I have a friend that was involved with a guy from java living in bali, she left after having a month in bali with him ..i think during that stay purchased a motor bike for him also as well as paying the rent for where he lived ...i guess she felt that it was her way of helping the guy she loved ha ha ...After she returned to australia .... he had to go back to java and everything seemed to go wrong with him with the cow dying or about to die, family sick ...and then finally he became so seriously ill they thought he would die the only way to save him was send as much money as she could to his family, when my friend refused to send money well im sorry to say but apparently he died!!!!!!! My freind in such a state then sent a substansial amount of money to the indonesian account to help pay for his cremation and she was devastated...........YOUR never gonna believe what that money did though???????? IT BROUGHT HIM BACK TO LIFE!!!! its a miracle alright ........the power of the almighty dollar this is just one of my funny stories i have heard over the years from people being taken for a ride.
On the other hand my husband is balinese and is nothing like this person and i wouldnt change him for the world, and like someone else said there are good and bad in every race so we just need to take care and i think sometimes your heart and emotions lead us the wrong way and we can usually tell when something just doesnt feel right, over the years ive paid many things to only find out the money never got used for what it was supposed to but hey i gave it from the goodness of my heart and i believe in Karma ...if im good only good things will happen for me. Two wrongs dont make a right and if i feel good giving then i dont feel like im being ripped off.
