Ungraciousness a sign of weakness
January 10, 2009 Saturday, 05:41 AM

IF ABLE-BODIED people could better understand and openly accept others in their true state of 'weakness', they would be more inclined to give way to them.

Can you yourself understand what you have blabbered?

I would like to add additional points to my original article.

Although the stronger-abled do give way to ungracious people, the Ungracious should also be helped in the correction of their behaviour so that it would not be repeated.

Helping the Ungracious is not by fighting with them that can bring out more ungraciousness, but by helping them to understand the restrictive nature of their own ungracious behaviour and how seriously it affects or injures others. They should also be helped to understand that their ungracious and restrictive behaviour does not really help in them gaining personal freedom, but only leads them further away from such.

Helping the Ungracious to find their sources for personal freedom would help them to feel more adequate. Then when faced with a situation that poses restrictions on freedom, they would feel less threatened in their freedom when dealing with the situation, rather than feeling inadequate and desperate to gain personal freedom by trying to snatch it away from others.

The inadequate ungracious people should follow what the adequate and gracious people do in seeking personal freedom. Exercising and standing up for your own beliefs and rights in society and gaining back your power/control from others would help in gaining and creating personal freedom. Then there would be no more reason to gain personal freedom by committing desperate and simplistic acts by restricting others in actions or in speech.

Being gracious to others requires exercising personal power that comes from the qualities of courage, confidence, and strong reasoning.

gwaha 11:09 ~ That you HAVE TO STRUGGLE with - what to many (some?) is clear and articulate - 'blabber' means you're not there yet in reading/comprehension skills re abstract/psychological explanations? Why smugly mispresume all readers MUST BE at your level of inability - or remain so?

Fake?

What I can perceive to be fake here is 'Singlish' that is written like French and 'teaching skills' that 'sent' one halfway across the world to get employed, while trying to correct the 'injustice' one 'suffered' by trying to gain as much 'attention' in this forum by being negative, which sadly, only puts others away from listening. I'm sure many people would have though poor upbringing as a main factor in ungracious and pitiful behaviour.

Ungracious people are not powerful, only pitiful. The more they demonstrate their ungracious behaviour, the more others can pity them. angwahang, this goes out to you too, in case you thought I have ignored you.

(I am not fighting, just validating my article by demonstrating how ungracious people and their weaknesses should be well-perceived, so that there can be the 'heart' to give way to them)

Quoted from my article, "Such open-hearted acceptance of others' true weaknesses is the key to creating a gracious, understanding and loving society."

I said further, "Although the stronger-abled do give way to ungracious people, the Ungracious should also be helped in the correction of their behaviour so that it would not be repeated".

Timo ~ Keep it up! Cynicism is like insanity - its sufferers won't EVER admit they have it despite its being obvious to the uncynical. That's when you know it's pathological.

Eagle wannabe ~ You meant to say : 'I rest my case', or 'I raise my case' - whatever that means?

Oh! Gracious me!!

I've very very seldom read a more condescending letter/post/comment from a more anally-retentive writer/poster than this piece of crap, "Ungraciousness a sign of weakness" from one Timothy Tang.

2 Goldeny-brown samples of nuggety crap :~~

(i) "We, as adequate ones, should have no reason to feel frustrated in giving way to such 'weaker ones'."
Tomothy Tang

and

(ii) "We, as stronger, more adequate and gracious adults, should give way to the disabled as well as inadequate people who seem ungracious."

I really wuld like 2 ask U, Sir.... Who gave U e idea/notion/belief that U'r an "adequate one" or "stronger" or even "gracious" huh?
You yourself??

In ur reply to unewolke (and angwahang), U said ~~
"What I can perceive to be fake here is 'Singlish' that is written like French and 'teaching skills' that 'sent' one halfway across the world to get employed.... yadda yadda yadda.... ad hominems....blah blah blah....non sequiturs.
.....yadda yadda yadda..... fallacies.....so that there can be the 'heart' to give way to them)"

Oh puh leezz , Ti Tang.... READ UR OWN POSTS!!!

NOWHERE in ur above reply did i see, nor perceive, any..... "open-hearted acceptance" that U were espousing.
Or isit, perhaps, when U wrote "reveals personal inadequacy and closed-mindedness" its jus ur cry for help?

But, worrie not... "being gracious, i shall exercise my personal power that comes from the qualities of courage, confidence, and strong reasoning to help you." (with edits)

I jus hope that, after helping you, you "the Ungracious should correct ur behaviour so that it would not be repeated".
(with edits)

Thank you very much
