Usually, when u see me stern looking( i think its called fierce looking), its because i am focused on my goal, i am pumped up and all ready to go. So focused that i actually constantly planning and visualizing what i'll be doing a week, or even months ahead..
But,
Sometimes on the rare occasion that you do see me smiling, its not because i archived my target, its because i am enlightened, to understand that i do not make the cut..
Aiya, to sum it up, just make a wish when you see me smile, i assure you that you wun see a meteorite in Singapore's sky.(=
Lets go into today's topic. I just wanna ask a very simple question: How many of you actually gave up your seat to another person while you were on the MRT?
I am sure, if not confirmed, that everyone reading this would have had done the "so called" simple act.
I am curious, what actually is running through one's mine when he/she gives up his or her seat? When i was younger, all i ever thought of was was that i did a good deed by letting a person who needs the seat more than me to sit. But now, as the complexity of my mind grew, i became more reluctant to give my seat up.
Why?Heres why. Anyone of you here actually thought about what the 'benefactor' is thinking? What if he/she have a high self esteem and deems him/herself as fit and 'not old'? Will the act of giving up your seat be rude if thats the case?Isn't it the same as shooting him or her right in the face, telling him/her "you are old!"?
There is one such incident, i was siting down on the train when someone 'old' came into the train. I wanted to give up my seat, but hesitated. Then,in a matter of seconds, someone(in their 40s?) offered their seat, and that 'old' lady managed to seat down, before complaining that youths nowadays don't respect their elders. Shes not refering to me,but, as a youth, aint i giving her my utmost respect by not shooting her straight in the face that shes old?(I am not angry here, just confused) So people actually weigh the 'physical' side of respect more than the 'emotional' side of it? Don't know, i think my mind is alien. ~.~
