Defining Marriage

By -

It's been a long time since I actually wrote, been pretty busy with so many things happening, nevertheless, had a wonderful conversation from the airport to bro's house with Abe Burcin (Khan & Sons' Turkish supplier who has become part of the family)

He has looks that makes women melt and slang that makes me laugh!!!, like in Thai, Pierce Brosnan speaks Turkish in the movies.

Anywho, he spoke bout marriage today, of all topics cause my bro told him earlier that I am getting married soon... So like the other 3/4 million folks who spoke to me about marriage, his is latest and most unique I'd say...

'Love in marriage is like air-con in car', he said... and you could see the dumbfounded look on my face, I wondered if it meant that marriage is hot at times and cold most times... and he went on to explain... (thank God!)

I couldn't place his slang here but the simplest explanation would be, a car is dysfunctional without the basics such as tyres, engine, steering and brake. But having air-conditioning in car is a compliment to it... to have a lovely, comfortable and relaxing journey, you need air-con, but without which, the car could still function but with lots of discomfort...

Like that, a loving marriage makes a whole lot difference in one's life but should never be the main criteria, the main criteria is the tyre and engine, the ability to know your responsibility as a husband and to ensure that you have a marriage where both parties plays their role...

Things that are blinded by love in the beginning are the same things that would make a vast difference and affect the livelihood of a marriage, this could not be far from the truth as witnessed by me among people who are married with kids calling their marriage off due to things that are absurd and unreasonable!!!

That being said, it is paramount that one should do all they can to live by the quote 'it is not the destination, but the journey that matters'... have a safe trip, Godspeed and keep the air-con on buddy... ;)

    sometimes nexus ji, there is not a single air-con but people keep thinking the cold air from outside is the air-con in car

‘Datuk’ Shahrukh Khan Detained for 2 Hours in United States… So???

Saw in the news today, media abuzz on SRK being held for 2 hours at Newark International Liberty Airport. This reminded me of my old article I posted sometime back… Datuk Shahrukh Khan.... maa ehhhhh!!!   I bet fans around the world are throwing tantrums on the detention incident and as expected, the Indian media and political figures are calling for an equal treatment to be accorded to US VIPs and public figures during their visit to India…   And I’m certain the media of Malaysia would be joining the bandwagon to express their ‘disappointment’ on Datuk being detained… Certainly criticism and some experts would express their takes on the issue…   Let me bring everyone (including avid fans) back to reality… US is a sovereign nation that upholds law & order above everything else… When there is an uproar on discrimation, US is a country that does not discriminate definitely because apart from the President who travels on Air Force One, EVERYONE else is subje...

Saffron Hills - Our Dream Home In The Making...

Entrance Path to Denai Alam Denai Alam , a secluded township 10KM from Shah Alam city has been one of our favourite places to reside in Klang Valley. Connected by the Guthrie Corridor Expressway and away from the hustle and bustle of the metropolitan Kuala Lumpur. Our discovery of Denai Alam for the first time was approximately 3 years ago, thanks to Shane bhai but at that time, we just couldn't afford to pay the price of the properties. The unique bit of Denai Alam lies in the developer behind the whole project, Sime Darby Property Berhad with accolades of high-end projects in Malaysia that are well thought-off and features unique architectures. Denai Alam is no different in presenting the hallmark of Sime Darby in terms of township development. A year ago, we were browsing for properties in Denai Alam and we even got a property agent to show us available units, among the various types of properties, Opulenia  made us wish we had the money to get our dream home, but as i...

Kawasaki Versys Stock Shortage

By -
It's coming close to 3 months that we placed our booking for Kawasaki Versys and still, up to now there is not a single indication of the arrival of the bikes. It's really reflecting badly on Kawasaki as a top notch manufacturer to be lacking in their production. Makes me question the competency of the production managers they have at Kawasaki! The latest reason we're hearing is that Kawasaki is having a tough time producing other models as they are rushing to fulfill the 250cc bikes that were ordered by Royal Malaysian Police! All in all, it is Kawasaki's lost as the competitors are fast taking the opportunity to get their products out in the market, giving second thoughts to people like me who are getting tired of waiting. So somebody up there in the office better be taking some actions or the consumers could turn to be the deciding factor to a dwindling confidence that is shedding faster than you could say 'Vroom Vroom'...
