[True Story] Poisoning Mother-In-Law

A long time ago in China , a girl named Li-Li got married and went to live with her husband and mother-in-law. Li-Li found that she couldn't get along at all with her mother-in-law. Their personalities were very different, and Li-Li was angered by many of her mother-in-law's habits. In addition, the mother-in-law criticized Li-Li constantly.

Days passed, and weeks passed. Li-Li and her mother-in-law never stopped arguing and fighting. But what made the situation even worse was that, according to ancient Chinese tradition, Li-Li had to bow to her mother-in-law and obey her every wish. All the anger and unhappinessin the house was causing Li-Li's poor husband great distress.

Finally, Li-Li could not stand her mother-in-law' s bad temper and dictatorship any longer, and she decided to do something about it. Li-Li went to see her father's good friend, Mr Huang, who sold herbs. She told him the situation and asked if he would give her some poison so that she could solve the problem once and for all.

Mr Huang thought for awhile, and finally said, "Li-Li, I will help you solve your problem, but you must listen to me and obey what I tell you.

Li-Li said, "Yes, Mr Huang, I will do whatever you tell me to do".

Mr. Huang went into the back room, and returned in a few minutes with a package of herbs.

He told Li-Li, "You can't use a quick-acting poison to get rid of your mother-in-law, because that would cause people to become suspicious. Therefore, I have given you a number of herbs that will slowly build up poison in her body. Every other day prepare some delicious meal and put a little of these herbs in her serving. Now, in order to make sure that nobody suspects you when she dies, you must be very careful to act very friendly towards her. Don't argue with her, obey her every wish, and treat her like a queen".

Li-Li was so happy. She thanked Mr Huang and hurried home to start her plot of murdering her mother-in-law.

Weeks went by, and months went by, and every other day, Li-Li served the specially treated food to her mother-in-law. She remembered what Mr Huang had said about avoiding suspicion, so she controlled her temper, obeyed her mother-in-law, and treated her like her own mother.

After six months had passed, the whole household had changed. Li-Li had practised controlling her temper so much that she found that she almost never got mad or upset. She hadn't had an argument with her mother-in-law in six months because she now seemed much kinder and easier to get along with.

The mother-in-law's attitude toward Li-Li changed, and she began to love Li-Li like her own daughter. She kept telling friends and relatives that Li-Li was the best daughter-in- law one could ever find. Li-Li and her mother-in-law were now treating each other like a real mother and daughter. Li-Li's husband was very happy to see what was happening.

One day, Li-Li came to see Mr Huang and asked for his help again. She said, "Dear Mr Huang, please help me to keep the poison from killing my mother-in-law! She's changed into such a nice woman, and I love her like my own mother. I do not want her to die because of the poison I gave her".

Mr Huang smiled and nodded his head. "Li-Li, there's nothing to worry about. I never gave you any poison. The herbs I gave you were vitamins to improve her health. The only poison was in your mind and your attitude toward her, but that has been all washed away by the love which you gave to her".

Waris Jari Tengah

Lagenda tentang Harimau Jadian sebenarnye bukanlah cerita baru di Malaysia. Malah telah ada drama, filem dan buku yang direka untuk menceritakannya. Tentu kita masih ingat filem Waris Jari Hantu lakonan Rushdi Ramli dan Maya Karin tidak berapa lama dahulu (tetapi diulang tayang hampir setiap tahun). Selain itu, banyak versi berkaitan Harimau Jadian ini. Ada yang mengatakan ilmu ini berasal dari Jambi, Rao, Acheh dan sebagainya.

Aku bukan nak bercerita tentang asal usul or review filem dan sebagainya. Aku just nak bercerita serba sedikit tentang kisah berkaitan Harimau Jadian ini dan anda bolehlah tentukan sendiri samada ia adalah mitos semata-mata atau realiti yang sebenar. Jika dicari dalam Google, ada yang menyatakan ia adalah mitos tapi ada juga yang menyokong pernyataan bahawa ia adalah benar-benar wujud.

Kesimpulan aku, Allah Maha Berkuasa lagi Maha Mengetahui. Setiap kejadian adalah atas kehendakNya. Makhlus halus memang wujud dan ia banyak diceritakan di dalam Al-Quran. Begitu juga makhluk jelmaan. Makhluk jin juga pernah menjelma seperti manusia dan begitulah sebaliknya. Bagaiman mereka mendapatnya, dan adakah ia diperolehi dengan cara yang betul, sesat, warisan yang tak mampu dielak dan sebagainya adalah urusan Allah SWT.

Abu Darda' telah meriwayatkan hadis yang berbunyi:
"Allah menjadikan jin itu 3 golongan. Golongan ular, kala jeengking dan binatang tanah, golongan semacam angin di udara dan satu golongan di atas mereka hisab dan balasan. Dan Allah menciptakan manusia 3 jenis, satu jenis seperti binatang.

Ikuti kisah selanjutnya yang diceritakan kepada aku oleh seorang orang lama. Ia bukanlah bertujuaan untuk mengaibkan sesiapa. Ia hanyalah sekadar pengetahuan kepada kita semua. Cerita ini bukanlah satu-satunya cerita Harimau Jadian di Malaysia ini kerana rumpun Melayu di sini memang kaya dengan ilmu dan warisan dari tanah seberang, tapi aku ceritakannya kerana ia adalah sangat dekat dengan diriku.

