life is meaningless
oh wow, took me like 16 years plus before i came this magnificent conclusion
every day of our lives is wasted away as we spent the minutes and seconds of the day fretting over studies and work so much that we've forgotten to enjoy. why?!?! and if we never do anything constructive, we're simply branded as useless creatures who are hopeless and are trash to the society becos' these useless things that we do for leisure are, as they say, of no use to the society - hence being useless to the society, we're supposedly nothing but parasites. they say to dream big and pursue your dreams. that such is life. but no?! we're always being oppressed by those who speak of nothing but of contributing to the society and that the idea of pursuing our leisure activities is simply foolish, that of an idealist who walks on air. reality vs ideals. who will win the battle? it isn't such a difficult outcome to predict huh?
here we are, burying ourselves in books everyday, as we follow a path that has been set for us since the day we were born, to strive for "A"s and eventually get into university before we get a job as a professional and reap for the society. everyone follows the same path. is that right? where is the meaning in all this? studying has lost its meaning since the day that we've been pushed towards it without a choice. supposedly, it is the dreams that define us. the dreams that we cherish every day of our lives as a little innocent kid untainted by the evils of the society. the naivity of a child, is sadly lost, the moment he/she grows up - for when the years and innocence that come along with it slip away from us, we are left vulnerable against the darkness and are hardened by what we see and hear, losing every bit of the childish dreams we had as we become one of them - a realist, supposedly a down to earth and person brimming with pragmatism.
are u still reading this post, already bored to the core or thinking that this person is sure good at crapping or perhaps provoked by what is said here? well i sure hope it is the last one, that some thought has been provoked with your subconscious plane of the mind. that perhaps the young child withing you questions so much, who is still pure and innocent, will revive and awaken and keep the fire of life within you burning. of cos if you rather dismiss this as crap, well sure go ahead and let the great big bucket of cold water from harsh reality douse the flames. it's not something new anyway. if you are bored, oh well, fret not, this post is reaching its end soon.
just wana say. the next time you see someone doing what he/she likes - be it reading, painting, writing or whatever that is supposedly under the category of "a waste of time" as defined by so many others, please think again. admire them perhaps for having the freedom to pursue their desires.
and why am i blogging such a thing here on vjawc blog? why of cos to lighten up the dying mood over here. great job i am doing huh? oh well, sarcasm overwhelms me
