My daddy is in China now. I wonder how he is. Today seems perfect somehow. I went to sunday service today. He said that Singapore is well known for education and also labelling people.
In school, we're labelled as normal and to make things worse, we're labelled as normal acadamic and normal technical. There is nothing wrong. But why do we have to study 5 years when express students get to study 4 years? We are learning the same topics, the same subjects. we aren't that differnt right?
so that pastor said that we as youths cannot be labelled and be told we're useless or stupid.
I kinda agree.
Lost Generation by Jonathan Reed
I am part of a lost generation
and I refuse to believe that
I can change the world
I realize this may be a shock but
“Happiness comes from within.”
is a lie, and
“Money will make me happy.”
So in 30 years I will tell my children
they are not the most important thing in my life
My employer will know that
I have my priorities straight because
work
is more important than
family
I tell you this
Once upon a time
Families stayed together
but this will not be true in my era
This is a quick fix society
Experts tell me
30 years from now, I will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of my divorce
I do not concede that
I will live in a country of my own making
In the future
Environmental destruction will be the norm
No longer can it be said that
My peers and I care about this earth
It will be evident that
My generation is apathetic and lethargic
It is foolish to presume that
There is hope.
And all of this will come true unless we choose to reverse it .
Read the message, then read it again in reverse.
awesome isn't it?
