The pot is calling the kettle black

June 29, 2007

Some people have tendency to condemn a bad value, bad thinking, bad act, etc.  However, the sad news is they, themselves, might do it.

This boils down to the idea that : “I should think that way.” But not necessary : “I will do it.”

A very realistic example

If someone is not feeling well, what will you do?  He seems need help. I would think I ’should’ help him. Perhaps ask him how he felt.

Above is what I should think.

That’s why I did.

I was in a train. One guy vomited, he looked sick. Instead of helping him, I alighted and boarded the next train.

Psychic

“Aren’t you a bit surprised that the only message that the dead seem to be able to give to us is someone had a nickname Miss Piggy? And they can only tell us that, you know, I had a heart condition?….I want to hear just one of the psychics today tell me when is there going to be the next bus bombing in Tel Aviv so we can avoid going on that bus.”

–Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, on “Larry King Live,” March 6, 2001

Patriotism

Who said Indonesian Chinese doesn’t love his country?

Upon living outside, studying outside, working outside of the country, he still wants to make Indonesia better.

That’s enough, I think, even he can’t achieve it.
