.....

Admit it... 'you're' falling prey into the blogging world as well! The 'you' are not really 'you'... The 'you' I meant here are those who criticised bloggers once... especially before our country's GREAT general election.


One: Bloggers are liars! - Now that 'you' too are blogging, are we suppose to call 'you' a liar too?

Two: Bloggers are not trustworthy! - Are 'you' saying that you too are not t.r.u.s.t.w.o.r.t.h.y?

Three: Bloggers are bias! - Yes.. of course. Bloggers are human too! Are 'you' trying to tell me that the local media are not bias?

Four: Bloggers create stories! - What's the problem with it? We need entertainment too! That reminds me of a common Malay saying, "Siapa yang makan cili, dialah yang merasa pedasnya"


Maybe we are kids, adults, veterans or so. But each of us is gifted with the ability to think. We are able to analyse and to make our preference on which to believe. When we criticised it doesn't mean we are going against 'you'. Nobody loves trouble or war. We criticised because we want things to be better. When no other options are available for us to channel our voices, what's wrong for us and for 'them' to blog? Also, there's another saying in Chinese, '清者自清'. Besides the ability to think, we are also gifted with many other senses whether to see, listen, feel and so on.

P/s: This is purely a random thought I had in my mind. Not meant to offend anyone and if it does, my sincere apology. Also, please re-think about this if you are really offended - Siapa yang makan cili, dialah yang terasa pedasnya.
