One Word

Christian Tang


This video is one of my favorite - it is packed with juicy information.

How much you can interpret out of it, it is entirely up to you.

But there are a few interesting things that can definitely unpack here, it mentioned:

"What is the privilege of the dead?"

She said: "To die... ... ... ... ... No more."


Since this world, it seems the truth is always hidden, at least that's how I feel in my life. Injustice or things unknown overrun and ended up me had to deal with some shit things that I don't understand why. It is like when it should have happened that way, suddenly got blocked and became something else. When I suppose to have, become none. When I paid for something, I ended up not getting it... that kind of things illogical things. Sometimes, I wonder how the fuck this world became that cruel, or how did I become the unluckiest person in life... If I have to be honest, dying (is) indeed a privilege to me, maybe even a luxury that I never had a chance to get, no matter how hard I really try (within my comfort level)... At this point, I am sure this story is not unique to me per se, I am sure so many people have gone through something similar. What seems to be the problem is that, ok we don't want to hear about the suicide, but yet, we never explore it deep enough to fix the root cause. If we only "support" them by dragging them out, but ignoring the "root cause", are we really solving the problem? Even if they are alive, are they be able to go back as a happy person? Some do, some don't. Some just pretended to I think.


Day in day out, I think I am being reminded by life itself. Saving a life, the equation was never that simple. Just like in this video, 1 lie is enough to cause the mayhem, no matter how you spin it. If killing that 1 person, can save 100000s of people, but if it is based on a lie, what the ante, is the past, the current and the future lives, which most likely, to exceed 1000000s. Why? We can build a city in 5 years, sure maybe a better one in 10 years. It may even be quicker if we all chip in to it. Rome isn't build on one day - very true. What takes longer to build? Trust and culture, that is something that is across generations. A particular lie, the longer it is kept under, the harder can be resolved. There is a chance if forgiveness exists, but it is something that needs to be able to "talk" about first. Is there any example? Oh yeah, look into our history. Look into Australia. You will get both sides of the stories, but the question remains - HOW FAR DO YOU GO? IN THE END, BOTH SIDE MAY LOSE, OR BOTH ARE WINNERS.


Truth, doesn't mean it is not hurtful, at times, it may even be more uglier than not knowing, but to me, it is a better platform to rebuild. Some may not be able to accept, or move along, but at least, the time bomb that is ticking, would be gone. Whatever being rebuild, will not crumble because of that very reason...


PS: To die ... ... .. ... . .. . .. .. No more. What if I tell you, the same sentence, was said by the same person. Read that again.
