NON-LAZY day !

!!!! I've washed the toilet, hand-washed my clothes, packed my table despite waking up at 1230. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

My mom agreed with me that as the generation gets younger, the people become even more weak. What's becoming of these supposedly young and zealous people? Young people like us, always dream but how many of us actually strive to realise them? If this is going to turn to a trend, then I will really think that human's increasing life expectancy( I wrote about this during O lvls!) is a blessing. At the very least, the more mature group of people are standing a chance to influence the naive daydreamers before the latter devastate the beautiful home that the forefathers had painstakingly built on.

Life is progressing very much towards perfection. Of course, the stage will never be attained because human desires are never diminishing.The only change in desire against the time of progression I guess, will be the decrease in the basicity of their needs.

Just like the Maslow's Hierachy of needs- the more primitive needs at the bottom of the pyramid such as physiological needs while self-actualisation at the top. Unfortunately, when people has met the more primitive needs, they do not feel anything. They will only be motivated when driven to deprivation.As for self-actualisation, we don't have many people practising that.

Some people are already taking the first step to self-actualising, by dreaming, then aiming.

And then due to some distractors, the plan got called off. Where is the determination to stay focused?

If you come to think of it, isn't it ridiculous to give up on a project just because of some obstacles? I'm talking about people whom are already considering it, not those insincere people. Then it's time for the people to question themselves on how much desire do they have within.

Take something that is more related to my life for instance, the upcoming campcraft competition. I have juniors who are absenting themselves from trainings because their parents disapprove of them. Very obviously, the parents' disapproval is only a smokescreen of their disinterest in the competition. If you are really serious about something, will you not fight for it? Don't tell me that you are just being obedient and fillial. So if your parents are against your relationship with this someone from the opposite gender for some reason that you can't accept, will you just stay away from the person? If yes, I've really gt nothing to say.

There are people complaining that the trainings are eating into their holidays. EAT INTO . So what exactly should be considered as an ideal holiday? free from committments? only doing things that you like? or just rotting away? You mean your life is soooooo long to have so many holidays meh? continue doing the things that you LIKE only...see how far and fast can you achieve something.

And I don't understand why are they so narrow-minded.Why can't you experience the process wholeheartedly before you judge for yourself if this is your kinda thing? We have people coming for trainings as and when they like.

The outsiders stereotyped campcraft as knots as lashings. That, I don't bother to argue. Yet as for people who had attended some of the trainings, already have the same mindset as the outsiders, still refusing to accept any additional inputs to their mentality.

Note that I've refrained from referring the people as the campcraft team. It is because I'm not mentioning about any particular person (s). Not that specific as to REALLY think about who is in the team.

You know sometimes, the degree of meaningfulness behind some things depend on the individual.It is just being plain dumb to expect people to always explain the meaning so explicitly. Furthermore, what seems meaningful to others may not be to you and vice versa.

That explains my point above which I've mentioned that I don't bother explaining how much I think otherwise about the competition to outsiders because they are not the ones experiencing it. They will not be able to see as much as those who are in the field.
