Don't Be Snob!

Author: Flyming Lika

Living in big cities not safe from time to time. Robbery, pickpockets happen every day and it's out of other attention. People to be dumb.

As individual, we must prepare ourselves. Society becomes more complex. A lot of consideration that makes this case happens.

No need to talk about other, we are the primary subjects.

Started from human life in a group, then a lot of thing happened, a conclusion, someone see, someone heard, someone jealous, someone feel unlucky, etc.

That's the beginning of human being now. If we can understand what the situation that make this condition happens from our heart, then we can make aside that trouble.

Examples:

Snatch cases: Avoid uses valuable items in public.
Threatening cases: Avoid dangerous area.

"Don't be snob, showing off, being a hero and other heroic stuffs"

In another side, we also must prepare ourselves if we were being trapped in trouble.

Lately there is some case that passengers being robbed by their own driver.

Preparation must be taken, such as:

If you want to use Taxi, better use from reputable companies.
Watch driver's ID, and photo. Is it matched? If necessary, take a note about name and police number.
For lady, avoid taking a Taxi alone.
If you flag down Taxi, better choose reputable one. In short condition that you must take Taxi in hazard, check doors lock, must be in a good condition, and can be open from inside. Lock all doors from inside and also driver door. Watch the route; don't let the driver bully you.
Avoid walk around in night.

Another Tips:

In Middle East countries, if we want to take a Taxi, gentleman first then lady. If we depart, lady first then gent.

Smell weird?

That's is safety is the most.

Some people said that this isn't polite.

Frankly, "Want safety or be polite?"

In most case, when lady come abroad, Taxi run away. Then days after, the Lady already .... (think it by yourself).

Prepare for the worst!

Back to "cautious".

If we drive ourselves, avoid dangerous area. Sometime bad things happen in cross light, especially at night. Because of that, from correct distance, if you see red light is on, slow down your vehicle to avoid that you must stop when red light still on, wait until green light on. Look around and lock all doors.

When someone is trying to rob you, push the horn, switch on your hazard light, and other action to make you as a attention to public so they known that you are in trouble and need some help.

If someone accuse you that you hit other by your vehicle or someone suspect you use stolen car, or other strange accusation, and ask you to stop by.

"Don't do it". Drive to nearest police station and ask for help.

If you need, in short position, to open your window, open as little as possible as long they can hear your voice and you can hear them also. Don't open window that make hand can slide over.

That's the only small accident that I can write in here.

At the end.

The main is "Wu". As known as understanding and knowing in high level.

Prepare everything for your safety.

Don't panic, know where you must go when some bad things happen or know what to do.

Prepare for the worst when jungle laws in the rule.

Hope Taoist get more "Wu" and "cautious" in daily life.

Don't forget to pray and make good things so our beloved Tai Shang Lao Jun (

) will protect us.
