yakking.

it is only when things are turning out for the worse, or when the end is very much in sight, would we start to regret on the things that we have done or should have done.

why do we not contemplate right at the beginning?

isit the at-the-moment impulse, or are we really that short-sighted.

some of us do things, that we know harm ourselves or the people around us that matters.

take drinking, smoking, or even the general phenomena of global pollution.

we know that its wrong, and detrimental, and yet we still do it.

the apathetic side in all of us are apparent to see.

some who are optimistic enough would maintain that values and principles still hold.

but on which or whose grounds that it rightfully remain so?

we disparage those who smoke, citing second hand smoke as harmful to the body.

but what about smoke continuously coming out of vehicles or factories, isnt it as bad too?

or, how about us yakking so much on the environment and the need to go green, but at the same time, we drool at the sight of a branded item on the shelf that has "new arrival" on it, even though we do not need it. the current home at home is left wasted, piling up dust.

the need for that instant gratification is very much apparent, implicit or explicit.

we do not care where it came from, or how it was made, so long as our slimy fingers can get a hold of it.

hypocrisy is wrong? ... yet we barely bat an eyelid when innocents die from a stray bullet in a desert civilisation, but when someone from our own nation who holds a high qualification gets to be the victim, the mourning went like there wasnt to be a tomorrow.

.
my mind is rather racing and pacing, and i know, whatever above seem barely coherent or comprehensible.

perhaps im irritated that i have to get out of my house again tonight.

to become a slave to the system for a few hours while everyone else gets to dream a lil something...
