Cruelty and the exploited

It's coming to 8yrs since I first arrived into Singapore. Before I arrived here, I was told that Singapore is a country where the government expects alot from the citizen. Through the conversation from my family members and relatives, it is understandable the expectation from the government to imposed certain rules and regulation to the country. This is to safeguard the interest and the future benefit of the younger generation. I can't compare the situation that I am experiencing right now to my home country where my roots belong to. Which I felt that many of us as a migrant to Singapore felt the same way too.

Through this times where I had spend my 8 years here, its considerable to say that I have seen many different things as well as understanding how such things happened in the society. Where such hierarchy of social factor that comes into place, it is well important to know and to understand that we are lucky and to be thankful of who am I at the current presence state.

I am writing this while I got inspired by the person most precious to me, the one who I wish to treasure for the rest of my life. While I shared my joy with my colleague, it struck me in my head that which I thought I am the only one seeing this, but actually this happens everywhere in the world.

Did anyone of us know that the world is so real? It is so real that money is the root of all evil. Without money, the world will not turn around. The world economy will not tumble like a little snow ball causing an avalanche. For some reason from the big brothers in the United States who wants the money and that causes many of us from the other side of the world to suffer.

But money is not all that we need in our lives. After seeing many events that happened this year as compare to the events I experienced a couple of years back, I could truely say that this year alone, I have seen the rich, the middle class and the poor. The rich are so rich that money to them is just an object for them to use. Money is also an object for them to splurge which makes their younger generation failed to analyze the importance of money and to them, money is just another part of their life without knowing the true value of it.

But nevermind about that, it makes me angry when it comes to the topic of money. I have seen the other side of the world without the need to worry of the importance of money. Which many of us who were there, we understand the lives of these group of people. Sometimes, simple lives means simple mind.

Nevertheless, my statement here is living modest provides the best for yourself and your family.

I have been visiting my gf's family regularly recently which I make a point to visit them at least once a week to say hi and also to have a meal with them. As far as I am concern, I would like to maintain such practice for a long period of time. Both of us felt as though that we have been married for years and we are actually behaving like a married couple. I enjoyed the company of hers as well as her family and her extended family.

Looking at her family again, it makes me to take a step back and to understand more on my argument I stated in my early topic which makes me think that every single family in Singapore is almost perfect. But having to know her and her family, I have to say the experience has proved me wrong where in every part of this world, what I believe that cohesiveness bring forth a balance society of rich, mid and the poor. Living harmoniously and to bring peace and opportunity for everyone.

What I have experienced for the past few months, it is priceless. Money can not buy such experiences. When I was younger, stories such as drugs, abuse, divorce and etc seems so fictional. I have never thought that I would have to see such things right in front of my own eyes. I mean it did not happened right in front of my own eyes, but the people who are going through it are all around me every single day now.

Such fiction turns realitygaves me the interest to look further into how actually a society works. How it forms, how did it happened, how did it occured and etc. Did anyone of us actually open our eyes to see the world enough and to be brave enough to say that I am not afraid of what comes forth.

I solely believe that no matter your age is, your vision to the world is just a window frame that builds upon the glass every inch a day. It is the effort that you place in your heart to understand what is happening right now at the very second of you sitting in front of your computer.

Think of what you can learn, think of what you can contribute and finally think of who you really are. And to the one I am in relationship now, I wish to treasure you for the rest of my life and to spend as much time as possible together and to work things out for our future.

Love you always.
