Some Malaysians have internalized the idea that being articulate and charismatic is a sign of intelligence and thus are easily impressed by those who are.
And as a result, we fail to see or we ignore how class and privileges shape someone's level of eloquence and fluency.
Do you know that the average single man can go months or even years without non-sexual physical touch. No hugs. No hand-holding. No comforting pat on the back?
The only time many men experience gentle touch is from a barber or a paid sex worker.
This condition is called 'Skin Hunger,' and it leads to severe depression and anxiety. Society has labeled male touch as 'predatory' or 'creepy,' so men have learned to starve themselves of human contact just to make women feel comfortable. They are dying of loneliness in a crowded room.
Pelan-pelan bangun semula, okay. Jangan putus asa dari rahmat Allah, dan jangan bandingkan nasib sendiri dengan orang lain.
Berdamailah dengan takdir, berusahalah sebaik mungkin melalui jalan yang Dia redha. Selebihnya, serahkan kepada-Nya. Allah kan ada.

Boy: Okay... and what about 18324×0?
Girl: Still zero.
Boy: That's the thing...
Girl: What?
Boy:
No matter how big the effort on one side, if the other side stays at zero...the result will always be nothing..
