Updates: Part 2

Here goes...

September

Well, the second highlight of September is the controversy over a trip to Taiwan. Now that its over (more or less), with the carcasses been removed, the blood soaked into the dust, the walls are cleaned of brain tissue etc... I feel that I may have my say now.

Actually, the entire issue can be summed up with one word. 'I'. Yes... 'I'. Both sides have their own points of view, their problems lie with the fact that it is very difficult for them to accommodate the other side's point of view. Hence 'I'.

The same goes for me... I was lamenting that no one spattered a thought for me too. For example, why should I be shunted off to one side when I have been one of the originators of the plan? Why should I be so busy looking for deals, contacting people, collecting money etc? And at the end of it all, be shunted off to another group, as if I know one side better than the other? I felt betrayed... Belittled... Made use of... Angry... GGGrrrrR...

Sigh...Well, I guess I have made emergency plans... I can always elope with my 'gay' buddy K if anything goes wrong, hahaha!! Or better yet, watch the catfight from a corner ;)

Conclusion?

None at all... In psychology, we learn about self serving biaseness and how it serves to distort our world view around us. I am not so... Full of it that I can claim that I am free from it. The most I can do is that I know and I am aware of it and thus will try very hard not to let it shape my views and attitudes towards others.

I guess what this world needs more is a lot of tolerance... Perhaps love.... World Peace!! Hahaha!!! ;)
