stupidity

If you think that people who look down on others who they think are stupid, are stupid, I agree. I'm one of them.

endearing hypocrisy

There are people who dislike others making sacrifices for their sake, but they would've done the same.

And that is one of the many kinds of hypocrite that I'm fond of.

selflessness

Have you ever been (or did something) selfless, and someone comes to you and tells you that you shouldn't be. They tell you that you should be more selfish.

And these the same people who bemoans that the world is lacking of selfless people.

Is it me, or they don't really know what they want?

envy

Isn't it funny that when someone criticizes what our principle and lifestyle, they also envy it?

halfway

I have two ways to say goodbye.

The first would be to say it now, to say it in words. To do this, the sole purpose would be for the tears.

The second would be to say nothing at all, and to let time deal with the memory. Time and space will sweep things away, slowly, but surely.

Can I?

Maybe, just maybe your tears would convince me that I'm not unloved. That I'm loved. That I meant something...

But this would also serve to convince me that I do not love you as much as I think I do, for if I really do love you as much as I think I do, I wouldn't, no, couldn't bear to see you cry. Not ever.

I guess I just don't love you enough.




Or perhaps, just perhaps, that you couldn't care less.

If I'm your friend, I guess you don't need enemies, aye?

learn, educate

While we may complain that we're better off without our current education system, lack of it has been cited as the primary reason for poverty and social ills.
Maybe we ungrateful ones should trade places with those who are desperate for it, hmm?

Plus, these days, I find it harder and harder to differentiate between the educated (or perhaps ill-educated) and the uneducated, and more often than not, the latter could've been easily thought to be the former if one were to judge based on attitude and manner.

No, the second paragraph is not an argument against education. If we were to recognize that being a teacher does not imply that one has learned all that is necessary, but should still strive to gather knowledge, shouldn't it be obvious that a bad student cannot make a good teacher?

le petit foi

I hide my faith because of my weaknesses,
My weaknesses, they seem bigger than my faith,
Out of fear for my faith,
Fearing it be overwhelmed,
I hid it,
I hide my faith, where it is safe,
My faith is hidden where it is safe,
Because I am fearful for my small, little faith.

attention

I crave for attentions.

And that is exactly why I go to lengths to avoid them.
