It leaves me to ponder.. what is right, and what is wrong? What is honor and dishonor? What is love and hate? in my total years on this planet.. i have seen, heard, experienced, and suffered and lived.. And, in any case, i just cant put a line over rite and wrong.. We live in a world that knows no justice and honor, you can call it blind, Its us, the people that define what's correct, and incorrect. If you notice on the newspaper, its always the news that someone did something wrong, that gets the headline, and seldom the good gets the headline.. And somehow, i feel.. the moral code of our society is decaying, with all the motal luxuries that blinded our eye.. that all we see is just enjoyment.. the more we have, the more we desire.. its like a neverending of lust. For centuries, men have lived and died for honor.. for what they believed.. its best defined and seen in war and battlefields.. but some can been seen in society also..
I respect the older generations for moulding Singapore of what is it now.. for what they sacriface and fought for.. but i destise and despise most youngsters now.. still a few people i have seen and earned my respect, but most i just cant bear to see.. does anyone lives by a code of honor nowadays? or everyone just wish to gain something without working for it? What do we really believe in now? Frankly speaking.. this is not the life i wish for, and will want to live in, the current trend or fashion, thats just crappy.. people living for their idols, living for what they love and hate.. its another crappy theory.. Just heard on news, our country has the highest sucidal rate.. arent that surprising? Nope.. In order to attain higher excellence in our society.. we pushed ourselves to the limit, sometimes to that it exceeds.. Just like Japan and Korea, only the fittest and strongest survived, its a fight to the last.. but, sure, we got the latest gadgets, movies, blah blah.. when all this ends.. what is left of us when we are all tired old man? i feel.. we are going to a point when we will have a breakdown.. when all will be kicked back to square 1..
"Great things are performed by perservance, not by strength.." being the strongest has no use.. everything will turn to dust one day.. government will fall, civilisation will decay and men will cease to exist..
What is left of us when all these fratal enjoyment ends?
