As old saying goes, life is complicated. Live everyday to its maximum. Do not regret. There wont be a next one.
This line is cliche. Everyone knows how to say it. Do people ever live lives to the max? Well, some really do. They involve themselves in a matter of own interest, or of the public goods. Some dont regret their lives 'cause they are satisfy with theirs. What is yours cant be mine. What is mine cant be yours. Individuals strive to achieve their own goals, collectivists comply to the society. Its the way how we see it not what we see it.
Why do office politics happen? Others who are not in the know, may think those are just arrogant, think-they-know-all, 'bit indifferent. For all you may know, these pathetic fools are just trying to gain some recognition, live their own lives, struggling to live, compete for self-egoism, etc. etc..
Why would I not want to face the "real" world? 'Cause I know there would be masks everywhere you go. Constant change is true. Even the heart and mind turn itself, sometimes unknowingly. Who would ever need a "fengshui" master? He might not even know the truth.
Blubbers. Whenever I type this long, I might be bored or I just feel like typing. Possibly I think non-stop too. About stupid stuffs. I wallow about every small things. There was even once I thought about helping the UN. Saving the third world countries is their motto. I shivered when I thought in depth about death. How would a person's life end? The whole conciousness would go where? Fear about death is normally what you cannot do the things you want to do. Besides, you would never know what might happen. By the way, what does it mean to be "in other people's shoes"? Can we replace their minds and know what they are thinking about? If ever one day, you wake up to find yourself in the body and mind of someone else, what would you do? Grins.
