Nowadays we should never take anything for granted, anything! And that includes safety most of all. I'm talking about women, handbags and those low-life known as snatch thieves. My mom was a victim last year when a lone motorist snatched her bag after dinner in front of a very well lit restaurant. I was a victim a few years ago when I was alighting from a metro bus right in front of starhill and he just snatched from behind, I gave chase but to no avail. In retrospect, I think I was quite lucky coz he got away with just my handbag, but I didn't suffer any physical injuries except perhaps my pride was abit bruised.
And then yesterday, Ruby and Jasmine from downstairs alerted me on some shady characters that approached and tried to get into their office during lunch hour, the two males were dressed in some religious garbs and held in their hands a tray with a statuette and burning incense, sensing danger Ruby shooed them away and refused them entry of course, which made them became more agressive. And so today I called everyone together and warned them about possible danger even in the confines of the office, because the burning incense may be some kind of a hallucinogen, we don't know, but I rather be sceptical than rendered unconscious!
A few days back when I was in the salon, Ruby the owner told me that a friend of hers whom was dining alfresco at a BKT shop got her purse snatched in broad day light during lunch hour, they really have some nerve don't they? And so I'll like to highlight some of the stuffs that I do to keep danger at bay;
1) when I get into the car the first thing I do is lock the doors
2) i place my handbag at the back seat floor rather than beside me at the passenger seat
3) if i feel that I'm being followed, I'll walk into a crowd of people rather than to the car
4) and always, always be vigilant!
5) and you can never ever be too careful
6) don't trust anyone, even if they're dressed in an Armani suit!
