That everyone you meet deserves to be greeted with a smile.
Just drop in any government office in this Bolehland, and I believe you will disagree with what you have learned.
You see beautiful slogans everywhere, but do they really practise 'what they preach'?
Rakyat didahulukan,
Pencapaian diutamakan!
Yet, you see unfriendly faces at the counters, don't you?

Anonymous I too, have learned that…
The best classroom in the world is at the feet of an elderly person.
But still-not-dead-yet-Mahathir ruined this humble philosophy.
Being kind is more important than being right.
But UMNO does not believe in this.
When you plan to get even with someone, you are only letting that person continue to hurt you.
But we need to get even with UMNO to PREVENT it from hurting us.
Love, not time, heals all wounds.
But UMNO deserves no love.
Everyone you meet deserves to be greeted with a smile.
But I can’t see myself doing that if I have the misfortune to meet Ibrahim Ali.
When you harbor bitterness, happiness will dock elsewhere.
But I’m really, really happy hating UMNO and Perkasa.
One should keep his words both soft and tender, because tomorrow he may have to eat them.
But try being soft and tender to UMNO and Perkasa and see what happens?
Everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while you're climbing it.
But UMNO wants to live on top of the mountain and enjoy all the happiness and growth WITHOUT having to climb it!
The less time I have to work with, the more things I get done...
You’re exactly right! UMNO and Perkasa have no time to work as they need to spend it on how to enrich themselves without working!
I have also learned that “Love thy enemy” is true because UMNO, MCA, MIC have been sleeping with each other for 53 years. Yuk!!!

The real meaning of:
"Matthew 5:39 "But I say to you, do not resist an evil person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also."
Give a serious offender two chances OMLY - unless you have more than two cheeks!
