have a bite of my sandwich, make yourself richer and better.

i think we live life in cycles.
people are divided in cycles.
you dont switch cycle unless you get too motivated, and motivation needs to last for a time long enough to enable switching of cycle.

so if u happen to be caught in the lower rung of life, and you aspire to be higher up the hierarchy, u jolly well have to be a little more optimistic and slightly inspired to start on the project of elevation. of status.

besides sharing the same human background, issues of status continue to keep us very much divided. you are made into this heavenly object by human concept/definition if you are say, affluent like donald trump.

i wake up everyday, a student, dreading going to school, attending lectures with unattractive lecturers. A 55 year old woman in the next block wakes up a janitor, dreading cleaning toilets; which happen to be her workplace.

when u say hi to a bus driver would they look at u weird and think maybe u want a free ride cause u have no spare change in your pocket and your ez link card has minus fiftynine cents?

that is defence mechanism.the bus driver's first reaction would be to think that you are trying to cheat him of his income. his stable SBS ricebowl ironically fed to him by this damned government.

anyway, on a side note, in singapore, it is just not normal to say hello to a bus driver. he is the driver and u are the passenger and these are our jobs and a job makes the person.

so if u have an okay job, you are only an okay person. that is your status in society; your social status. and you are judged according to it. unapologetically so.

thats why when lawyers can only ever talk about law and the newest judge and the rules of court and the upcoming cases they will be dealing with it is a pretty sad thing to watch and potentially be part of if and when you join the profession.

alot of things are fake and shit but sometimes necesssary to hold our society together. just like how paper needs glue to create a heart and to stay a heart.
we beat with love.

maybe not.

charity and acts of kindness under a blanket of guilt and shame. dropping a few coins into a donation can will not atone for your sins. why should a dirty christian be saved just because he confessed his sins a few minutes before death and a devout buddhist be made to go to hell? because of Jesus?

Because no one comes to the father through his son Jesus Christ? So it means the literal "Yes I take Jesus to be my Lord and Saviour" and from that sentence on, you gain a highly-coveted ticket to this mysterious christian-only place called heaven.

bear in mind context. and the possible occurence of misintepretation.
think before you speak just like how you have to knock on the door before it opens.
