Reflections of An MWIS

Born and bred in the beautiful island state of Pulau Pinang, Joshua had one day decided that there is a larger world beyond the Penang Bridge. And so in 2002, he went onboard the Star Cruise to work and embarked to discover his calling. (Of all places!). After floating about the North China Sea for a year plus, he decided that he had enough of stormy waters and wanted to land. Being an islander, a beach boy at heart, the next best thing than to go back to Pulau Pinang was to settle in Singapore. Therefore, currently he joins thousands of others as a Malaysian Working in Singapore (MWIS).

With whatever free time he has and when the boss is not looking, Joshua writes for this column. The articles are mostly a reflection of his personal search for truth. They were written to answer his own critical questions regarding Christianity and life generally.  Being a pursuer of the Truth, he welcomes fellow seekers to interact with him through emails and other means.   Drop him a mail at joshuawoo@gmail.com.

Family Affair
 
Eve : Men are weak
 
Adam : You are weaker than I am because you 
are made out of my bone.
 
Eve : Yes, I was made out of your bone. Thanks 
to your lousy bone that now I can anticipate
osteoporosis.
 
Adam : That shows that you are weak. I am
stronger than you. I am to rule over you.
 
Eve : Oh, you can’t rule over me! You are
weaker, that’s why you need me to help 
you. Without me, you are not complete (or 
rather “not 
competent” – Eve thought secretly)
 
Adam : Peace, peace. Be submissive, 
don’t argue.
 
Eve : I hate it when you use that! Urrggghh…

The Empty Thoughts That Queue
November 12, 2004 [02:10 am]
 
I am confused
as much as my age that I’d abused
it is still
nothing can be amused
 
none can it produce
I can't, I can't use
emptiness is what it adduced
it has been sealed!
it has been sealed!
