Thoughts #45 - RIO '16

It is always pleasant to the eyes, heart-touching to see players, be it winning or loosing, showing their grattitude to their Lord.

Like how the russian judo player, Khasan, prostrating at the court winning the gold medal. And the Sundirame badminton player, Pito, doing the trinity sign on the forehead and shoulder after loosing to Lee Chong Wei.

'Kalau main tipu-tipu selamba, tu macam tak respek pemain Sundirame tu. Kalau main betul-betul, kesian pulak dia kena tibai teruk lawan dgn world champion. Kalau ummi jadi Chong Wei, ummi buat apa?'

'Main betul-betul.'

'Biar ye nangish?'

'Tak pe lah. Great experience. It's an honour what dapat main dgn world champ... age 19 some more. Buka tirai siap.'

'Betul. Ye mesti happy sebenarnya.'

You define gratefulness, you define success. How we see things define who we are.

21-2, 21-3. Tahniah Chong Wei. Emas yok!
