    Ibn Khaldun was a leading Tunisian Arab historiographer and historian. He is widely considered as a forerunner of the modern disciplines of historiography, sociology, economics, and demography. He is best known for his book, the Muqaddimah or Prolegomena ("Introduction").

    Taking morning train and noticing when the person next in queue couldn't fit into remaining space, someone from the back, usually a woman with a smaller stature, could disregard the queue and try to squeeze

    reminds me that 1/5 of the marriages in Singapore are interracial marriages. how does it play out in other countries? are the numbers similar?

    Pronounced like “fortune” in Chinese, the bat has been one of the most revered, popular creatures in East Asia for over 1000 years. Here, red bats surrounding a dragon on a Qing emperor’s robe, blue bats on a Korean vase of Choson dynasty, a black bat in a Japanese ukiyo-e print.

    There are those who learn without needing explanation, and there are those who don't learn anything even with all the explanation in the world.

    Seeking more discipline has helped me in some ways, but for truly personal and agonising choices... meh I'm stuck in an impasse.

    If you ever struggle with “problem behaviors” like losing your temper, feeling like you have to be perfect, procrastinating, people-pleasing, or hating yourself, I highly recommend the book Complex PTSD: From Surviving to Thriving.

    I have greater inner consensus when it comes to helping other people as compared to myself. I can't break a promise, I can't let them down. However, I can let myself down as many times as I want! That's why I never tell myself what I need to know!

    Many a times the hard part is gathering enough inner consensus to make a decision. However, the problem is most people are not *that* held together. Unless within you lies an emperor who has already conquered all warring factions in which case this thread is not for you.

    My views on self-development have evolved from setting up systems and following a way of life to appreciating the true nature of difficult choices. They are like waves that ebb and flow. When you make some progress, it gets wiped away.

    Part I Before that, I met some Penang friends whom I got to know from learning Malay. They're siblings btw. They were surprised I was fluent in Chinese because they thought Singaporean Chinese can't speak their mother tongue... (there's some truth in it)

    Walking around without a protective face mask? Well, you can't avoid these sharp-tongued drones! Many village and cities in China are using drones equipped with speakers to patrol during the outbreak.

    These kind of people would still behave like that even if they don't do you a favour. Rather the favour may be a way to legitimise abuse lol. If you don't know yourself well, you may be sucked into it while thinking it's your fault and you deserve it.

    Lol he ended up taking my suggestion and reserved another place because the place he had in mind was full this week and next. This kind of person will only learn things the hard way. They will only learn through pain. Life is finite, but suffering can be infinite.

    Bro was making reservations for Chinese New Year reunion dinner. Him to mum: The place is fully booked now. I told you about it before CNY, why didn't you schedule a day early on?! Me: If it's full, why don't we eat someplace else? Him: Are you treating, or am I treating?

    just as there are gaps in my knowledge, there are gaps in my self-awareness too. I reflexively avoid showing people a side of me perhaps because I'm afraid they'll criticise it.
