The World we see

Before i start yapping today, i should thank one of my readers "Strawberry Egg" who ever that maybe for writing in reply to my blog.... a very insightful excerpt though i dun really quite understand.... i will try to reply with sometin in the same line of thought....

A lot of times, we forget our place on this so called Earth.... we are but part of a bigger picture.... and we ought to know our place. but apart from that, what i am trying to say here is we have become so accustomed to the fact that we are but a mini-gear in this whole clockwork of things and that when we are not part of it, we are branded the MISFITS.... why??? I cannot understand.... mabe people take comfort in numbers... thats why.... but i feel differently, as i was walking back to office from a meeting last week, i spot a young man from afar who seems to have some problem with his leg... cos he was limping... he looked not more than 20 years old... but i can see he has very low self esteem as he kpet looking down at the ground.... only to peep up when crossing the road.... some call this feeling sympathy... to me I would have gone up to slap him in the face and wake him up if I had the guts....

Why wud i do tat? well, alot of times, people live for the world to see... but wat has this world gotta do with us??? will ou mourn for someone who died in Africa? I dun tink so.... you see, even if your neighbor died, most of us wouldnt attend the funeral or even walk by to say some words of comfort.... why??? Cos it dun matter right??? we feel sad for a moment but after like 5 minutes... its so what's on TV???

The World i believe is a world we create for our own.... around ourselves, something closer to heart and not so distant... something we can nuture, protect and keep building, something we are proud of and never ashamed to be in it.... I say all of us should have a World of our own..... i suppose that's why fantasy novels and virtual gaming and even movies have such an effect on us.... they take us to a world we long to have and something that is so personal yet can still bind people together... unlike the real world.

I am not saying we should dwell in such make-up worlds but as a comparison, we should create this World in our physical everyday lives.... something tangible...

Maybe my world starts from a small number of 5... the core being my family.... then starts to grow as i start adding nutrients to it like care and love and values.... then i can mould the growth in whichever i want...whenever i want but never forgetting the core..... I can choose to have lets say 3 closer buds...then from there i can either stop or have more flowering.... never would i have to answer to anyone.... never would i have to be measured by others.... only i am in control.... sounds virtual ??? i tink not.... most of us are doing it sub-consciously.... but it is just that no one actually stops to think about it.... most of the time we think of what others would think....

"if i dun go will they think that i m arrogant???.......what happens if i say this??? can i not say this????...... mabe i should just follow everyone's decision and be the goodie two shoes....why cant they listen to my opinions???"

Familiar lines of thought that sped through your head when you are out in this World??? Having the ability to choose and make decisions differentiate us from the lower beings like animals and plants.... but never were we able to exercise this power and gift wisely..... maybe we never did know how to utilise it... maybe we were never meant to use it....questions that can never be answered....

What we can do in this total mess is to create our own haven, our own little sanctuary..... never to be looked upon by other people's criticisms and at the same time never to criticise people ever again as we dun really care about that anymore do we ??? when we have our own little World to manage.... so it really boils down to the problem of realisation of our Inner World... do we have the guts to face it and to bring it out? Well we can only try ... and when we try, we give ourselves the chance ... at least there is hope for a new world order ... hahahahaha....

oh oh said too much liao..... save some for tomorrow... oh yeah.... this is also a World we build for a getaway.... why are we able to write so freely on the net??? why do we enjoy reading other people's blog??? have you thought about it??? I have... but I never did come close to the answer....

CIAO bloggers..... another day another time another BLOG....
