We are now living in the world full of uncertainty. With the fast pace of globalization, we too are trapped within the dimension of the unknown and unprecedented.
The word 'Power' now is in the game.
Power has always been linked to two things and two things only - good and evil - mostly evil for those who choose to abuse it. Innocent human beings; without realizing what is happening; continue to live in oblivion (mind you...not the video-game) because of the continuous misappropriation of power occurring everywhere around the globe.
The chain effect becomes faster and greater when you; readers; and I; writer says that :
"Aaaah..that's life, so what? Just shut-up and move along - as long as we don't disturb one another, we'll be fine".
Ironically this is still too far from the truth and the reality. Look around you!!
Whenever we say these words, we tend to be lead astray with such rethorical and nonsensical philosophy. When?
When our own planet being colonized, our resources, our lands, our houses, our money etc by unscrupulous illogical human beings who thinks that possessing such 'Power' and 'Influence' will be eternal. And what do they say to you?
"This is Progress...this is Development.... Learn to live with it" and by a blink of an eye, your backyard becomes a development project. If you're lucky enough, you will be given some money and you're gone - shifting from one place to another.
Behind you, the actual words would be :
"You're backwards, you're uneducated, you're dumb, you're anti-progress etc"
Yes, I'm 'anti-progress' because I'm against people who cut trees or destroy greeneries
Yes, I'm 'uneducated' because I say "wow...is this global warming..so burning hot!!
....while walking from my house to the stall just 700m away - perspiring heavily and rapidly dehydrated - not even a single car wish to stop and give a ride - such jerks!!
And Yes, I'm 'dumb' for not following the current so-called destructive trends
Am I the only one who's reacting unexpectedly to the climate changes?
Does climate-shift has something to do with my erratic behaviours?
As I see the progress in the human chronicles - I see :
a) wireless technology evolutionizing itself - WAP, Bluetooth, 3G, 4G etc, PAN, Wi-Fi, Wi-Max, Broadband, X-Max etc.
But I also see some human beings using 'sophisticated gadgets' are smiling ironically when they see me using a normal conventional mobile phone (Man..you're no where to me)
b) people working and walking in KL, New York, London and other big cities – not having much time to talk to one another - perhaps they are too busy.
But I also see people who are working/walking rarely cares for others - say...when they see accidents happening right in front of their eyes or pickpockets forcibly steal other people's property or hearing arguments which may end fatal,
And I also witnessed people who are too busy rarely looking at elements of poverty amidst the city hustles.
Ultimately, I now see elements of the dark sides forming - betrayals, ruined marriages, self-centred attitudes, ruined families, liars, swindlers, cheaters, robbers, thieves, gangsters, racists, extremists etc.
So, this is what we have become – more complex under the pretext of “the new way of life” ? or "This is trendy"??
Well..to add up - we see diabetes, hypertension, cardiac arrests, aches here and there etc.
1) So, what modern economics say about equal distribution of wealth are simply lip service?
2) People are telling me about renewable energies – has it been equally distributed?
3) How about politics nowadays? Where is it heading?
4) I wonder; in the near future; will I still see tranquility in flora and fauna, beautiful sandy beaches, orchards etc.
5) Will the earth be healed of so much wounds caused by homosapiens?
6) Why are the teenagers today have their own styles, their own terminologies etc.?
7) Will I be left behind and be accused of 'lack of progress' or 'not following the current trend?'
8) Where did innocent little children learn how to swear, curse etc. (visit a cybercafe and look at the kids who are playing games..what do they say when they loose?)
9) Some people fantasizing and delusioning that "he/she is the MOST popular person in the world" or "he/she is the SAVIOR", "he/she is the fairest, most handsome of all", "he/she is the richest of all", "he/she is the most glamorous of all"...gosh.... :-)
10) People who claim that they're so educated and advanced thinking YET fall for online scams, get rich quick scheme, money laundering, pyramid scheme, urban-legends etc.
11) People who are not thankful for what or who they are - naturally. One who sees, ignores, hates and overlooks the local culture and tried to blend with 'other people's culture' and dare to claim that this 'new culture' are theirs since they were born...this is the BIGGEST JERK OF ALL!
What would be the solutions? Have you got the answer?
