Stranger

I woke up one day
and had a regular conversation with a buddy
only to realize she isn't looking into my eyes when she speaks.
Sentences were short and the tone were monotonous.

Heartbroken but figured I might be over thinking it.
Only to realize a few others slowly follow the same sign after a week...
And I could only wonder what have I done wrong to be ignored.

Was it the notes I left on the stairs or the dinners I never went?
Or am I over thinking it...
My instinct can't be wrong...
Something is wrong.
What is it?

What is success?

Do you have an aim in life?
Today I set in my car wondering what am I capable of doing to serve not for anyone, but for myself.

"What can you do for yourself, Keng Sein?"

Is living an easy and comfortable life sufficient to keep my life going?
I googled a word which is probably suitable to my question... what is success?

Pablo Picasso: Action is the foundational key to success.

Probably it is time for me plan for success and take an action that actually matters.
I'm dehydrated from the lack of inspiration.
The lack of action is making me age faster.

Visitation

At any level your education, you will find a point where you are ordered to "give back" to the society of the less fortunate by a simple gesture

"Visitation".

May it be for the abandoned animals or the old folks who were left to resolve the rest of their life in a home,
we do visit them and show whatever the school wants us to show.

We would most probably be doing it out of the sense of obligation.
The school would probably be doing it out of the sense of professionalism.
And the government should probably be doing it out of the sense of duty.

and when you try to mind map the whole process involved,
have you wondered if sympathy and sense of appreciation are even involved in the topic of the less fortunate?

You may say, this is a noble attempt, similarly practiced in the flyer marketing scheme,
"you give 1 million out, at least 1 or two would realize it and your mission is accomplished."
Maybe forcing 1 million students from all around Malaysia to do their charitable contribution, one out of these million would actually realize and do something about it.

Maybe I'm just a lil cynical but I do think this noble attempt would cause more damage than benefits.

I think the visitation looks so much like a job, that when a student does visit charitable homes, they would perform their best to show the well mannered part of them and goes back home thinking about their next task.

You leave the people or animals involved with a hope and faith that the people beyond their home actually do care but when the next batch of people comes in, they never seem to be the people of the same faces.

A visitation by a stranger.
How does that help those unfortunate people?
Have you ever wondered what is the point of giving false hope only to forget about it sooner or later because we have to move on with our own life?
So why do we touch the life of the others when we aren't going to do anything about it anyway?
I think this attempt to finish our moral projects in the cost of using the less fortunate is morally wrong.
If you want to do something, make it big and worth while.
Who are you to walk into their home thinking you know how it feels like to be them, make a little scene as if u are going to make a difference and just walk out like you are done?

What is the point of such pathetic act of contribution when it may in the end cause emotional and psychological damage to the less unfortunate?

You don't make things better for them.
You don't understand them better.
You obviously didn't change much either.

The lack of research in this form of visitation and moral module are truly unsightly.
It is not like I'm asking for this whole visitation thing to be stopped.
It does help one way or another to make some of us realized our responsibility.
I just feel we could do more than just smile and show our face to help the less fortunate.
This should be reviewed and strictly enforced.


Cause keeping the morality ruler in our society up is the only way to stop corruption to further domination of our mind....
