My Million Ringgit Answer
Feelings....
The first statement that my aunt A (Sam Sook's younger sister) made when she stepped into my mum's house was..."how much property did Sam Goh give to you that you have to help him so much?"...... My youngest sister was caught off guarded by my aunt's outburst and my mum was also speechless as well.... Before my mum could answer her, my aunt has jumped into another topic....
When I heard about this, I was really kind of feeling sad for my aunt....She has been living away from her brothers and sisters since she was young, she has migrated to Canada ....but lately she comes back on and off to visit her siblings and making outspoken remarks whenever she feels like it....maybe she feels she has the right to or perhaps, what she says, she never ' filter' them first...
Maybe she has been through bad experiences before, either that, or she never understand what care and love is all about, especially the bonding of a family, brothers and sisters .... One doesnt need to have motive to do a bit of kindness....
What we have done for Sam Sook is minimal compared to what he has done for us in the past....
Only my family knows how he has helped us during those days.... now it is time to return a bit of gratefulness to him, I know he has isolated himself from his siblings, so much so, his own closest brother has even refused to even take him to hospital for checkup.... Its really sad....
Mum proposed to take care of him in our own house, but after my aunt's outburst, mum is hesitating...I reassured her to take no notice of aunt, she wont be able to understand, if she asks the same question again, I hv the answer in hand...I will tell her, "Sam Sook is giving us one million RM just to take care of him.... so .... what do u say, Aunt? Are u game enough to take over?"
On the lighter side...I m waiting for an opportunity to say that......

That is the thing...some people tend to think that if you are helping another person, sure there is udang disebalik maggi mee.

Not matter what you do or how you do it they will have negative comments. Know how to talk but when ask them to do it they will hesitate
