i feel for u bro pero u have to go out there. iba talaga, people are only motivated by self-interests. the only time they try to help each other out is at times of crises. yun bang tulong-tulong daw.

pero if you can only hear what's whispering at the back of the heads, if i help the unfortunate ones, sana i will be spared from something like this happening to me. so ganun pa din. self-interest.


the way u think is how I think when i was younger. the same guys who thought of this before and invented communism, socialism etc. etc. all of these ideologies collapsed why? bec. our world is only motivated by self-interests. plain and simple truth.

let me give u an advice about life. life is not meant to be to get too attached. i.e. not to get too to attached material things, beliefs, ideologies, one universal truth that will help all of us.

same reason why life is always a question mark or dead-end when it comes to spiritual needs/inquiries.

the cold hard plain truth: it is designed that way. if people like noynoy, gibo, gordon and you and leftists, and idealists like to believe that there is a final solution to all of these. there is none. bec. if there is final solution then we will stop living or achieving.
