just had supper at bedok south with kathi and mez. the official score now is like bedok south 1, bendemeer 3 and moet chandon lounge 39.5.

anyway mez gave a little feedback that i've been blogging to much about brother
Japanese which i than told him that it's not that i'm advertising brother J's incapabilities, it's just that he is a great example of bad leadership. so after i said that i started thinking. why this obsession with the bad and the good of leadership?

than i started to get piss. that's the think about me, when i go deep in thought, i'll automatically start rationalizing, contemplating, pondering and repeating the cycles with pictures painted in still like motion. it than starts to get real than in a few seconds from words that passes through my ears which is than filter through my mind it suddenly becomes a movie in my head.

so instead of telling what i'm thinking about, i'm actually telling what i'm seeing.

now leadership to me is a very sacred thing. if you call yourself a leader you better be a leader. what got me piss is that at this era, or in my world to say the least, there's so many lacks in the quality of leadership that i see. i dare say that i'm not an expert on what makes a good leader but c'mon, responsibility, ownership, sincerity and love is what gets the people's vote.

why i need to raise the importance of good leadership is simple really. if you are a leader of man and you don't have the right qualities and still wanting to be in the position of power than may i, as the voice of the people, label you a murderer of mind?
have you have no idea that you are making us suffer without knowing it?
now the sentence; "without knowing it", is just fucking irresponsible and down-right stupid.

to those who are in the position of power, it is easy to scream at your people thinking it's discipline but you end up hurting them so badly that they create labels for themselves thinking that they are useless or otherwise. just because you had a bad day doesn't mean everyone else have to get it as well.

i'm saying all this not only in my line of work but also in parenting as well. i guess the real reason why i pay such paticular attention to leadership may be cause by the way i was brought up by my mom and dad. i saw the worse and the best in parenting from the both of them and if the balance was off just by a millimetre i might end up either in jail for killing someone or end up being a village idiot.

at the end i turn up to be a person who is capable of killing anyone who gives up on village idiots for the wrong reasons. don't give up on them. nurture them, love them but if they betray you or worse when they betray themself. than only will i one day allow myself to destroy them. not even an inch will i leave for the vultures of death.

if you were to read the last sentence over and over again like a mantra you might think that i'm no different than a bad leader. for who am i to make right on something as subjective as judgement? but i didn't say i was a leader, i was merely making my opinion in written words and to those who knows me in spoken words. cause i'm not a leader. i'm the people's bartender a bi-product of a hopeful revolution.
