Loyalty , security or stupidity ?

Posted on February 22nd, 2010 in Life Teaching by SirSimplySaw

Some of us like to have plenty of choices in life while some prefer to be conservative and stick to their original choice all the time.

I got this friend of my , he is very different from me especially in making choices. Everytime when we go and have a meal at this so called ‘Western Food’  places back in Malaysia he will always and I mean ALWAYS order ‘Chicken Chop’ no matter which shop we went to as for me I always order whatever the special is of that shop. I always like to try new things although sometimes it is not too new just different name given to it.

You see by sticking to your original choices  you are always quite sure of what to expect from the experience to the taste to the texture or shall I say it is a safe choice. While if you like to try new things or new places you might get some not so pleasant experience but at times you will be suprise by what the new places can offer.

I always believe life should be about having fun and trying new stuff, most of the time I would like to keep my mind and option open to EVERYTHING. I mean at times some of the stuff that I tried or explore might sound a little bit crazy but hey NO PAIN NO GAIN.

BUT

At times I am not sure is it because I like trying new things or I got bored easily with the same ol same ol. You see maybe I am just saying that I like to try new things just make myself feel less guilty when throwing those old things away.

Well I did let go of some stuff that I am not so interested in quite alot of times. I am not someone that will cling on something or someone that I am no longer interested in. I ‘BACK OUT , PULL BACK and LET GO’ it is as simple as that just like years back when they have this advertistment teaching you how to use the self service petrol pump ‘ANGKAT , TOLAK , MASUK , PICIT’ ( LIFT, PUSH , PENETRATE , SQUEEZE ) .

Ahha I can’t believe after so many years I can still remember that phrase, I believe the advert first appeared in the mid 90s. Kudos to the advertising team that did that commercial. I guess the reason I still remember it simply because it is so catchy and at times can be very dirty. I am sure you get what I mean you dirty minded people. I mean any guy will get the wrong idea if a girl whisper this to his ears  ‘ LIFT , PUSH , PENETRATE , SQUEEZE ‘ am I in the wrong for thinking this way ?

Anyway back to the topic , you see some people will keep on working at the same company , same place , same position and some worst case scenario same old pay for a very VERY VERY long time even though they no longer have the passion or even the soul to work there anymore. Is it because of their loyalty , security or stupidity ?

While they are some people who still in a relationship even there are no love between them anymore or a relationship turned sour especially those married couples. I don’t know why it is so difficult for one to say ‘I don’t have feelings for you anymore and I believe now is the right time for both of us to move forward instead of just wasting our time with each other’  . Is it because of loyalty , security or stupidity ?

Then we have this kind of people who sort of claim they are a disciple/son/follower of some religion but yet they don’t really understand the teaching of it or connected to God. So what they do is simply follow it blindly without really understand the whole thing. Is it because of loyalty , security or stupidity ?

You see Saw ain’t those kind of guy ,
-Saw say no when things isn’t right
-Saw say no when he no longer have the passion
-Saw seek new things if the old one expires
-Saw don’t like wasting his time on things he has no interest in
-Saw move on when the right time to do so

That’s why most of the time Saw isn’t the perfect Son / Student / Partner / Friend / Teacher / Employee / Follower /ETC to most people because Saw has the mind of his own and the guts to do the things he wants. Saw did not follow blindly as he keep on seeking what’s best for him , it might affects the others but Saw knew if he didn’t do what he did he will regret it at the end of the day.

Don’t get me wrong , I am not asking you to be a playboy , frog , fanatics or whatsoever but I am just telling you to let it go when you have to let it go, to hold on to it when you have to hold on to it.

So am Saw in the wrong ? Well Saw is not according to Saw. Is all this loyalty , security or stupidity ?


Ps. I couldn’t find that ‘ Angkat , Tolak , Masuk , Picit ‘ advert anywhere. If any of you bump into it could you be kind enough to share it with me. Many thanks.
