Money Stems Evil?
26th, a joy to behold. A transition into the stage, making my name, and brilliant opportunity to reflect of all i had done for a quarter of a century, and what more is to come for the next.
My cycling trip was nothing short of amazing. To have my skin carressed by the wind, and with music (aahhh music, the best companion i could have) and pumping amino acids into my legs (i was really tired), i've rediscovered my keen sense of wonderment.
Ohh how joyous and childlike it was to cycle at, i dont know, 60km/h downhill from kent ridge park, and screaming my lungs out, at 11pm in the night. (I did it three times!!!) I can only imagine, when i bungee jump, or sky dive, hell, even terrain crossing in a jungle. I miss it...
Upon my reflection, ive discovered someone else...myself. My love for myself. For all the many grinding bumps i had for the year, ive had made out alot for myself. Ive somehow, deep within, and touch my aura, and held it in my hands. Beautiful, sublime, ive manifested myself into an orb, and i couldnt take my eyes of it, and i was in love again. My biggest biggest growth, was to love myself again....
I have thought alot about what next year is about, and whats my milestones will be like..(look out for the next post, ''Dream up a Year'' ) and yes dennet, i am writing another one soon. Before u know it.
I was thinking about money, and as uncanny it is, Dennet, glad you touched on it.
I was reflecting back to the age and how the powerful has affected the choices.
There are so much philanthropic work around the world, and yet, has something significant really changed? Maybe except we know that global warming is real?
Who puts in the biggest impact, Activists (Green Peace)?, Leaders (Ghandhi)?, Businesses?....
Go with me on this...
Once upon a time, it took leaders to make and shape the countries, and impact in societies, ...now there are none.
If you look at the number of high profile philantropic works, it comes from the businesses. Bill Gates, warren buffet, name anyone, they must have done it one way or another.
Activists..and i mean the green peace, PETA, where are they? I am sorry if i sound ignorant, but do they have much money?! What is their impact? Where is the growing fondness of these group of people, compared to Bill, Warren? (They are my friends now)
Look at overly paid footballers, why do they get paid ridiculous amounts of money, ...for entertainment?? Do they make a better growth for society other than entertainment...compared to ummm...Teachers, heck, Gardeners. I dont know,
I know one thing, there needs to be a shift in the way, the value of money is in tangent with the value it contributes to the world. The time for Bill Gates and Warren, is here now, and Gandhi, is a thing of a past...activist will always be there, somehow...IF only, we cram all of them together as one being. Now thats a thought.
Love u all.
I love u dennet
I love u chan liang
And Jared, since your reading this, I love u

The whole money issue is a result of the sad state that the world is in now. Dying, are the days where people were valued by their values rather than how much money they have. I'm not saying that activists should chase after money to get their attention ( because then the focus is on money), but perhaps the impact would be greater if the nonchalant attitude towards money is displayed by a person who has the capability to earn alot. It'll be like blasphemy for most of them.
Just what I felt, after reading your posts. Keep it going guys, I love all of you too.
thanks bro!
