i was just doing my maths papers, doing a multiplication sum, when i suddenly realized how powerful our minds are.
just think of it. our minds record down every single thing that happens each day in our memory and we know the multiplication table very well, because we have memorised it in our heart. we can speak two languages and we know how to write and say simple english and chinese words because they have been drilled into our minds from young. this really impresses me. how much information can our minds contain before they go beserk? how do our minds store information? how do we do a "search" in our minds to find the correct information needed? all this curiouses me further more. but i know i'll not bother to research about them. just curious.
anyway. has been quite a good week. have you been following your horoscope? horoscopes are printed everyday in the newspaper right? but how many people actually follow what they say you can do, or cannot do? i wonder. is there really scientific proof that horoscopes work? or are they only like fortune tellers, which we know for a fact that most of them cheats?
isn't that how we live our lives? many of us live our lives according to rules. i am one of them too. but think of it, one day, if we could free ourselves from all these rules and live freely, what would this world become? we are all tied down in our lives by responsibilities and people telling us what we must do. many of us believe that we must lead a specific life, just like our parents, or other people has done. for example, many of us believe that it is only right for us to go to university, then get a job, marry and have kids. right?
but take a second to think. is that what we really want? or is that what we are supposed to act like?
now in society. there are many gays or lesbians. i think we should not despise them. however, we should respect them because they have had the courage to face up to the truth and admit their sexuality. i believe tha takes a certain amount of courage, as many of us now cannot even admit our mistakes.
but it is only right to admit and learn from our mistakes. that is how people are suppposed to be. but here we go again. are we supposed to be or we want to be? something to ponder over today.
