reflection

It is very easy to lose one's way and feel extremely depressed. If I were to tell you why, I can't believe the reasons either because ultimately, they are mere stories and excuses.; someone else did this to me and I didn't get what I want. You know, "I want" are two powerful words, whether it is a verb or there exsits an object of desire. The peace and harmony in a group is disturbed by a "mad chicken" who irritates everyone with her arrogance and ignorance. As a result, I want justice to be done and the "mad chicken" taught a lesson. When I examine the issue further, it is about the survival of a group of people who shares a common goal and wanting to keep things safe and predictable. The "mad chicken" disrupts the stability and threatens the position of the group. And the joke is, her actions are judged base on my kind of justice and morality. It is based on what "I want" and what "I want" is in accordance to the common goal of the group. This happens everywhere but I guess it is always important to be forgiving of others because in this instance, someone else is the "mad chicken" but I strongly believe in the eyes of the Queen of Pop, I am also a "mad chicken". Mercy! Mercy!

How simple it is to label and criticise another person because he / she is not behaving in a way that "I want".
