~~Shooting for the Moon~~
I am not a very deep thinker. In fact, I'm pretty random in my thoughts, chewing on issues as my mood sees fit. I am thinking recently, what caused me to be this way? Was it because I have been deprived of a father? With no male "focality" to mould me, I have developed into an emotional, needy freak. Right, you say, blame it on the world! But if everything is cultural, who else can we blame but the world? >.< But then again, we can rationally justify my lack of thinking ability too. I am a lazy bum, I am easily contented. See? I told u I am random.
Talking about being contentd, I have a poser for u all. How is it that some people are ambitious like hell while others are so contented with the status quo that moving them is akin to moving a mountain? Is it that bad to be e.c? Contentment breeds happiness. Hell to the $, to love, to fame! The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not WANT. Correct? Or am I confusing the two issues when I conflate them? Can one be content while being ambitious? For every bit of "stop and smell the roses", "Family will be the one with u when u die, not work" cumulating in the show "Click" by Adam Sandler, there is a counter which goes along the line "Git up u f***** bum!" and "I am breaking up with you cuz u only got a nissan while he has a lamborghini." Who can forget the most famous of them all? "Singapore is a meritocracy" and "We are a workfare society, not a welfare one". Faced with conflicting messages, how do one strike a balance? How about following that wonderful old man in JaPan? Work hard when u are young, bust ur butt for the company, and when u are old, retire and grow vegetables? To be like Gerrard or the fat gizzard Gascoigne? Hmmmmmm... >.<
