"When I was young I set out to change the world.
When I grew older I perceived that this was too ambitious,
so I set out to change my state.
This too, I realized as I grew older, was too ambitious,
so I set out to change my town.
When I realized that I could not do even this, I tried to change my family.
Now, as an old man I know that I should have started by changing myself.
If I had started with myself, maybe then I would have succeeded
in changing my family, the town, or even the state-
and who knows, maybe the world."

Birthday wish/gift lost, ..was one Olympic Gold medal!

Remember the day when Malaysia ‘last man standing’ in Beijing 2008.. the world No.2 player (Malaysia) against world No.1 player (China).. the Final ‘battle’ for historical 1st gold medal hope of nation! Supporters and fans of badminton (or none) were looking forward, last minute Man-Single BADMINTON final match, one step to gold medal and I did wish that potential happening as my birthday present on same day.. HOWEVER, it went unexpected.. unexpectable.. maybe better not to expect, ha.. Our nation seems always go unpredictedly in last step.. Though the No.2 is good, but the world No.1 is more powerful and performed unbeatable in the final!

Good job! Because at least a medal, 1st medal after Olympic in Athens 1996, but we will be more than satisfied if it was gold medal. Anyway, let this serves as the start for more medals, can we? After prolonged, lengthy, not stopping stories of politics and tons of problem and 'still peaceful' arguments we can listen, the medal is good news and break for the coming Malaysia 51st Independence day!
