"Psss weh weh nak dengar cerita tak?"
This and other rubbish alike sentences started it all. Just like the title represents, I want to share a bit of things that I know about a madness that has been going on since forever. I apologize though for using both Bahasa Malaysia and English, and for my bad grammar cause I'm still learning.
Alright back to our topic, the madness that I was referring to is...*drum roll*
RUMORS.
What do you expect? Everywhere you go, no matter who you are, a school cheerleader, a football player, a geek or even a loser, rumors will certainly hit you. Even if you are a nobody, people will talk shits about you. Those who hate you will start creating stories and these stories will be heard and trusted by those who are too "clever" to accept it without even asking "tuan punya badan" for the truth, and they will then probably tell that stories to some others. These false and untrue stories and statements are what we call "rumors".
"Weh nak tau tak. Ada orang cakap tau. Aku rasa kan..." |
Let's face it. Any living human being nowadays have haters. No matter how good, nice, friendly, kind, and selfless you are, if you have haters, they will talk about you. I bet you have heard some fake stories about yourself from others,right? Like you were dating a person who is actually your best friend. Or you were the reason a couple broke up. Or you were a lesbian or gay. Or you were the reason some are not friends anymore. Or that you were selfish and stubborn and arrogant and greedy. True? True.
Kata Jay Asher;
"You can hear rumors. But you can't know them."
HELLO???! You don't even know who that person is. You don't even know what they have been through throughout their lives. You don't even know their stories. You don't even know what it feels like to be in their shoes. Why do you hate? Why do you judge? Why are you wasting your time creating stories just to please yourself and to make others wondering what is right and wrong?
Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools and accepted by idiots. If you are not a fool, don't spread it. If you are not an idiot, don't accept it.
Tahu tak rumors kalau di translate dalam Bahasa Malaysia, ertinya khabar angin? Tahu tak jika khabar angin yang dituturkan itu salah, dikira dirimu telah memfitnah? Tahu tak memfitnah itu dosanya lebih besar dari membunuh seorang insan? Tahu tak Neraka Hutamah??...
Kata diriku;
"Haters gonna hate, because you can do what they can't make"
Mulut orang tidak bisa di jahit. Hanya apa yang bisa kita lakukan, adalah berdoa agar rumors itu dilenyapkan dan orang yang memulakan rumors itu memohon maaf.
Thank you for reading. Ttfn. Ta Ta For Now.
