Ok
Pete what you can do I also can do lah! But first must give respect where
respect is due….please Pete…tolong kasi saya jalan…OK? I can see him smiling…so
I guess that is an “OK”. Right on Pete!
I
did look behind me and I see nothing. Nobody. Like most other bloggers I write
what I want. We ask for donation and a few good soul do donate. When I know I
have written something good (this is very subjective) I post it and is on a
high the whole day. Sometimes I become the news rather then being the one to
bring the news…but only for a fleeting minute or so…and then only for target
practice by those of you that want to vent your anger and ridicule on me for
writing what is in my heart. But then I should have known better and kept those
things in my heart for to put anything into the public domain means that there
will be those that will invariably think what you write is offensive. So
really you cannot win.
But
the kick I get from knowing that there are some amongst you that share my
thoughts is indeed invigorating.
I
do despair sometimes as to how I will get that oomph to come up with things to
write. It is a frightening feeling to have that mental block because you think
that everything that needs to be written about has been written. What can I
write about today? What spin can I give to a story that is already one week
old? How do I react to those who keep reminding me that it is Ramadhan and I
need to be careful where I tread? And some will beseech me to read a particular
ayat of the Tafsir Surah An-Nur hoping that in so doing I will be converted to
their way of doing things.
There
is only one constant in my life and that is “change”. My thoughts and my
beliefs are always open to change as and when I am exposed to things that I am
not aware of before. Nothing is sacred but there are matters that I do not have
the courage to venture into. Religion for one.It
is too personal to expect anyone to have any robust and open discussions on. So
where I can, I steer clear of it.
I
hope I have been able to explain to you who is behind steadyaku47. You all are.
What you say to me in your comments to what I write…the numbers that visit my
blog …….the donations you sent me….all these moves me to write. Even as I sit
here alone in a suburb in Adelaide facing my PC and waiting for that oomph to
start writing, I know that FMZam, Shuk, Pak Oncu, Bernard, KoSong Café, Tiger,
Pak Arshad Raji, Jassman, Suci Dalam Debu, Lita, Pat, Geronimo, manhchikla,
…God you all know who you are… and lots and lots of Anon are waiting to see
what this old man is going to come up with this time. Let us hope that this old
man will not disappoint.