[Joke] Tanpa Telinga

Johan dilahirkan tanpa kedua telinganya, tetapi walaupun cacat dia berjawatan tinggi di sebuah bank. Dia sangat marah kalu ada orang yang mempersoalkan tentang telinga.

Satu hari dia mahu mengambil kerani baru dan tiga orang disenaraipendek untuk sesi temuduga.

Calon pertama seorang lelaki yang mempunyai penampilan yang baik. Diakhir temuduga, Johan bertanya satu soalan kepada lelaki itu, "Awak nampak tak sesuatu yang ganjil pada saya?"
"Ya, tapi minta maaf kalau saya kata tuan tak ada telinga, macam ayam" jawab lelaki itu dengan jujur. Merasa terhina dengan jawapan itu, Johan mengusirnya keluar dari pejabat.

Calon kedua ialah seorang perempuan yang berpengalaman bekerja di bank hampir 5 tahun. Dia lebih baik dari calon pertama tadi. Di akhir sesi temuduga, Johan bertanya soalan yang sama ditanya pada calon pertama, "Awak nampak tak sesuatu yang ganjil pada saya?"

"Ya. saya heran bagaimana tuan boleh mendengar saya dengan baik, sedangkan tuan duduk jauh dari saya." puji perempuan itu. Sebaik mendengar jawapan dari perempuan itu, Johan berang dan menghalaunya keluar.

Calon terakhir adalah yang terbaik, walaupun masih muda dia telah bekerja lebih 8 tahun di bank. Selain bijak dia juga tampan dan bergaya. Seperti calon terdahulu Johan bertanya soalan serupa, "Awak nampak tak sesuatu yang ganjil pada saya?"

"Ya. Awak pakai contact lens," jawab pemuda itu menahan perasannya dari tergelak.

Walaupun terkejut, Johan gembira dengan jawapan pemuda itu. Dia hairan kerana pemuda itu sangat teliti dan dapat melihatnya memakai contact lens walaupun mereka duduk agak jauh. "Bagaimana awak tau" tanya Johan lagi.

Pemuda itu tidak dapat lagi menahan gelihatinya lalu ketawa besar hingga jatuh terguling-guling sambil berkata, "Dah tentu tuan tak boleh pakai cermin mata sebab tuan tak ada telinga, nak sangkut kat mana".

[Joke] Old Guys Are Helpful

I was in Tesco the other day pushing my cart around when I collided with a young guy pushing his cart.

I said to the young guy, "Sorry about that. I'm looking for my wife and I guess I wasn't paying attention to where I was going."

The young guy says, "That's OK, it’s a coincidence, I'm looking for my wife,too. I can't find her and I'm getting a little desperate."

I said, "Well, maybe we can help each other. What does your wife look like?"

The young guy says, "Well, she is 24 years old, tall, with blonde hair, big blue eyes, long legs, big boobs, and she's wearing tight white shorts, a halter top and no bra. What does your wife look like?"

I said, "Doesn't matter. Let's look for yours."

[True Story] Loving Memory of Rose

The first day of school our professor introduced himself and challenged us to get to know someone we didn't already know. I stood up to look around when a gentle hand touched my shoulder.

I turned around to find a wrinkled, little old lady beaming up at me with a smile that lit up her entire being. She said, "Hi handsome. My name is Rose. I'm eighty-seven years old. Can I give you a hug?"

I laughed and enthusiastically responded, "Of course you may!" and she gave me a giant squeeze.

"Why are you in college at such a young, innocent age?" I asked.

She jokingly replied, "I'm here to meet a rich husband, get married, and have a couple of kids..."

"No seriously," I asked. I was curious what may have motivated her to be taking on this challenge at her age.

"I always dreamed of having a college education and now I'm getting one!" she told me.

After class we walked to the student union building and shared a chocolate milkshake. We became instant friends. Every day for the next three months we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always mesmerized listening to this "time machine" as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.

Over the course of the year, Rose became a campus icon and she easily made friends wherever she went. She loved to dress up and she reveled in the attention bestowed upon her from the other students. She was living it up..

At the end of the semester we invited Rose to speak at our football banquet. I'll never forget what she taught us. She was introduced and stepped up to the podium. As she began to deliver her prepared speech, she dropped her three by five cards on the floor.

Frustrated and a little embarrassed she leaned into the microphone and simply said,

"I'm sorry I'm so jittery. I gave up beer for Lent and this whiskey is killing me! I'll never get my speech back in order so let me just tell you what I know." As we laughed she cleared her throat and began, "We do not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There are only four secrets to staying young, being happy, and achieving success.

You have to laugh and find humor every day. You've got to have a dream. When you lose your dreams, you die. We have so many people walking around who are dead and don't even know it! There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up.

If you are nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year and don't do one productive thing, you will turn twenty years old. If I am eighty -seven years old and stay in bed for a year and never do anything I will turn eighty-eight. Anybody can grow older. That doesn't take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding opportunity in change. Have no regrets. The elderly usually don't have regrets for what we did, but rather for things we did not do. The only people who fear death are those with regrets."

She concluded her speech by courageously singing "The Rose"

She challenged each of us to study the lyrics and live them out in our daily lives. At the year's end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago.

One week after graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep.

Over two thousand college students attended her funeral in tribute to the wonderful woman who taught by example that it's never too late to be all you can possibly be.
