People won't learn from mistakes

Boy risks life to save drowning girls. So the online news said. Irony but it's true. This article was celebrating the 12-year-old hero who went to save two drowning kids aged 5 and 4. The photo even shows the smiling faces of the kids and an adult. Wait. Before you get too absorbed at this hippy yippy thing, take a moment, and ask yourself: why in the first place the kids were drown in the river? Aged 5 and 4. Aren't any adults supposed to supervise these kids. They got it well this time, cause they met this guy. Well, we have a reason to celebrate now but what if...what if that guy who tried to save the kids was drown in that event as well? Would that change the whole headlines all together?

People never learn. Not till this story was reported in the news. How could we encourage this things to happen when it's an obvious human error/carelessness? It's portraying as if we got "2 miracle kids and a hero boy" and all that's the reason to celebrate. People who read this piece of article would definitely misguided. There's actually a lesson to learn behind this. No, not being brave. But we as an adult should play our part to keep the safety of our children away from dangers. Time and time again I went for talks, I stressed it out to people, the kids are not a burden or an item, they are our responsibilities. They don't choose to be born to this world. You brought them here. So stop smiling after looking at the kids were saved and then forget bout the whole event until the next "real" drown occur somewhere else.

People just don't learn their mistakes. I felt embarrassed when telling this to the mothers and fathers, but again it's a desperate plea. I don't know how much this will change the society's attitude but I am trying. I don't know if I was doing the right thing but it seems like people are just not interested and dunno. Trust me, I see more than many people. Life can be salvaged if you gave it a chance. I am not trying to impose any thoughts or believe in others because I myself is confused coz I just realized that something I believed all the while was actually a tale imposed by the aunty selling fish in the market. She's making up crap stories! And people started believing it and imposing them to others. What a messed up life huh? Why are we human not able to differentiate what's right and what's not? Yea, you are rite. We are just normal ordinary human. But is that an excuse good enough to prevent us to live a better life? To create a safer and better living environment for the kids and the people?

Like the theory of the sandals that I created before, the sandals can't function if the stripes were torn. It needs more people participation to make things right. This afternoon I specially arranged a talk for the fellow colleagues so we could learn something from the expert as to manage the work better. Letters were sent out. Expert was so prepared but the time came, none of the colleagues from other institution turned up. Isn't that a total let down? When things turned ugly, people would just accuse of each other but indeed, they were given the chance to standardized the system but people were just not interested.

Okla. You might start thinking, chill... take a deep breath, things will be ok. I know that. A cuppa milo since morning lasting till after office hours gets you crappy at times. And yes, I was a lil crappy, ahahahaha... the assistant who were actually fasting got so stressed out. Poor lady. Oh yea, we are having a poster competition this week. Public will start voting. Will try to post some pics later.
