Breathe and then the breath is gone,
See and then the sight is gone,
embrace a moment,
and then its gone
such it is that life is,
every second to be cherished.

ugh...yes...
the mortality of existence is bugging me again...
I can't help but be overly calculative about my life span..
or the remaining life span of my parents..
thinking about my funeral...
heheh...
but it is inevitable...
and worrying like that is futile..

A few days ago...
I told Donovan that...
NS is a waste of time and that people who do not want to serve it aren't selfish..
I think that you do not owe Singapore anything...
what you do with your life should be your own..
life is such a sacred thing given to you..
that you should not be burdened by any mortal obligations unless
it is willingly done so...
the choice is of fundamental importance
heh...
well..
NS is a waste of time but in society today...
it has become necessary for it..
I want to see the people in Singapore safe..
I could care less about a country..
but not people.
sigh..
such is the reality perceived by general society..
flowing like a river
that we are driven to follow the currents
difficult to resist it...
we are drawn further and further from what we desperately feel like achieving in out lives.
Where are the saints and buddhas of our generation?..
