I went to the market with my mum today to Boon Keng...Guess what I saw?A whole bunch of working adults going to work from punggol...How nice..However,what shocked me is not the rush hour,it's the face of all the people who are going to work.Their face are so glum,so gloomy,that it makes me shudder at the thought of the people whom I saw.It's not that I'm being sarcastic or whatever,it's just the thought of me stepping into the same path as those people that make me feel that it's really a waste to let the happiness and sheer joy of the past go down the drain.Imagine that a person,who is still young,to love going to school,whether to meet friends or to study,to the extent of everybody looking so glum and gloomy when they are going to work.Ain't they the same thing?Alright,maybe they are not the same.What's the difference?A school children spends money to go to a school,while a working adult go to work to earn money.Since we are now in a society who need money to work,won't the people who are earning money be much happier than those who are not earning money?Isn't it strange that the opposite is always true?It's really ironic in this sense that those who are bringing the bread home are those who are always the un-happiest while those who are depending on the bread to be so happy and carefree day after day,not caring about what happens in the future.
After the long strings of words,wouldn't you find it strange that life is always going the wrong way from what we all have in our 'ideal' mind?When we all started,our lives are so filled with all kinds of wondrous imaginations and thoughts which are all very real,yet when we grow older these thoughts are heaped with so much other factors and problems that we have to source for alternatives?Usually these alternatives are those which we really don't like,but forced to do it because it's the only thing that is bringing in the most bread.Wouldn't you find it strange that all these factors should have been gone if anyone persevered in the direction of their childhood dreams?Plus,those dreams that we had are labeled with so much hardships and problems that we tend to not even try even before we started out in whichever area that we had wanted.Seriously,what is it in our dreams and desires that is truly blocking us from what we really wish to have?Sometimes I find that it's the government,who keep us on a dead path towards the mainstream.Sometimes I find that it's the world we are in that is truly making us what we are today.However,after some thinking through towards the impossible area,I found out that it's actually US who made the possible impossible!Why is that so?Many would be scolding me for saying this out.However,isn't it ourselves that made the thinking of our dreams and goals come to naught?Isn't it us that gave ourselves more problems to handle rather than going towards the dream that we truly wanted wholeheartedly?Sometimes the simplest thing is the hardest thing for everyone to even wish for anything to happen.Somehow I start to fear,what is the world going to be like in the future,when i step out truly into the working world.When the world is really at it's wits end into being new and creative.What are we trying to do with our lives man?I really wish to find out...Can somebody give me an answer?Sigh~!
