I CAN'T SING ... DOESN'T MEAN I WON'T SING

In many of my posts on my blog or comments on social media, I have said many times … I do what I like to do. I might not be able to do them well … at times I even make a fool out of myself and many times people laugh at what I do.

But that is OK ... I am doing what I like and it makes me feel good … I am not at all concerned if people want to laugh at me.

Those close to me will know that I like to sing … but I can’t sing. So, just croak lah 🐸🎀. To me singing is an expression … using the words of songs to maybe express past moments of my life or to express stories and experiences that may have touched my 60 years of life. I like doing that … a lot !

The point here is … be yourself … do what you like and feel good about.

Maybe you are a CEO of a huge MNC or a hotshot female lawyer or a big boss … try taking off that mask and be who you really are. A father or mother, a son or daughter, a husband or wife, a brother or sister … more importantly be yourself.

It need not be a photo of you holidaying on a yacht at Santorini Island … it could be just a photo of you and your spouse buying fish at the wet market. Well, you might say … wey, buy fish at the wet market also want to take photo meh? OK OK, it is just an example ya … you know what I am trying to say.

Not too long ago someone told be … aiyo why so stupid lah still drives an old car. Buy a new X70 lah … enjoy yourself, feel good.

Feel good with a new car ? NOPE.

Now, if I drive an old used car and keep some savings in the bank … I will feel very good. If I use the savings to buy a new car … I will LOOK very good.

You see, for me … εΉΈη¦ζ˜―δΈ€η§ζ„Ÿθ§‰,δΈζ˜―δΈ€δΈͺ倖葨 … meaning happiness is about how you feel … not what people see.

I do what I feel good about … that is enough. But people may not be able to see it … some may even think that I am stupid, a fool and laugh at me.

That’s OK … I have said it before and I will say it again … I don’t have to walk like I own the world … I walk like I don’t care who owns the world.
