This recent article posted online "The trials of teen mothers" has bring a rather different perspective for reasons leading to child/baby dumping. The mistake might be the same elsewhere but the journey is still much different from the western societies. Traditional asian values still hold unmarried pregnant ladies as disgraced group.
However, the family must realize the universal value of support and love for any family member that has made a mistake, in the case an unwanted pregnancy.
Western values might differ with Eastern values of treating unmarried pregnant family members but it is time for the families in the East to adopt a culture of receptivity and forgiveness and support for a member that fell into the mistake of unwanted pregnancies.
Parents who were too busy in building material wealth have forgone the importance of building a relationship with their children.
Education policies and educators continue to shun the importance sex education.
Society's continue emphasis of the "feel good" factor rather than the "do good" factor is mainly be blamed. Profit-minded culture in business rather than charitable-minded culture. The ever greed for more money and physical pleasure has brought cast a shadow over the good spirit of human nature.
In the end of the day, the ever increasing cases of baby dumping holds everyone in the society accountable that includes myself. Let us all change our heart and minds for society that is caring, loving and charitable.

Baby/ Fetus dumping getting rampant these days in Malaysia
I am disgusted and appalled by such disgrace act, even more when the child is left to die in the trash..etc. Some news link by clicking here.
These babies may be the result of unplanned or unwanted pregnancies by large. But how could some one with so little respect for life! Social illness of rampant wild living without sense of responsibility and regard for life and morality.
Baby dumping is a good indicator of plunging moral values in ones society to the bottom.
I support the call of various NGOs, to criminalize baby dumping and prosecute the offenders for murder if post-mortem reveals that the baby/infant was born alive.
In addition, I support the call for prominent lawyer and opposition leader YB Karpal Singh (Democratic Action Party National Chairman) for capital punishment for the offence of child raping. If not, a life-time imprisonment!
May the Lord have mercies on the soul of these poor innocent children and I am sure He does and loves them dearly in heaven at the very moment.

Love plant earth, love its' Creator
For people who believe in God, the Creator of Heavens and earth. Enjoy the youtube clip with sense of thankfulness and awesomeness of God. Love and appreciate what God has created...
For atheists, enjoy the youtube clip and say it out loud that "there is no God, there in no God" for at least 7 times throughout the clip and you'll passed as one of the scientists that say all life on earth is result of the "Big Bang", "Chance" & "Evolution".

That's all for this time. Next time, I will blog about an amazing man of God. Whose faith, spirit and courage will stand the test of time, a person that is close to the heart of God through his faith the thankfulness to God for his life, a great person- Nick Vujicic.
God bless.

Some extra time to think about alopecia
Hi everyone,
It is funny that now I'm waiting for the official news/words from a few potential employers...suddenly, I have so much time for my own...couple of hours of packing or helping others to pack, some jogging, sit-ups and push up...here and there, watch my favourite sitcoms "Everybody loves Raymond"...I still have plenty of time to spare.
Well, it gives me time to think of my alopecia more often, its like I feel more aware of my alopecia than before I was still a full-time student ( happy to say that I WAS a full-time student). So, after so many years of schooling and dealing with alopecia universalis. Now, i'm in the transition period to become a full-time working adult. So, where am I at coping with alopecia? Full acceptance?- I dont think so, its pretty impossible when everyone around you pay so much attention to their hair or people staring at my smooth legs. But I'm not sad with my alopecia but rather I am proud of it. Alopecia has not only define how I look but also how I live my life. A life blessed with so many friends/ angels sent by God.
If God asked me today: would I trade off my friends for my hair back/ a couple of inches taller?....My answer would be an affirmative: NO!
A couple of reasons why I said "NO"...
1. NO. Because beauty comes from within, I may look better with hair and a couple of inches taller...but what do I get in the end of life? No matter what, our body will return to dust one day. 100 years from now, people will not remember how good looking I was but rather how many friends that cherished and celebrate a person's life.
2. NO. Alopecia may have lead me to my friends and how could I abandon my friends just have my hair back? The amount of love, support, prayers and even money pour into shaping who I am today can never be replaced with a full head of hair which would turn gray and decay one day.
So, at the end of the day. I must admit to the fact that world put more/ over emphasis on physical appearance and outward beauty but I will not surrender anything that truly matters in life for physical appearance. A very tough war! And time will only tell that I have make the correct answer...as we all should go for things that will stand the test of time. :)...hair may come and go but genuine friendship will always have a place in your heart and spirit. :)
So, God...I thank YOU for who I am today!
God bless everyone.
