elims em ekam
The rainy afternoon melted every muscle in my body and the achiness of laziness is calling out for a treatment.
The bed, soft fluffy white comforter...the slow whizzing sounds of the air conditioner nudges me back to the world of slumber.
the pitter-patter on my windowpanes like a lullaby urging me to stay away from the hustle and business of the outside world.
hmmm.
Despite all of that.
I am now in starbucks Liat towers.
heh.
Recently, many meetings and outings have made me realised how small Singapore is.
Everybody knows everybody who knows god-damn everybody,
Everyone is interlinked, intertwined intersected into each other's life.
Well Mr S, I found your neighbour... heh.
Lovable character really.
I understand now.
Another insight that I have gained from the past week of meetings and dates and outings
is that the main problem to every social gathering are cliques.
It is funny that how within a clique there is yet another clique.
These creates problems.
creates misunderstanding
creates judgements.
In short it creates problems.
However, what is sow rong with cliques.
There is a reason behind every clique isnt there?
Sometimes it is about similar backgrounds.
Similar interests.
similar social circle.
similar perception.
Cliques derive from everything similar.
Why is that so bad anyway?
The problem arises when there are those who felt side-lined
who felt less important
who felt alienated
who felt they are not acknowledged
This is a commin trait in every social circle and will never cease.
Wy?
It is human nature to gel with those they deem as themselves.
Its comfort
Its familiarity
Its safety in numbers.
So what is the problem again?
I have come to the conclusion that we should not bother por try too much.
The more we try the more we push the more we give a damn
things will disentegrate.
So why bother?
I ave lived half of my life with that motto.
I am going to hold strong to it.
Why bother?
we cant please everybody
life is god-damn short
to bother.
Why bother.
Aside from that, I have been living a very calm life.
My hair's longer,
My collection of apparels getting larger
My unhappiness dissipating.
Like I said why bother?
Don't bother.
