Times that were lost
Have we ever reflects for some memories which we never remember? Well..at least until someone mentioned it to you. Then you will say.. "Oh ya, that's right."
I have encountered a few times where I cannot even recall the incidents even though someone mentioned them to me. "Really? Is that really what happened then?" For the life of me, I just could not recalled the incidents. It was as though the time was lost to me.
Sometimes I wonder if there were a black spot in my brain which blocked some of the memories. Some doctors said that when things are too painful, then your brain will blocked the memories to ease your pain. Sound clever right?
"No matter what your age, several underlying causes can bring about memory problems. Forgetfulness can arise from stress, depression, lack of sleep or thyroid problems. Other causes include side effects from certain medicines, an unhealthy diet or not having enough fluids in your body (dehydration)." - Mr Google's reasoning
Whatever the reasons are, I wish I could remember those days - every single one of them. Especially times with those who had passed on. The time when my mom made sambal ready to eat for me. I cannot recalled this at all. I seems to have lost some of the time of my life especially the year from 1988 to 1990.
Those were the worst time of my life when I felt so alone with no one to listen to my woes. Things happened and I cant recalled most of the incidents.
Anyway, I supposed we became stronger mentally from all these experiences. My life could be made a blockbuster film as I had gone every possible hardships a life could offer. The sad things are, I had no one supporting and consoled me. Or maybe, I may have forgotten about them??
Life experiences are test given to us and we are the one who can overcome them. God will not test those who cant overcome them.. I believe..

WORKING BIASED - WHAT DO YOU CALLED THESE MANAGEMENT TYPE?
Year 2023 gave me a new change in my working life.
After 4 years 2 months of spending my working life in Pulau Langkawi, I has been transferred to Alor Setar branch with effect from 12th June 2023. That is my daughter's, Auni's birthday. New place, new environment.
Actually I only have a year to go before my retirement and I just do not understand the immature thinking of the management in RHB Bank. They do not appreciate good people but they penalised all these people when they could not manage them. Mind you, they do this only to skin color which differ from them.
I remember a case where the branch has lost a few thousands due to staff misconduct. The manager was promoted to the regional office. Whilst a branch which gets "fair" rating, the manager was down grade and transferred out. Other managers with the same skin color who got "fair" ratings still became the manager until now...!!

The thought that hounds us

My youngest son berkhatan...
It was 23rd December 2010..The day my youngest son finally agreed to have the circumcision. He said on one condition.: "amir nak tidor masa dia potong" so I looked up the hospitals and clinics in Sg Petani but none have it done under anesthetics. The only place that I could find is Kedah Medical Centre (KMC) in Alor Setar. So, off we went there and had an appointment made.
New phase of life for Amir

PRINCIPLES OF LIFE...PAUSE, REVIEW AND GO..
None of us wanted bad things to happen but things do happens and our next course of action will always determine the outcome. What you give is what you get back. If you want the good things then take a good actions.
Our actions are within our control. We had a choice to make things better or worst.
Easier said than done. Yes. It takes great control to stop before taking action; especially when it involves emotions. I believe we had experience bad decision made and regretting immediately. We start wishing we had stop first before taking actions.
