See, look and observe

Friday, May 19th, 2006

Look around you…

Are the people around always seem to be in a rush?

Look more carefully…

Are their shoulders strained?

Now take a look at their faces…

How come everyone ain’t a bit relaxed at all?

True enough, bread and butter matters a lot to every individual. However life is more than that. People has neglected the small details around them. Paying attention to them maybe insignificant, but it does affect us in a big way. For example, you are about to enter a lift with a stranger. He initiates by giving you a hand gesture suggesting " You first". You responded with the same gesture " You should go first". Both smiled and entered the lift. What do you think the atmosphere in the confined space will be? In short, your trip in the lift isn’t that restricted and suffocating as it seems to be. On another occasion, you meet someone whom you know from the same school but you dun really knew that person. You gave her a smile. She replied back with a gentle smile. Instantly it breaks the cold wall between each individual. Your school mate wont be such a total stranger to you anymore right? Such small courtesy does benefit you a long way and your day wont be that dull afterall.

"Hey what are we gonna do after work?"

Think for a moment.

What will be the answer?

Movies, acrade, shopping, karaoke?

Try for yourself, take a break from the routine. Go admire the seaview at night, take a look at the skies above you or even take a small stroll around your neighbourhood…You might be able to find something interesting, and all you need to do is to observe carefully. I am not gonna to tell you what you will find. It is not for me to know and is for you to discover for yourself.

Live life to the fullest…
