cakap cakap...chill!

When Izzy, our grand daughter, was a few months old, her mother’s way of getting her to be still and stay quite was to tell Izzy to “CHILL” – with appropriate hand gestures (one finger salute done the polite way!) and that stern look that only lasts for as long as Izzy did not smile! It worked for about five seconds and then she cracks up her mother with that angelic smile of hers!

I think, like Izzy, we all need to “CHILL”. NOW!

Too many things flying around our airspace that it is getting hard to draw oxygen into our lungs. Without oxygen we die!

I read, five minutes ago about Haris Ibrahim resignation as MCLM President. As I have said in my posting to him, I have still to understand in full, his reason for doing so – but more important this Haris Ibrahim is someone whose commitment and focus to a noble cause is unparalleled! I do not know Haris and I might have crossed swords with him way back over a comment he made about Anwar – but since then I have only had admiration for the work he does.

I am sure unlike the Police, Haris did not make this decision ‘in the heat of the moment’ but for now let it go with the flow and see how it will pan out. I do not intend to say anything that will aggravate or negate the situation any more then it has already is. Brother Haris chill!

Just as the ascendancy of our commitment to ABU is beginning to peak we are again side swiped by the happenings of these last few days. I would like to remind our friends that in our fight against UMNO and Barisan Nasional sacrifices and pain are inevitable. But suffering is optional. We must not allow ourselves to be overcome by these problems because God will not give us anything we cannot handle. It will be a struggle.

Bad is never good until worse happens.

Danish Proverb

And worse has not happen to us just yet. The 13^th general election is not over yet. We have a fight on our hand. You must remember that we chose this path – nobody forced us to do so. So for now let us go onwards.

ABU! ABU! ABU!
