A Very Own "Your" water

Confusion keeps emerging every day, every moment, in any form, and takes any part of your soul. Doubts engulf my feelings whenever a strong, really strong opinion is presented. Strong opinions are overwhelming. Some can be really loathsome. I should have had the sense to fend it off, brush is away like any annoying little flies. Like the wise man has said, the opinion can be kept forever, and you sometimes do not need even bother to prove it wrong~

However, consider it a tragedy when a self-manifesting glory is so debased, insulted and tramped upon. Even an overtly brutal generalisation can have an impact. WE ARE...how can "we" be generalised into an "are"? Everyone, every single one of us in this water is unique! It is such a debasing of all of our's intelligence and hardwork to label us "we"! Some are different from others, and within the some, a smaller "some" are different from others. We do have a common characteristic, and that is the very fact that we embrace life with all of our vigour, are proud of ourselves for the right reasons, and content in our own ways. That common trait makes us "us". Period.

I know the awful phenomenon does occur, and I know that something is in its imperfect state and that there is nothing we can do about it, but I do believe that such imperfection should not be aggrandised, overstated, and abused to an extent that the only blemish blocks everything else.

The pessimistic one should know that our world, through your very eyes, is twisted by your very vision since YOU ARE NOT IN IT. The one kept outside the orchard will always hold prejudice against the fruit INSIDE, and the one who has grown up loathing a certain system will end up cursing that specific system till the end of one's life. I permit such strong opinion to exist, but I neither tolerate nor accept it.

Living a fulfilling life is not about choice, only. It is about preferences! I can choose either, but I PREFER this. If much is not realised as much is given, that is my crime; but if much expected is not achieved as far as you are concerned, do you really think that counts?

Choosing something entails incurring an opportunity cost, but this does not mean that you are doing a losing business. Consider marginal benefit, not absolute loss! If there are so many people fighting their lives for the privelege of having to incur that opportunity cost, you cannot possibly say that it is a formidable cost, or a doom~

Reciprocation is not always desired. Our minds are not always heard, but we do not need them to always be searched, either. Some day, one day, I will share my query with a trustable friend, who belongs to part of the prophecy of the doomsayer, and who is smarter than me in flushing off that pessimistic thought.

We are the marvellous fish species swimming in this dynamic sea. We are lovin' it. Seriously, people are created different. You can keep your own set of values, why can't we?

Moreover, since you have known our choice all along, why don't you want us to prove you wrong, for once? Is it due to proudness? Come-on! My self-fulfilling prophecy works better than yours~
