame... i can say that you guys made malaysians proud... congratulations... now the big question and doubt is, can you guys keep this up? can you guys get a consistent result like this for the next 5 years? and the bigger question is, can you guys try to break in and compete to be in the same league as the giants of asian continent such as japan, south korea and iran? if we look to our current level of performance, we are still far far away from touching the seats of asian aristocrats of football... but if we look back to our long line of history, we should be surprised why is that up until now we havent be able to stand as tall sit as low with these giants... we used to beat these japanese or koreans team to pulp... but now, we are the minnows and a piece of chocolate cake to them...

i want to remind myself actually that whatever opportunities that may come to my front door, always remember who i am and do not forget my roots... i use to think that there is only one same set of roots to our tree of life just like the trees that grow and landscaping our lands... i sometimes get blurry what is it meant by our root... what actually defines the root... our parent's words of wisdom? or our cultural identity? or both? or it is just simply stick to our good principles that we usually develop in our own conscience stage by stage year by year... i dont have the answer yet... but the older i get i realize that these roots can change... depends on how we wills it or want it... i think the need to change always comes on the precipice of major crisis or after it... when we are standing on the ledge and knows that how a change that we perform might save us from the trouble...

people use to say what a small world... i think it is not the world that is getting smaller but the distance between us human that is getting closer and closer... dont you agree? people are connected in so many ways that we ourselves never expect it... a person who lives in China is closer to the President of the United States, Barack Obama than the President's own adviser who works in White House just as Mr President does because his step brother lives there... and i have a friend, a Sarawakian whose her boyfriend's elder brother married to her first cousin and they did not know it until they met recently... and her boyfriend and his elder brother are Selangorians... separated by hundreds of miles but actually connected that close all along... what are the odds...
