Where is the love?

Where is the love? That's what I am asking. Considering the fact that I am a heavy user of the internet, this thing is seriously getting into me and I'm really feeling a little painful to be online reading articles or just surfing through Facebook or Twitter.

I mean like we all agree that everything has pros and cons just like ying and yang but is our balance a little bit lope sided these days? As technology zoom pass us, it is pretty much a gift. We shrink the world, information get sent across the world so much easier and faster. Talents like Justin Bieber get to fame so much more easier. People gotten a voice, people no longer need main stream media to speak for themselves, everyone can speak for themselves and everyone can defend themselves.

I always say,
"everyone has a voice but the problem is not everyone has a brain." 

We must understand a fact that everybody has their own ideas and thoughts for everything. I can call myself an idealist and so do you but our ideal situation might not be the same. The truth about differences is that everybody is different, we do not need to make everyone think like you. 

This is one thing that people fail to understand thus having so many pointless online arguments.

You can fight for your right and I can fight for mine but I do not see the need to change another person or even trying to prove the other party wrong.

I am pro LGBT... you are not. done. We do not need to go on to insult people who pro LGBT are blah blah blah and people who are against LGBT are blah blah blah. As much as we point fingers and say that people who are against something are narrow minded, the fact is that so are we when we are doing that. If we are really open minded, we will understand the fact that why some people cannot accept certain thing. It just happens. This is how the world works.

I am feeling too much negativity on the social web especially locally these days. We complain about CPF, we complains about SMRT, STB, HDB, ERP, COE and to join the rank and in fact I must say this is one of the longest running rage online ever - NLB.

This is so painful that I do not even wish to weight in my thoughts because it has been overly discussed over the last weeks and I really tired and whatever I want to talk about should probably be written by others already.

Yes, I would say some "good" did come along with such happenings because some people get more informed and the situation has created more awareness. Some people made some good points and some didn't. But the thing is did they achieve what they want? In fact more and more books are getting pulled out isn't it? The fact is that it's not just about a book or two, it's about the principle of it. Yes I hear this loud and learn.

I feel like very often people are abusing the fact that they have "a voice" and they are fighting for the sake for the fighting. They are fighting for things that has been there for the longest time but they just wish to be heard and they feel the need to satisfy that need of theirs.

Racist, Gender, Animal Abuse, Money, Gahment and everything else. It's just too much..

Ya ya, let's fight for every smallest thing. 

Is it really necessary?

I like this article I saw on Facebook. Full of satire and yeah.. just read it.  By Joshua Chiang: (I think, I saw it on his FB which is shared by a friend)

It's time we colour-blind people stand up against the outright discrimination against us by almost all nations of the world. That's right, we're talking about how we have been unable to drive due to traffic lights having colours many of us can't tell apart!

We are thus organising a Green Dot event to protest this social injustice. We have chosen green as our official colour because red-green colour deficiency is the most common among all colour deficiencies, and green is also the colour that says 'go' in most traffic systems.

There will be speeches and color-guessing games based on the Ishihara charts and then we will form a giant GREEN DOT in the centre of the venue. Please come dressed in GREEN; if you don't know what green looks like, see the logo attached.

But because of things like these, more and more issues are surfacing isn't it? I guess sometimes the best control is no control. There are things in life that we really need things to move along as it should be.

Or maybe it's just me. Like I'm the typical type of fans if I support a band I will probably listen to your songs and maybe buy your albums but if you ask me about joining fan club, making banner, waiting for you at the airport or even tail gating you when you are in town, nah. But that doesn't means I do not support you, I do, I do it with action and action I think it's enough.

I am not saying that all of you should be like me - a silent supporter but I am saying that if you are one of those with a course, go ahead and do it. I am not stopping you, I do not need you to stop, I do not need you to agree with me but I am just saying I am so tired of your online action.

Despite of all the angry read online, I found this very interesting article:

My son wears dress but that's okay with me.

Whatever the case is, I wish you guys happy!
