不要忽視個人的力量，一句簡單話就可以給人一份信心。

以前曾有人說過，一句話說得不好，不如不要說。
所以，關懷別人的話，不論說多少，只要場合對，都是很溫暖的。
餐桌上的燭光，好像幸福的光輝，沐浴著小鄭和他結褵十年的妻子小珍。
十年了，他們總是從這個餐館門口過，看賓士轎車裡走下的紳士和貴婦，昂首闊步地進入餐館。
『進去吃一頓？』他們想都不敢想。倒是經濟最緊的時候，小珍曾經想去?
只是再想想，那裡面的女侍有多年輕、漂亮，就沒勇氣了。
而今天，漂亮的女侍，居然為他們又拉椅子，又鋪餐巾。另一位男士則遞上酒單和菜單
『我們不喝酒！』小鄭像觸電似地把酒單擋了回去：『只吃個套餐就成了！』
儘管只是個簡單的套餐，兩個人也得好幾千塊。
向來愛說話的小珍，不斷叮囑自己：『要專心吃，把每一點滋味都吃出來。』
魚翅湯果然美極了，接著的鮑魚更鮮。
『要是孩子能來，同這鮑魚湯拌飯，他一定會吃好大一碗！』
小珍一面刮著碗底，一面感慨地說。
『問題是，如果人家規定孩子也得點菜，怎麼辦？』何況，今天是我們結婚十周年紀念?
『難得大手筆，就兩個人來點情調吧！』
最後上來的一道，是『富貴炒飯』，原以為沒什麼特別，吃到嘴裡才發覺滋味不凡，尤其是那鹹魚肉丁，每咬一口，都說不出地妙。
『糟了！』吃到一半，小珍突然觸電似地：『我們不該吃，可以把飯包回去啊！』
可是已經吃了，只剩下那麼一點點，如果再叫人包起來，必定會惹人笑話。
兩個人的筷子都停了，我看看你，你看看我。只怪自己太貪吃，居然沒想到家裡的老小。
『不要想了！把盤裡的也吃完！』小鄭說：『十年才一次嘛！』
『不！我要帶回去！』
『我不好意思說，妳說！』
女侍來收盤子了，一把端起所剩無幾的炒飯，
小珍突然揮手去攔：『等等！』
囁囁嚅嚅地：『對不起！能不能為我們打包帶走？我.......我 ...... 想家裡的孩子會愛吃。』
說著，從臉紅到了耳根。
『當然！』
『恐怕整個餐館都在笑我們了！』小鄭說。
『管他的！我只想到孩子跟媽。』
小珍低著頭：『我覺得我們好自私，自己出來吃這麼貴的東西。』
『不要提了！』
小鄭有點不高興：『我說過了，十年才這麼一次。』
付完帳，沒見打包的東西送來。
正在打包，『請二位稍候！』櫃抬小姐說。
才說完，就見經理親自提來一個大紙袋。
『對不起！讓二位久等了！因為再去炒了一盤，送給你們帶回去！』
經理笑著送二人出門：『家裡有小孩，真好！我的孩子都出國了，他
們小時候也最愛吃這種炒飯。』
看完這篇文章之後，深深覺得餐廳的經理實在會做生意。
從這一對夫妻用餐的神情及舉止，不難看出他們的身份跟地位，何況是身為經理的人。
如果你是那位經理，你大可依言將那一小撮的炒飯打包；
或者再炒一盤送給這二位夫婦！結果呢 .....？
我想關鍵出在最後那句話 "經理送二人出門：
『家裡有小孩，真好！我的孩子都出國了，他們小時候也最愛吃這種炒飯。』
他可以老實的打包，也可以不說這句話，但所得的結果是截然不同。
一個是你的所有作為變成在 "突顯他人的卑微 "，另外一個充滿了愛及關懷，以及保留了尊嚴。
他不但提供美味給人家，同時也照顧到人們內心的深處。
日後，這對夫妻經濟改善了，這家餐廳一定是回味往日時光的地方；
也或許他們會將經理這種如『菩薩般柔軟言』給傳播下去。
我想語言是一種力量，可以扶起一個人，也可以推落一個人。

Petai Power....a kind of vege

Little did you know ...... after reading THIS, you'll NEVER look at petai in the same way again!

Petai contains three natural sugars -sucrose, fructose and glucose. Combined with fiber, petai gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proved that just two servings of petai provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder petai is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes. But energy isn't the only way petai can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

Depression:
According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND among people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating petai. This is because petai contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS(premenstrual syndrome):
Forget the pills - eat petai. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anaemia: (Kurang darah)
High in iron, petai can stimulate the production of haemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anaemia.

Blood Pressure:
This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the petai industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power :
200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped through their exams this year by eating petai at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Constipation: (Sembelit)
High in fiber, including petai in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers:
One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a petai milkshake, sweetened with honey. The petai calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.


Heartburn:
Petai has a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating petai for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness :
Snacking on petai between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

Mosquito bites :
Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of the petai skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves:
Petai is high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.

Overweight: (Terlebih berat, obesity)
Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and crisps. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.

Ulcers:
Petai is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

Temperature control :
Many other cultures see petai as a 'cooling' fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In holland, for example, pregnant women eat petai to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) :
Petai can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer, tryptophan.

Smoking: (Sapa kuat merokok, kena makan petai banyak sket dari biasa!)
Petai can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress:
Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium petai snack.

Strokes:
According to research in 'The New England Journal of Medicine, ' eating petai as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%'.

Warts: (Ketuat, ketumbuhan kecil di badan, muka)
Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of petai and place it on the wart. Carefully hold the petai in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

So, as you can see, petai really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrates, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around. So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, 'A Petai a day keeps the doctor away'.

Golden Compass

Just sw it today an newspaper abt it first cast at 7/Dec/2007 at internet.

I like this kind of carton movie with action ,alway with a small little hero holding the secret of power and hiding beside the greater enemy of human n animals.

My baby wira is serving me very well during the year from 2k till now. I personally think it is time to get him retire because i feel he should rest and i very proud of it to make myself till today in good hand.

Budget , car park , loan , model , performance ,safety is my concern .

If i bought a car which is too expensive then i will get myself into trouble of 'chaining the loan' again for a few year.

If i get a new car i will affair it will get stolen by those ^^&^%$##^ thieft.

if i get a big cc performance car then next year that %$^%%**^* gov raise the price of fuel again i get catch..

I know that my baby wira will not serve well to protect me and my future own family because of too much 'druker' in kl area. Should i stay back in home after 8pm everyday just in case some @$***%() driver make their mistake to kiss my car ???

What kind of car to choice ? japan/ continental. If i still young i will choice japan if i'm a mature people i will choice a 2nd continental because it is more safer . But also mean more money to maintain those continental car as well...What is the best ????
