Wonder if it
is the season that leads to more surfacing of sensitive issues on the news and
through media. It is rather hilarious that some people always assume self to be
at a higher status among the society, and not remember the fact that we are all
equal and deserve the rights to be treated fairly. Perhaps it is as simple as
our nature of marking own territory in ensuring survival, that we somehow
manage to claim particular area or item as ours, though it might not belong to
anyone in the first place. Perhaps it is our inborn competitiveness that we
always want to be ahead of others and thus, trying to be on top of everyone
else by conquering more areas or even people’s hearts. Nonetheless, it is such contradicting
situation where most of us cannot get along well with each other despite the
idea of all as one which has been launched months ago. Nobody likes to live
their lives in constant arguments and disharmony, or at least not all of us do.
However, with our distinctive ideas of tolerance and bonding, it is rather
difficult to have everyone comes down as one and share the same view towards
future, as it requires mutual commitment instead of just one. Come to think of
it, do the similar frustrating and heartbreaking incidents not take place
during the usual days as well?

Concrete & Abstract
Extra knowledge gained days ago during dinner, being reminded
on how dangerous an abstraction can be. Some of us may have been thought to be
optimistic, especially when it comes to our future, that we shall never back
down from any obstacles encountered, but to carry on with what our hearts
desire most. Nevertheless, it is also important whether we have or, are willing
to put in efforts in order to make things work, as the wildest dream would
still require us to start from a single scratch. We let our imaginations run
wild, and be as creative as possible, reaching out of the box as many have
said. But frankly speaking, how often do we question the success rate behind
all dreams? How frequent do we dream while in the same time looking back into
the reality and check on the possibilities? It was definitely a valuable lesson
learned; that regardless how much we are to think abstractly, we would
nonetheless have to place the thoughts onto something concrete in order to
succeed.
