Firecrackers are bursting up in the air, Indian songs blaring from the speakers, sarees and all other Indian suits are being immaculately exhibited. All these are the effects of deepavali celebration the Indians are celebrating today. Our Malaysian Indians, they organized a big open house to celebrate deepavali where they cooked a lot, by a lot I mean, seriously-too-many-kilos-of-chickens-and-too-many-pots-of-vegetables to be served to us last night. Phew, they must had burnt few kilos, I reckon.
Me myself, I have no plan to go anywhere during this holiday. OK. That wasn't the whole story. I actually planned to go shopping-WINDOW shopping due to my limited paycheck and my urge to save a little bit for the future since I am always the one who promptly turn into a vegetarian for my bankruptcy issue at the end of the three months- at Bangalore. But it didn't turn out the way I pwanted to because my friend, whose name is ZAHIRAH (of course, I have to mention your name. What's good in not mentioning? Hehe), turned her back on me and refused to come to my place this holiday. Obviously, I sulked, I gloomed, I pouted, but hey, you have your good reasons, hence you're excused. But I miss you though. So what I did to occupy myself and to satisfy the necessity of me to improving my cooking, I cooked different menus at different timings, and as for now, I guess I have filled it all, breakfast, brunch, lunch, tea time, dinner, and supper. It was hectic and tiring, but hey, I'm not complaining. I love it somehow.
Anyhow, Facebook is now rife with so many issues,which partly is considerably within the range of soundness of mine, partly completely beyond the reach of soundness of mind, like, the one small kid who wore a bikini and vlogged with one string of the bikini hung on the shoulder, of which perhaps to seduce or attract people to look at her vlogging, or maybe her mum coaxed her to do it, either way, it sounded wrong and very sightly wrong. Other example is, this one OK-she's-kinda-cute-if-she-didn't-try-so-hard-to-be-one post on YouTube, where she repeatedly mentioned that her eyes are beautiful and somewhat cute. Oh honey, just engulf the fact that your irises have their own beautiful colour and deal with them! Oh, let me speak to you about this one status on Facebook, my friend posted, on the cruelty of being a non vegetarian and the honorable and holiness of being a vegetarian, because you escaped from being a murderer by murdering animals like chicken, or cows. She said in her post, that you, non-vegetarian (and that applies to me as well), should take one living animal and put it on your chopping board, then take your knife and cut the live animal, and see the animal gasping for air, yelping for help to survive and run away. Not exactly-xeroxly like that, but that delivers her message. So what she meant to say was that us non-vegetarian are killers who don't have hearts? Hm. That made me wonder, do vegetarians consider the fact that they compete with the animals for food because they obviously eat vegetables? Second, where do you guys get enough of nutrition, proteins, and all the others essential vitamins from eating vegetables and only vegetables? Third, why don't you turn yourself into a vegan because isn't eggs and cows' milk are from animals? Logical thinking aside, you should know that Allah has pointed us to eat what is halal and to stay away from those which are shubhah and haram. The animals are slaughtered for some reasons, take an example like during eid adha, which is to remind us of the sacrifices made by our Nabi Ibrahim and his son. Also, the animals don't simply died. The animals redha with their deaths that they want to provide good food for the humans to do amar maa'ruf and nahi munkar, just like how leaf accepts the fact that bug wants to eat him, and the bug accepts the fact that frog has hunger for him, and the frog understand that he is going to be eaten by an eagle. That's the way it works, that's the food chain stuck inside our head and that's the practical process occurring in this world. Sorry, don't get me wrong. I don't have rage inside of me and I am not here to debate and argue with anyone till we fight each other and bleed each other to death. I am just stating my opinions out and I am giving out my words softly and humbly to not hurt anyone. But lets be honest, I don't think it's appropriate to declair someone's cruel and ruthless murderer just because he eats animal. You can't just angel-ly (if that word even exist) say that your kind and your act is very true just because you don't eat animals. What if you accidentally eat vege-worm or ants or small bugs when you eat the vegetables contaminated by those animals or when you scoop out one spoonful of sugar and you don't realize there's one tiny little ant inside? Does that make you a murderer too? Does that give you reason to also commit in the alleged crime? OK, that's not the point. The point is, I humbly disagree with your words and you should just state that you're a vegetarian and you don't want to eat animal because you don't like the shear taste of it or something like that. Trust me, I sometimes declair myself a vegetarian (or pseudo vegetarian, I-matter of fact- can't stand not eating other than vegetables for more than two days) and I have few friends of my own happened to be vegetarians too. And I don't mind, at all. That doesn't stop me to love them or to mingle with them. We could eat together at the same time, the same place, the same table just fine. They can eat vegetables only, and I can eat animals only, and it doesn't matter. It doesn't signify them as the honorable piece and I as dishonorable figure. No, it absolutely doesn't. It just proves that we are humans, that we have our own perspectives and obvious rights to it and that we were born to have issues and disagreements and variety of ways of living but we don't simply judge people claiming that they are bad. With that, I thank you for having your time spend reading this longggggg post of mine. Before I actually end my post, again I would like to stress upon that my words aren't meant to be harsh and I am not trying to be all good and hurt somebody.i am just stating out my opinions and yes,you can have your own too. Thank you.
