Today's world, we have advanced technology, tall buildings, there's a price on everything. I found out that this world has no secrets amongst us. Wikileaks, facebook and many more. Hahahaha... I have no idea whether it's a benefit or a harm. Well man, you tell me. xDDD
I was thinking real hard about what is the cause of materialistic society, while I was having dinner with my mum at the restaurant. I even went to ask my Form 2 & 3 English Language teacher, my forever madam. She answered me, it's the ego of men. The ego identification with materials create attachment to things, obsession with materials. In our self worth is not define with the materials we possess. They are more to show off to increase their sense of worth.
Yes, it's the ego of men. I could imagine all the people in this world living for today. And then I went to ask my mum, is money really that important? Why is this tool, money could control everyone in the world?
She answered, '' Money is important, but there's a lot of more important thing other than money. '' And then she told me her real life story, which make some liquid kept falling from my eyes, oh yeah, they call it tears. I have no cried since years. '' When your father is still healthy, I used to tell him that I have earned nothing after married him. Every possession like car, house and bank account were under his name. And then, your father laughed at me, he said 'You have me and our sons'. Until that day, he passed away, the house, car and bank account become mine, but I have lost him, forever. He did not leave a single debt after he gone. ''
And then, my tears kept dropping on the plate. Everyone was wondering why is this young man crying. Hahaha. So embarrassing. Finally, I understand, in this materialistic society, love does exist. We do have a home. Money is just a tool but love is a light in our life. As a saying goes by Mother Theresa, '' We cannot do great thing in life, but we can do many little thing with little deeds of love and kindness. ''
No matter what, I will become a good man, as I promised him. Love is the answer of life because love, always wins. Therefore my friends, cherish your time with your loved ones, no matter who they are, love them, trust them and care about hem. Love the Life you Live everyday.
