Don't Make That One Bad Apple Spoils The Bunch


It's Sunday evening and the weather is quite gloomy as we speak, a perfect weather for an evening nap. We have been out since morning but here I am now, plonking on a sofa with my laptop on my lap, typing a blog entry 'vigorously' for you to have a read! Haha...

What would you think of someone who has a very bad past life? Would you judge him/her for who they were before? Do you have the privilege to do so? Why is that so? Even if he/she is changed and has become a better person, indeed? Does that means, even if he/she has repented for all the bad things he/she did in his/her past life, he/she will still be judged? Don't you think it appears to be a little bit iniquitous to you?

"Everyone will never escape the chance to make mistakes. People make mistakes, and it is for us to forgive and to forget".

That is why we have the word  (to) 'repent' or 'repentance' in our dictionary, isn't it? *smile*  The chance for a person to change for a better person, that is! I don't think it will be that difficult for us to be less judgmental but more forgiving for all those lovely individuals around us, I suppose?

"First impressions are important, but everyone deserves a second chance"

Let's do that for the betterment  of the community. It will means a lot to them.

Well, take care now and have a spectacular Sunday, either on your own or with your loved ones.

Three, Four, Five or Never?


Is there in anyway a second chance works?

What would you do if you gave someone a second chance for them to re-gain your trust or even better, to make good of the many things that has gone bad... but it seems that it was never is meaningful to them as it is to you?

What happens when you thought that this one person have changed for the betterment, but then you found out that he is not? In fact, he's becoming an expert in telling tales, that even if you tell the many tales to little toddlers they will think that it is the most amazing fairytale told ever, just a notch down from the famous Alice in Wonderland!

An old proverbs;

‘A lie is halfway round the world before the truth has got its boots on'

And another was;

'One lie leads to another'.

Can you actually trust someone who had once, lie to you? And what if, being gullible and you actually did, but then you found out that he lied again... Is there in anyway for you to give him a third chance? How many chances would there be before he stops lying, then? Three, four, five or never? It would be so much easier if you could see his nose becomes longer once he is telling lies, just like our dear Pinocchio boy!

Therefore, is a second chance worth it, or there is no such thing as a 'second chance'?

How would you know if that person is telling you the truth and nothing but the truth now, if he has a record of telling tales of the nastiest lie to you before?

I don't know and the fact that I do not know creeps me out, BIG TIME.

What say you?
