Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely."

by Lord Acton

fog and moonlight

It was a cold, cold night in Melbourne...
There was fog everywhere in the city as I drove home.
I feared for the safety of my spiritual sanctity.
As on nights like these, great evil walks the earthly realms.

The children of the night stalk their prey.

GOOD and BAD phone etiquette

BAD Example
============
gal: (sounding out) you feeling sleepy??
guy: yeah, tired from work...
gal: (sounding concerned) ok, shall not disturb you,
go and sleep lah
guy: ok, you have an early nite too..

guy hangs up the phone.
5 min later, the phone rings.
the guy is awaken by the phone...

guy: hello?
gal: .............
guy: who's this?
gal: (feeling unloved) you feel very bothered by me is it?
guy: (confused) huh? what?
gal: .............
guy: why? what happened?
gal: you find me very bothersome is it?
guy: bothersome? what makes you say that??
gal: ..............
guy: what's the matter? how i would know if you dun say it out?
gal: we are chatting halfway, and you yawn, and went off to sleep...
guy: b...but, you are the one who ask me to go to sleep...
gal: you already said want to sleep already, what else u want me to say?
guy: haiz... if you wanna chat, just say so...
what for tell me to go sleep, and feel unhappy in the end?
gal: since when i'm unhappy?
guy: isn't this unhappy? ok ok, i won't sleep the next time, will that do?
gal: what's the point? i want you to chat with me willingly,
and not because afraid that i will be unhappy...

in the end, guy spends another hour comforting the gal.
actual sleep time is 11.40pm.
due to the earlier argument, he did not have a good sleep.
worse is that the gal may argue over the same thing again the next day.





GOOD Example
============
gal: (sounding out) you feeling sleepy?
guy: (tired vocal, but sound interested) abit,
tired from work. but you have not finished talking,
carry on, i will be listening.
gal: (feeling consoled) oh, but since you are tired,
go and sleep then (still sounding out)

never fall into the trap after and hang up the phone...

guy: there's no afternoon break today, indeed very tiring.
how abt I give you a call tomorrow morning.
let's chat awhile more ok? (tells the reason, and offers a make up measure)
gal: oh ok. go and sleep now, you must be tired.

gal is willing to let guy go sleep,
but guy must do a bit more than this.

guy: so what time you are going to sleep?
gal: not sure, probably a bit later.
guy: ok, but not too late, not good for health.
I will be heart pain one hor...
gal: (feeling loved) ok lah...
guy: I love you the most!
(even if eyes are shutting also must remember to say this important words,
else all effort wasted)
gal: I love you too, have a good rest! (so happy till can float liao)
guy: ehmm...

gal then hangs up the phone at last, 11.10pm.
the guy sleeps peacefully,
and will probably get a morning call from gal the next day...

the art of war...

What are the Rules of Engagement?



If a stronger enemy assails you,
better bend like the reed by the stream.
Do not rear like an angry snake
if unremitting prosperity is what you seek.

Following the lowly manner of the reed
a man gains great prosperity in time.
Adopting the overbearing manner of the snake,
he is simply courting death.
