 Today I headed to the food centre opposite my workplace for dinner, decided to try the Lor Mee which my colleagues claim is super good. An old man with tattoos all over his body was manning the stall. He looked really old, wearing a cap and his hand is constantly shaking. I'm by shaking I don't mean like just shaking, it's vigorously shaking like my bowl of Lor Mee looks like it's gonna spill over kind. Suddenly, I just felt a pang of sadness. I've always had a soft spot for the elderly, it really made me sad, it make me even sadder when he thanked me profusely for just buying a bowl of noodles which I paid for. I just felt really sad to see his hands shaking and shaking while cooking my bowl of noodles. Somemore it was comforting to know that at least he is making an honest living, cause my the looks for his tattoo covered body, he may used to be part of a gang or something, it literally covered his body btw. I hope a lot of people visit his noodle stall, haha! The Lor Mee was damn good btw, I'm not kidding! It's the coffeeshop opposite Chai Chee Technopark!

I always wished we lived in a perfect world where there is no pain, no sadness, no sickness, no death. People don't suffer, they don't know tears, only joy and laughter. Animals don't get put down, there are no strays. People don't murder each other etc. I know it's no possible. Just saying some of my daydreams.
