Living in a world of limitations

I feel that this is an era of limitations. Sometimes you may feel that something you want to do is not something wrong, they simply don't let you do it. And there are many rules and regulations that tell you that you cannot do something without telling you the reasons. Or even if it does, the reasons may be something ridiculous that you simply can't agree with.

Let's think about this situation: There is this rule, although well known, but broken purposely or inpurposely a thousand(or more) times a day. And what is more interesting is that, even the ones who are supposed to enforce the rules don't accuse anybody who breaks the rules in a normal situation. What is the meaning of having this rule? Shouldn't this rule be reconsidered and changed accordingly?

I have not been the rule maker so perhaps I am a bit naive regarding this. But I think rules should be made with some clear reasons that really have the points. And it should be flexible and adaptive to this ever changing environment. This is especially important in this IT age. Everything changes so fast nowadays.

In the past, since it is impractical to get all the people involved in making decisions regarding rules and regulations, we have representatives, who are supposed to voice out our opinions. However, the situation is much different now with the advent of IT technologies. It may be insecure sometimes, but I think it is practical enough to give everyone a chance to vote for a decision to be made, or send their opinions directly to the authorities.

So, to the rule makers out there: please respect the ones who are supposed to follow the rules you are making, ask their opinions before making any decisions. With this you may get better rules which will be willingly accepted by the majority of people.

Thanks.

Spam & Junk Mail of the day!

Recently I got many mails with titles like this:

"Please help me update my address book"

and this:

"Join XXX's Network".

And I have had enough. Somemore the latter will keep on sending you following requests if you ignore the former mails. Although there is a link(I am not sure but there should be) to stop further invitations, I feel that is very cruel to click on it coz that will make me feel guilty about blocking my friends!

So, please don't simply forward mails or send such invitation mails to friends since it could be a disaster to him/her.

Perhaps somebody may think that this is an easy way to keep in touch but there are actually many other better ways to do this. Just keep this in mind, "Something you enjoy may not be so to someone else".

What do you want?

When was the last time you thought about what you want in life? Perhaps you are happy with your life now, perhaps you are not. Since the world is getting better and better, we(ok, most of us living in the cities) don't have to worry about food, accomodations and other necessities in life anymore. This gives us more time to think. However, I am not very sure if this is a good thing.

Last time when I was a child, everything was so simple. And I always seemed to know what did I want at a specific moment. But not anymore. Life is filled with so many things now and I don't really know which are more important than the others.

Life can be so simple but we tend to make it complicated and difficult. More advancement in sciences and technologies brings us more possibilities. And then more possibilities bring more options and choices. With more choices you need to make more decisions. And I don't think making decisions is something easy. Therefore, most of the time spent everyday is on making decisions. To do or not to do. Do now or do it later. etc etc... And this is quite tiring for me.

I think I am going to cut down the unnecessary in my life and make it simpler this year. Let add this to the list of my New Year's resolution.

Ok, going to get up earlier tomorrow.
See ya and Gnite.

And songs are good ;D

About our brain...

Just found this interesting article on the Internet. I think I am the one of the LWM group who is also affected by pressure...

... Oh did I just say that I want to live with more confidence?!?! Ok... I am of course in the HWM group who is not affected by pressure at all... (err.. I refer this as "cheating oneself behaviour"...)

Happy Chinese New Year!!!

Happy Chinese New Year to everybody!!! I hope that this will be a better year to everyone, including myself :P

OK, although I never put any New Year resolution into practice, I still want to make one this year. I hope I can live with more confidence and more trust in myself, and can make up my mind about what to achieve in my next stage of life :D Emm, sound great.

Do you have any New Year resolution? Share with me if you don't mind. I promise I won't laugh at you... hahaha... (^0^)
