The More People Knows, The Less They Know

I have been wanting to write about this topic for a long time now. This has been bugging me for a long time and with the increasing number of dumb people around, I think I better do something that is within my control to stop it! Well, if you are reading this, and you find that it is so true (of course it is), please ask your friends to read it too. Let's make this world a better place. :)

First of all, I must say that people nowadays are much "smarter" in the past. They are clearer about their choices in life, they are higher educated, they are knowledgeable, they know how to carry themselves properly, they are up to date with current technology. Cool ah.

(Smart readers would know that I am leading to somewhere.)

BUT WAIT! Even though they know all these, they are still doing even dumber things than people in the past?

For example, they all know about the hazards of smoking, but more and more people are smoking now. They all are better educated about legal offences, but they are still doing it, some for FUN. They all know the effects of once or twice a week binge drinking, but more and more people are doing it. They all know the possibilities of venerable diseases, but more and more people are involved in casual sex. They all know about the dangers of drugs, but more and more "hippies"/"chiongster"/"clubbers" (I call them dumb and dumber) are taking them. They all know the possibilities of credit cards and its "power", but more and more people are becoming bankrupt because of it. They all know about the important things they need to do to make a relationship work, but we see more and more heart aches and broken marriages.

Are we truly evolving or devolving (can someone help me check if there is such a word? Thanks. ;D)?

So isn't it true? The more they know, the dumber they become. (I keep using THEY, because I don't want be to associated with them. haha. :P Disclaimer.) No matter how fast our technology progresses, how good our medical sciences become, how good our financial institutions are at managing wealth, how farsighted our government is (let's face it, even if some of you don't like it, our government is good and has kept many of our singaporean idiots out of trouble), no matter how good things will, it will still be useless when handled by the stupidity shown by these people.

So please, SEE THIS AH!!! Stop all this shit. In yourself and in your friends.

(Another disclaimer : shit is not a vulgarity, it is simply a product of our digestive system. So, if you are offended, what I can suggest to you is that, stop shitting for the rest of your life. Cos if you think shit is vulgar, then you have been spouting vulgarities from your anus since you were born)

We are all sensible enough to know right from wrong. To know what is good and bad for ourselves. And to do what is required. We can do all these, as long as we remain strong and firm in our own beliefs. It is what we call, Discipline. In any case, Discipline means Doing something that you don't like, but when it is done, it brings benefits.

We can instill discipline in ourselves. Simply by believing in ourselves, and believing in doing what is right for ourselves and those whom love us. Once you have this, peer pressure lah, societal norms lah, social status lah, "fun" lah, will be a thing of the past.

The tests would come in the form of what goes on in your daily life. Whether you would be able to place your feet on firm righteous grounds. Whether you are able to reject the next stick of cigarettes. Whether you are able to know the difference between social drinking and a competition of the merlions. Whether you are able to remain unwavered under peer pressure to try out drugs for fun. Whether you are able to know your own financial limits and not overspend, knowing your needs from your wants (a mobile phone may be a need now, but chasing after the lastest model of mobile phone that functions like a swiss army knife is a want!). Whether you are able to withstand the temptations around you, and be true to your love ones.

It is all a matter of whether you are able to or not. My faith in people is that, they all can. And I know you can too. :) So, please be a positive energy to this world. It is already in a battered state, so the least we can do, is to STOP the damage we deal to it and the people on it. :) Thanks ah.

The Right One For You Is The One You Love And Loves You Back

Time to do some writing. So here goes.

Once in a while, we hear people asking happy couples, how did you know that he/she was the one for you? Though they are happily together, most of them simply dunno why too. So, I decided to make full use of my time thinking about this while driving today. And here's what I feel.

You know that someone is the ONE for you when, you love that person and that person loves you back. haha. This may sound like another nonsensical banter from dear old me again, BUT if you think about it, it is true.

In our lives, there are times, when we love someone, that person don't love us back. Or when someone loves us, but we don't love that person back. It was always like, meeting the wrong person at the wrong time. BUT, I choose to see it as, learning to know the right person from the wrong.

The right person is not the one that you fall deeply in love with. Instead, the right person is the ONE that you fall deeply in love with and deeply loves you back too. That's the ONE. But, that's also the hard part.

To be honest, even I myself find that this article is strange. The only part I found sensible was, my answer to my friend. Whether you get it or not, I still wish you all the best, in your love life.

Au Voir.

Desire Vs Love

Now, today's topic was concocted again, while I was riding. Desired Vs Loved. Hope you all enjoy it.

Alright, allow me to admit this beforehand. I have desire for people's affections, care and concern. Meaning, when people shower attention, concern on me, I feel great. I believe that everyone has this desire too. The desire to be taken care of, once in a while. But that's where the issue is, for ladies at least.

Ladies, all guys would desire you, be it physically, or in terms of companionship. During this period of time, the guys would treat you really well, and want to be really close to you. BUT, do not mistake this for love. This is just desire. There is a vast difference between the two. And many a times, girls get hurt because they get confused between the two. Why is it that, so many girls get hurt, after falling so deeply in love, and when they finally give their body and soul to the guys, the guy break their hearts by leaving? Reason is simple, the guy's desire has been satisfied.

For most guys, going after girls is like a conquest. Able to go after a girl, win the lady's heart, conquer the body, all these are like conquest to these guys. Once they are able to do it, once they have achieved their objectives, they feel bored and wants to find another peak to conquer. And that's why things change, they become cold towards you, ignore you, don't listen, and breaks your heart into a million pieces. To them, they feel nothing, to you, it feels like eternal pain. To them, you have already given what they want, you have already satisfied their desires. They didn't love you at all. They simply desire you.

But why do girls fall for such traps? Reason being, the feeling of being desired blinds them. Feeling wanted, and feeling that you belong. A lot of us have this experience. When a person keeps seeking our attention, keeps showering us attention, but we find it irritating. BUT, when that person suddenly stops, you feel weird. Haha. Well, that's why I mean by feeling desired. Cos, we love that once in a while. BUT note, that's not LOVE. You are just being desired, and most of the time, physically.

That's why, GIRLS, please open your eyes. Don't be a stupid piece of equipment which guys use. Don't be a freebie where guys can simply take advantage of. Do learn how to protect yourselves. Though, I know that guys do get hurt too, but, usually, the girls lose out more. Oh, basically, I only crapped, but didn't really give any helpful suggestions. Well, here are some of what I feel may help.

1) When a guy is in love with you, your company, your chats, your conversations are more important than getting you to do "something else".

2) The way the guy looks at you will be different. The eyes will focus on you and only on you. The eyes do not wander to others around. The eyes are a little dreamy when looking at you. Shy at times too.

3) He suddenly becomes alittle shy infront of you. Starts to be a little protective, not possessive. Worries for you over small little things too.

4) Trust your feelings. If there is something that your feel wrong, you are probably right. In this book, Blink, we all have the ability to sense things in the first 5 seconds we sees the person. Trust that sense, it works.

Alrighty then. Enough of my nonsense. Wonder what kind of complaints I may get. But do give your feedbacks.
