Hello,
Buffet and some football
Spent my last few days in London. Met up with Azimah, Kerol, Hazel and managed to meet up with the BiBers as they arrived London from Paris. Based from what I heard and the pictures I've seen, they a hell lot of fun. I'm pretty damn envious of them. Well, the only fun thing I've done for my whole holiday is daytripping to London just to have lunch, DDR and 'cerita kedai kopi' with Azimah and Kerol (some part with Hazel). Crazy thing about buffets in London Chinatown is the different prices they set. Honest, we walked through Chinatown to and fro to see the best deal. After lunch, guess what??? We came across at least 3-4 other restaurants offering better buffet set and cheaper price!! Arghhh.
Went back to London the very next day (not because I like London) but for the match at Emirates. Yes! Arsenal Football Club's very own home ground. I KNOW!!!
WHAT THE HELL AM I THINKING GOING TO MY FAVOURITE CLUB'S ARCHRIVAL HOME GROUND!!! Other Manchester United fans... Chill! I went to watch Anderson play for Brazil. Yup! Brazil vs Sweden.
Brazil samba: Me at the upper tier of the Emirates Stadium
All ends well as I spent the next day walking from end to end of Hyde Park in a very nice and warm afternoon. Felt like ages since the weather was that good.
REPOST: Karma, Newton's Third Law and yourself.
I'm really finding it hard to shape up words lately. But to make this post long I'm going to repost my multiply.com blog post I posted last year.
Firstly, the definitions. Credits: www.wikipedia.com and my memory. (seriously...i am not THAT forgetful and dumb).
Karma (Sanskrit: कर्म from the root kṛ, "to do") is a word of ancient origin meaning action or activity and its subsequent results.
Karma is further defined as the sum of all that an individual has done, is currently doing and will do. Karma is not about retribution, vengeance, punishment or reward.
Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Notice the uncanny similarity in the definition and difference in the nature. Both Karma and Newton's third law have definitions that regards to actions. However Karma revolves around the result and is of religious nature while Newton's third law is obviously of scientific nature but revolves equally on both actions and results.
Ponder upon the meanings and believe me or not, when both ideas are put together, its is our daily life that revolves around it. Sayings such as 'What you give is what you get', 'What comes around goes around', 'You will pay for what you have done!!!' and much more, are actually derived from the two definition put together.
Prime example... Love life... You love a person in the beginning, during and towards the end of the relationship ALOT that you would give up almost everything you have and yet you have trouble of keeping the one you love. Then comes the bitter pain of ending a relationship. After the relationship ends, you would sit down and think of what ended the relationship. They say 'Sorry, I just lost feelings for you' or 'Sorry, this isn't working' or 'Sorry, being with you hurts me alot...' and more of those sorry and most probably fake reasons. (no pun intended)
Here's where it all come together. According to Newton's third law, we can see that the amount of love we give to a person will have an opposite effect upon us, that is pain of the same intensity. Next, according to karma it is something that that person has done to you that made you fall in love with him/her and also it is something you have done to him/her that causes the end of your relationship.
In the end of the day... Notice that it is YOU that is in control of what will happen to you in the end. It IS a tedious task to plan your steps ahead thoroughly. But I am not here to preach. So thats all I have to say for now. Sorry for the short blog for this edition. If you have any doubts, please drop a comment or two... thanx
