Today, saw a very short documentary film. I saw some sad clips about how some lower income people are living, especially the older generations. Life sometimes could be so cruel and too realistic. The more I see this world....the real fact is I realize this world really talk about 2 things, "money" and that's "power". However not alot of people know how to use this "power" properly. If there's a better ruler in this world, there wouldn't be so much suffering...and I guess it starts within family. If every family is brought up with a caring heart, love, no anger, with more emphasize on "moral", "filial piety", this world would really be a better place to live for all ages, even including the seniors, they will be taken care off dearly.


As I see the world, we have been too busy chasing after things for our whole life; money, lover, etc.....but it doesn't nourishes the mind and body...it only drained the life out of us, that's because we're not sure what we really want. But the mere fact is we all try to find true happiness, only that we've been looking for it at the wrong place. Perhaps we should find it within us....spiritually.


When we're little...we still very innocent. However, as we get older, we're educated with education. But is the wrong kind of education...because all it teach you is science, history..and knowledge of the world. The higher educated you're, you'll slowly notice the one very main goal of education is the door to wealth and a more comfortable living. It create such a big gap in the society between the poor and the wealthy. Is sad how things worked out...does it have to be this way all the time....so much inequality.


Of course there's great spiritual leaders and good education out there, teaching us how to nourish our heart and mind.


The more we're occupied with our own lives...we become more selfish each and every year. Too busy looking for money, trying to survive, paying off debt, when debt is paid off, have to deal with other matters like love life, family etc... Then before we know it...the whole life is over ..but a dream....everything that we've work for...wealth...position...we've to give up.


For more than a century and throughout history humans have been living in this small little family cycle....our circle of life is so limited. I wonder how it would be if we get out of this cycle of marriage, being free, being liberated, trying to be more involved in the community, enlarging life cycle. It would be very interesting to see how this enriches a person soul and it nourishes the very route of compassion and open up the door of liberation for self and others who're suffering the most. At the very end of life...your life is not a dream....everything we've work for...is not for ourselves...is for others....nothing too gain...nothing too loose.


I guess everyone has to choose their path in this life time. Hope everyone is able to find the right path to happiness.
