Wake up

We saw things that were clearly wrong, in front of our eyes, could not speak because we didn't want to hurt. We saw something wrong, but when we chose to speak out, others shun us, saying we could not think right. Others got emotional and lashed out at us based on emotions instead of facts. Sometimes, what has been taught to us since young, is wrong, but we were dumb children, who only accepted the experience of others. But the more things we saw in life, sometimes we realize, what has been taught to us, is pretty much wrong.

We live through our own experiences, not the experiences of others. So we go far away. Solitary. Living in it for a long time makes us think. Makes us regret, makes us grow and makes us a man. No longer a pawn or a decoration for others to use to feel good about themselves. An independent man, a free man, who could think clearly, and move the world with his own two hands, to the path of what he sees as right.

Time changes, people change, the society changes. And yet there exists groups of people stubbornly rejecting change and wanting to ridiculously stand their ground. For me, they are inflexible, like a thin piece of wood, when we bend them, they break. An effective person, is like rubber, they could bend, stretch, and bind. They cannot break eventhough you throw him on the ground with a lot of force. But nothing is perfect. Rubbers are soft. But if this softness is used properly, it could create a world where people don't have to have guns, where people will lay aside their differences for the greater good. A world where people will live side by side as a happy family.

I write here in my blog today, as an advice to my generation and the generation after me, and the genaration after them. Every human, be it high or low, small or big, weak or strong, rich or poor has their own strengths, weaknesses and uniqueness. Until the time we see each other as equals, peace will not exist, wars will always rage, innocent people will always suffer and opression will always occur. Dissatisfaction will always leave a bad taste in our mouths. Not only wars in battlefields but also conflicts in the household, conflicts at work, and personal conflicts. It is the time for us as humans to evolve our way of thought and not limit it to sentiments of the past.

With that, I end my post..
