i juz read one of daphne's previous blog and had this urge to also blog my opinions on her topic. she mentioned abt how superficial man can be at times, when looks and certificates matter more than a person's real character and values. i dun deny the fact tat this is happening in our society. it's true tat many people nowadays take these things into serious consideration when judging a person, many a times allowing these criteria to take over more important ones.but look on the bright side, if there are people who judge and conclude abt a person so firmly juz bcos he or she dun look so good, how important can these people mean to u? why bother to get angry or frustrated with wat these people do? instead, if these immature people dun exist, there wont be a balance in society. it's juz like sacking all the police in the world bcos there aint any more criminals. furthermore, it's often our own mentality tat gives us the extra unneeded, unnecessary and useless stress. it can come as a motivation but when other people's desperate attempts tend to be noticed too easily and we take those actions too seriously, it could also b a hint to us. to show us tat we ourselves cld have been equally superficial and judge with grades or looks, tat we ourselves cld have also been too concerned over grades and looks, tat we cld have also been drugged with the thinking tat we have to prove ourselves with grades or looks.sounds silly rite? but the weirdest thing always turn out to be the truest and most honset answer.i tend to believe tat everyone in the world exist for a purpose. so why not make the world a better one in our own capacity as the younger generation? juz like wat many other students also think, our education system seems to put too much emphasis on studies. it's either u are smart and clever or stupid and average. it decides ur future to a large extent. but if we are juz gg to continue with our complaints and grumblings during our small talks, nothing much is gg to change. maybe it's juz me who is more proactive and confrontational. i rather aspire to be a teacher and slowly make a difference. it may be small but if everyone makes an effort, the generations after us will only stand to gain.i dun want to live in a fantasy world but i never think of reality as being superficial. it may be cruel at times, but any time better than living in some wonderland. living in harsh conditions helps to stimulate our social skills and thinking skills. i dun wanna degrade to a person whose brains aint of any value but take ignorance as happiness. Dreams can come true, everyday. Now it’s your turn to dream. Just look deep in your heart, look to the sky, and make a wish. And maybe, if you believe, your wish can come true.wish really hard and miracles do happen. but in the meantime we had better rmb this period of emotions really deeply in our hearts so tat we dun impose unnecessary stress and pressure on our children in future.:)
