My fav line “If we’re lucky we’ve got 80 years to live”.
80 years might seem bloody long, but when we’re dead, if there’s no heaven n hell, or rebirth or ghost or whatever not, 80 billion years of a dreamless sleep is bonkerz! Its so bizarre, in such a tinsy time on Earth, so much is done, learnt, experienced. The whole ‘god’ apparently gives a sense of direction to have some meaning in life? In the short span, we over spend analyzing, trying to earn money, trying to fit in instead of just living and experiencing and learning. We take things for granted, our family, friends, shopping, studying and look at them as a chore, asides from shopping. :D Most of us are born in this world with a decent life style. So we end up abusing it.
Nature vs Nuture. In childhood, life seemed so innocent, and the people around u, the things that happen, make u less n less naïve. Its bloodcurdling knowing that the path you take, the people u mix with, the environment u live in can determine whether ur the murderer or the murdered. Is the murderer guilty for just being and the wrong place at the wrong time in the wrong circumstances, since he/she was once a kid with the same naïve outlook on life;
It’s a long 80 years, and the older you are, the more you get why our folks call us a billion times from the bus stop to the MRT station 2 mins away. The world might be god’s greatest creation, but circumstances, environment and influence do create monsters out of us. It might sometimes be easier to be the murderer than the murdered, but its easier to shut the world off and live in a naïve world, taking what we have for granted..
