Clapping With One Hand
Parents are capable of giving a bloody lot of good advice that their children wouldn't believe it. Come to think of it, children never do believe their parents until it's too late and something bad has happened because it is what children do and what parents complain about to other parents, but that is for another day.
Anyway, parents - God bless them - are a silo of wisdom. In fact, I will go so far as to say my own parents are the Fort Knox of sound and sensible advice. So the next time you are in search of some advice worth its weight in gold, feel free to make an appointment with either my Mum or Dad during consultation hours. Make sure to bring your own pen and paper.

Just the other day out popped another gem in the form of 'Never be a love beggar'. At first I misheard it as 'Never be a beggar lover' or probably 'Never be a bagel lover' which prompted me to raise an eyebrow and mutter 'Say what?'. That of course, invited a disapproving look from my parents. But after being repeated for a second time - or was it a third? - only did it dawn upon me what was it that they were trying to say.
Jangan jadi pengemis cinta. Kalau orang taknak kita sekali, kita taknak dia sepuluh kali.
Let us imagine for a while, instances where this advice can be applied to good measure:
1) Phantom of the Opera
2) The Little Mermaid
3) The Hunchback of Notre Dame
4) Memey and Norman Hakim (Well, this probably doesn't fit in but I couldn't help it)
5) You who are reading this
Any questions?
