suddenly dawned on me that today's the end of January.quite fast, huh. note to self: buy concession tomorrow. -- how to say... hm. had a sudden thought the other day, that every comparison made is subjective. strong vs. weak. rich vs. poor. tall vs. short. fat vs. thin. . . . what makes up strong? weak? the rich, the poor, the tall, the short, the fat & the thin? they're all subjected to our views & opinions. say you have a hundred dollars. you think it's very little. to someone who needs money, one hundred is a lot. so different people have different expectations, which leads to comparisons, & when things are compared, they can either lose their own value, or gain more in return. it's very easy to compare, but not easy to see things for what they are truly worth. so if we stop comparing for a moment, & just live to be contented with what we have & who we are, how will we become? less snobbish? less pessimistic? or will it hinder our ability of wanting to push forward & be better than some of the rest of the world? how is it that we are born with this instinct of comparing from the beginning? .... actually i'm not sure if i make sense. i don't know how to put this thought into words haha so.. hm. -- this is the SMS conversation i had with Yan. (the rest is unimportant.) lol. -- Yiu & Bo's classes tomorrow (: excited. hehheh. but which also means i can't go for Terence's class at Wu tomorrow as well. T.T because it starts at 1. & ends at 2. eeyer. i've never been taught by him before --" oh well. next time, next time! &.. I AM DAMN SORE NOW. T.T Labels: conversations, thoughts |
