Inspire and Be Inspired

Today is the second day of  Raya! Most people are spending their holiday with family and friends in this special occasion. Yesterday, I saw a bunch of foreigner (guessing they are either from Indonesia or Bangladesh) in the public transport, all get dressed-up nicely and tidy to enjoy the first day of holiday!.

Have a sudden thought of how wonderful, if I were to be the same like them to have holiday with family for a special vacation together again. Since the day I came back from Labuan until now almost a month time, I have never had a chance to even eat with whole family together. Anyway, I still need to work on this holiday.

Currently, I am working in a toys shop "PHOENIX COLLECTIBLES". This shop is basically selling hot toys and sideshow toys which are made from Hong Kong and US. There are various types of toy such as Spiderman, Superman, Predator, Iron man, General Zod and many more of the figures you might be familiar with, perhaps they are one of your favourite character too? This job is an easy going job, what I needed to do is mainly to stay in the shop and wait for people to come in.( such a lifeless job). Yeah, is quite lifeless and I am bored to hell now. Luckily, they provided me wifi, so that I can access to internet just to fill up my time when there is no customer. Many people tend to ask, especially all my friends that come over and when they look at the price, they automatically will started to ask me " what!? you kidding me? This little toys can get up to RM100? You must be crazy! Got people buy one ah?" All kind of reaction and questions they will make after they saw all the prices. HAHA. All this toys is for two types of people to buy, first is those who really like the figure of it. Mostly they started during teenagers time, around 12years old an above.( For sure they have no financial problem and which their parents are afford to buy for their wants). Other than that, they are surely the second types which is they buy all figures for keeping purpose to invest for some benefit. They make this toys as an investment, in hoping they can sell to others in a much higher prices in future. Some may even says that it is better of buying this toys than going for clubbing or smoking, which is a good hobbies and investment for their life. Different people has different kind of perspective towards all these toys. In my opinion, if you are happy in doing things that you like and it will not affect other people, then why not?

By the way, now I would like to share something about a video that I had watched in youtube. This video has more or less inspired me and I think is good for us to reflect and practice this together in making the better world to live. There are two young man was searching for two unemployed people for a shooting. They found men, one black and one white. This two unemployed men are required to arm wrestle and see who wins. The winners is rewarded a 100 dollar. (but they are not told the loser is going to have a 50dollar too). After telling the rules of the game and reward of it, they started the challenge. At the end, the black man has won the game and being rewarded the 100 dollar! Who knows, soon after he got the 100 dollar, he then give his 50 dollar to the white man. The white man was reluctant to accept it at first, because he accepted the facts that he has lose the match, but the black man insisted to give him the money. This is what I am really inspired of. How many people are willing to give the others when they have got the money, if you were the black man, will you give you 50 dollar to the white? That man don't even have a money, he even told the two young men that the most he will get to beg is 6 dollar a day. Imagine, he could have get a better clothes or even eat better after getting the 100 dollar. But he choose to share the half of it to the other person. This shows that, there is still love, courage and compassion people that live in this world and he had showed us that it's possible to have a win win situation. The world is enough resources for the man in this earth, but not the greed of a man". Every day is a day to inspire and be inspired.
