Will Justice Be Served?

From a simple political cartoon, which is the intended satire had to face the wrath of publication act then the degree of sedition should be in many folds with serious penalties.

Seditious words are intended to encourage the overthrow of a state, where gullible people will follow blindly without hesitation. Imagine the mayhem and chaos, and the aftermath of such disastrous action.

It is indeed disturbing to see fifty people people revolting against the legitimacy of another religion, and in this case an Indian temple.

These are the people who do not understand their own religion well enough to earn the respect from those from other religious beliefs. This is a downright shameful act which brings shame to those sharing their same religious faith.

Will the day in court for the Notorious Twelve (from the fifty) to be served with the appropriate punishment or will it be a mockery for the world to laugh at?

It is just a few hours away and I will not miss it for the world to know what the outcome of the court’s decision will be.

Stay tuned, because I will be posting the outcome as soon as I can make it!

LIFE Has To Go On

See the enthusiasm, confidence and tenacity on his face? Can we ever be distressed, impatient or complaining for frivolous reasons after witnessing this?

He survived against all the odds; now Peng Shu Lin has astounded doctors by learning to walk again.

When his body was cut in two by a lorry in 1995, it was little short of a medical miracle that he lived. It took a team of more than 20 doctors to save his life. Skin was grafted from his head to seal his torso? But the legless Mr Peng was left only 78cm ( 2ft 6in ) tall.

Bedridden for years, doctors in China had little hope that he would ever be able to live anything like a normal life again. But recently, he began exercising his arms, building up the strength to carry out everyday chores such as washing his face and brushing his teeth.

Doctors at the China Rehabilitation Research Centre in Beijing found out about Mr Peng's plight late last year and devised a plan to get him up walking again. They came up with an ingenious way to allow him to walk on his own, creating a sophisticated egg cup-like casing to hold his body with two bionic legs attached to it.

He has been taking his first steps around the centre with the aid of his specially adapted legs and a resized walking frame. Mr Peng, who has to learn how to walk again, is said to be delighted with the device. What Self Confidence!

Dance like There Is No Tomorrow

In a Chinese modern dance competition on TV one very unique couple won one of the top prizes. The lady, in her 30's, was a dancer who had trained since she was a little girl. Later in life, she lost her entire left arm in an accident and fell into a state of depression for a few years.

Someone then asked her to coach a Children's dancing group. From that point on, she realized that she could not forget dancing. She still loved to dance and wanted to dance again. So, she started to do some of her old routines, but, having lost her arm, she had also lost her balance.

It took a while before she could even make simple turns and spins without falling. Then she heard of a man in his 20s who had lost a leg in an accident. He had also fallen into the usual denial, depression and anger type of emotional roller coaster. But, she was determined to find him and persuade him to dance with her.

He had never danced, and to dance with one leg, are you joking with me?

"No way!"

But, she didn't give up, and he reluctantly agreed thinking, "I have nothing else to do anyway." She started to teach him dancing. The two broke up a few times because he had no concept of how to use his muscles, how to control his body, and knew none of the basics of dancing. When she became frustrated and lost patience with him, he would walk out. Eventually, they came back together and started training seriously.

They hired a choreographer to design routines for them. She would fly high (held by him) with both arms (a sleeve for an arm) flying in the air. He could bend horizontally supported by one leg with her leaning on him.

In the competition, as you will see, they dance beautifully and they legitimately won the competition.

It is really amazing!
