- 'What would you do' reminds me of my witness in China Well, my friends, how're u doing? 3 days ago, I stumbled upon a videoclip on a local video-sharing website which turned out to be the American TV programme------- 'What would you do' ------presented by ABC News. Since then, I found myself was much immersed in watching one episode after another, for the simple reason that you can find almost alike social problems in China ,which interests me, ranges from what if someone slips down or sexual harassment in public places, to parenting etc,. Unfortunately, unlike what I saw in the video, people soothed the victim by hugging him/her or giving some verbal encouragement, albeit they didn't know each other at all, Chinese people probably will never hug a stranger or even feel embarrassed to have any sort of eye-contact. The reason, perpaps Oriental people are more of an introverted kind. So this could be part of the reason when we saw someone is in trouble in public , we don't want to be embarrassed and so we moved away. Characteristic is one matter, but immorality is a different story. Let me share with you this type of real News coverage in China if you think ther're 'new' to you: A senile citizen fell down without anyone else witnessed except one compassionate passer-by, who took the injured to the hospital, and later when the relatives of the senile came, instead of expressing gratitude, they alleged it was the passer-by who knocked the senile down, the excuse is ' if you are not the one, then why did you take him/her to the hospital? you did this for just a feeling of guilty." The court ruled that the man to foot the medical bill. The readers outside China might have been pissed off, but I dare to say if you ever ask your Chinese friend around you 'will you lend a hand to someone who slips down on the ground in public?' 9 out of 10 they will tell you that if it's an aged guy, they won't, for the fear of what might happen just as those previous examples. I know it is wrong, but I am too feeble to challenge the mainstream.
June 20, 201320 - the internet will isolate us from one another To me, internet is the most brilliant invention that human being has ever made and it can be found almost every sectors in our daily life, ranging from online banking systems, online entertaining activities to remote education systems. But It does have one Achilles' heel: it alienates us from each other. It turns out that we are not aware of spending more time on internet friends than real-life ones since we've been 'addicting' to this cyber-life to some extent. We may tend to turn to the friends on QQ for help when necessary instead of our family members even though they are just strangers to us. Distance generates the sense of feeling safe, and that's my comprehension of such phenomena. My view is that it shouldn't go this way any further. I suggest that we live a unplugged life on weekends, which will turn the alienation into precious quality time with our beloved real-life family and friends as well.
May 13, 201333 - My understanding of the meaning of life Life is short. With the development of cutting-edge medical science, for sure that our average lifespan will be extended for 10-20 years. Many diseases like cancers which deemed incurable in the past will become curable; AIDS, might remain a thrilling killer, but its bloodshedding paws have been drastically curbed since the introduction of 'Drug Cocktail Theraphy',sufferers are supposed to live longer by 20 to 50 years than they were. Even though, life is still short and we are immortal. One night, when I was on my way home after a busy working day on a subway, I started to think: What am I doing here? What's the meaning of life? At that time, I was just looking around to see what other passengers were doing, some were napping, some were fiddling around their phones, and others were idle and doing nothing. Well, I have to admit, I have been doing this circle for 4 years: get up-way to workplace-work-way to home-sleep-get up....What a bottomless pit! Yes,you may say you need money to live, well, I admit it, partially. But was that all about life? Making money and aging, then you ascend to the glory, that's all? Perhaps we have been blinded by this financial world, and time can't be brought back, I think I am not making money, but selling my time while time is much more precious than money! All I want is to travel as many countries as I can, meeting friends from home and abroad, sing the local song, taste the local food,writing my themed book based on what I saw and experienced. A sudden voice from the subway anncouncer pulled me back to the reality: It's 21:35, and you are not in a foreign scenic spot but in a city. Where's the end of it? I know life is tough and the saying 'big fish eats small fish' or' fast fish eats sluggish fish', but what if I don't want to be a fish, I just want to be a human being, experiencing my own life and feel no regrets on my deathbeds and that's it. Thanks for reading. Any comments are welcomed! Have a nice day! Please let me know what do you think of my thoughts..
