Making impossible, possible!

My Bahasa Malaysia teacher had often motivated the girls in my class with this statement “” Tak Boleh Pun Di Bolehkan””. It means exactly “making the impossible, possible””. In Malay language, there is no such word as “”di bolehkan”” but because it sounded so good rhthym and everytime the teacher asked if we can (ie boleh?) we answered “”no we can’t”” ie “”tak boleh””. So the teacher coined this phrase to cheer us on, knowing every well is the wrong vacabulary in Malay. So the words have stuck very hard in me, to the point that I travelled my road full of positive possibilities, to this day still amazed with the life I am living, only last Thurs and Friday there are still people asking me how did I ended up here, after 16 long years. Almost everytime I meet a new friend I get asked this question. Yes Nance has highlighted such a remarkable Schooling Olympic story which also made my Singapore family rather proud, and we all already knew rather well our Dear PSH is in the same league of those who sees nothing is impossible. “”Tak Boleh?”” “”Di Bolehkan!!”” If there are readers here who understand the Malay language.

“Ordinary people believe only in the possible.. Extraordinary people visualize what is possible or probable , but rather impossible. And visualizing the impossible, they begin to see it possible.”[Cherie Carter-Scott] . Park Shi Hoo is the best example of an extraordinary man, whose mind, body and spirit working together, believed that anything is possible. As a young man his imagination was vibrant and his heart open. Everything amazed him and he tought that to become an actor was possible. His optimism underestimated how difficult it was to achieve his goal, believing that everything was possible. But coming from a very loving, stable background, his family, he was persuaded to just be himself and try to do the impossible, to make his dreams come true. And for almost 10 years he was on the right track, working very hard to turn impossible into possible. Finally to become the famous K actor, he is today! He is now one of the biggest K. superstars. Being a struggling actor , in every definition, he has the potential to be an important personality , to do something exceptional, to live his dreams, to change his life, to fulfill his happiness. And everything was finally due to the motivation and belief in himself. Even in the toughest of times, he believed deep down that everything would turn out for the good. And he understood that keeping his head up , he could get through anything. Could turn the impossible into possible.! Due to his hard-working , he was always on the winning side of life. “The word “impossible” is not in my dictionary.”[Napoleon Bonaparte] . This word is not in PSH’s dictionary too!

Perseverance, courage, self-abnegation will definitely make the impossible possible. But our beloved PSH, the impossible was made possible by his work so far, but the distressing fact that we now no longer appears in a new project. That depends not only on him if he would be offered a quality project, incitantt, creative would be accepted. I think the PSH everything becomes possible and even impossible for it has our full support. Nance I’d be curious how would follow a meeting of yours beloved PSH because you do so much to him, I think has a “servant” so devoted.

I wanted to say this before I forget on this topic of Making Impossible, Possible. Just the mere fact that PSH himself is a shy introvert person yet he stuck his guts out to fulfil his passion of acting, just this very fact alone says all about Making Impossible, Possible. Like what he said at an interview at his very 1st fan meet back in 2007 (I might be wrong about the timing) he revealed that he is the type who would take backstage, not attracting attention in the centre of the group, and quiet type of person, his friends also exclaimed “” You? On TV? “”. eally an ridiculous notion.His early works that could give him a living was underware model, as he said he thought 4 or so appearances/works in one year, and for reasonably good money so he signed the contract, but he was called up many times a month and had to put on thousands of underware, and even til the day he was famous, those underware ads still flashing around apparently because the contract said they had the right to do so as long as the product is still in proudction, until they sell out or product discontinued. Worst of all, as PSH revealed, those underwares got to be skin tight, so there was a safety pin at the back …….just these details alone as he revealed in Healing Camp, imagine even an extrovert person like me won’t be able to subject myself to that level of intimidation, yet our PSH DID THEM ALL……and he did them with such class acts.
