choice

I’ve been thinking about motivations( with relation to me crossing over) and also was discussing with my friend on twitter. Motivations, right or wrong. Do they matter? Rising the ranks in the military, for personal achievement or to improve the org, do they matter? Joining the army as a career cause you think its a suitable career or because you feel that the army is a worthy org for you to put in your effort. Just some things to think about. Well, the rationalist would just feel that they all don’t matter as they let you get your job done ( purpose of motivations). What do you think?

spin

It feels like the world is revolving without you. That was how I felt when we met up. I missed those times in cj when we always hid in the council room in the morning, away from the school. I missed those times when we went for night study sessions together and how jeremy would get koi for us. I missed those times when we were busy preparing for events that we forget the time. It was the best part of my life so far. Everyone was one. I miss you 35th student council.

the lessons.

I just read this book ‘the lessons’ by naomi alderman and it really set me thinking. As we grow up, we realise that everything about life is arbitrary. I think that was what the book was trying to put across and it is through these arbitrary incidents and coincidences, we learn lessons and find meaning to it.

Just to share, there was this rather long phrase in the book which I found rather striking: There is a kind of love which is selfless. It is a love which waits through all things, which is patient and hopeful, which does not need to be returned. It is a love which is confident in itself and burns on and on though no fuel is added to the fire. It is a perfect love; more perfect than the love between equals. I do not know if it is a love towards which it is proper for human beings to aspire.

How great if we could all possess or experience this kind of love for someone we know. But we know we are unable, because we are human beings and human beings tend to be selfish and self-motivated so much so that society has no place for pure generosity and compassion that requires no incentive.

We can point out all the wrongs but talk is cheap. Actions are inert.

Some for food for thought, its quite messy though.

indecisiveness

When indecisiveness occurs and one is pressed to make a decision.
