A good point for pondering. If we keep helping others and doesn’t teach them to help themselves… we will be dead doing all those things. Empower them and we save ourselves a lot of trouble.
I was actually pissed off on Sunday morning. The reason is because of my uncle’s side issue. My uncle did not renewed his road tax (Typical continental car - Nissan) for the first year. The car is under his daughter-in-law’s name. Meaning there’s no NCD for the first time renewal. I don’t know how much is the cost for getting renewal. Thus, they wanted to borrow my car for fetching my cousin to work. It was on Wednesday night so I insist that they come and get the car from me instead I drive to his house. They decided not to go ahead to borrow the car from me. Then next morning, (thursday morning) they called again. I told them I need my car for work.
Naively, I thought things ended here. Nope. They called in a sudden, in the middle of night when I was on my routine dota-ing just to relieve some mind-bugging stress. My cousin want to borrow my car to fetch him to work. You come to get my car since I’m busy and running out of battery.
Initially, I told them last year that why bother getting a car that far beyond your capabilities. No, I don’t say that you are not suppose to have a great dream to buy nicer car than our so-called-national car. Prioritize lar what is important first. You do business and no extra money for turn around. Wtf buy car that you sure surely that you unable to allocate the money for roadtax and insurance next year?
Sssshhh…. Why would a man in his fifties listen to a kid. Pointless.]]>
