Why am I here?
Sunday, July 13, 2008
Well.. Well... Well... Here I am. So what the heck? What am I doing in Singapore? I sit down and think of that now. Its been three years.. or should I say, three long years? Came here first in July 2006. Was new to the outside world at that time having spent most of my 23 years of existence within the confines and comfort of home in Chennai. A sweet doting mother, a strict yet lovable father and a cute li'l sister...
Left all that joy behind and now toiling hard in a foreign country. All this for what? For money? For luxury? For comfort? For power? For position? For career? I dont know. And I am sure I am not the only one thinking like this. Hundreds and thousands of youngsters venture out into the world unknown to them in quest of something they can never define.
The whole world has turned materialistic. Competition rules. Everything has a price. Sometimes even love has to pay. Sad thing thats happening to this once wonderful world! 'Love thy neighbour' has become a saying of the past. Only money speaks everywhere. Blood relatiosnships have become a thing that has meant to be severed. The whole world is going in a direction which nobody would have imagined some 300 years ago! So do you think you can answer my question? Why am I here?
