lol... well up to you, to each his own. Personally i feel that freedom of thought is something that most people do not even have an opportunity at. People to a certain extent are blinded by all that goes on around them. The existence that they live is confined by their needs and urges. I personally would like to use our present day lives as an example. We are all living a lifestyle that is above average. We all get to enjoy good lives, crime rate is low, we are all fed and clothed. These circumstances all tend to a certain extent confine us or define us. We do not have the exposure hence resulting in us lacking the depth of thought to fully carry out our ideas. We become limited not just by our minds but by the lives we lead due to the environment we live in. To an even greater extent our mind chooses to close off that which we do not wish to hear. Thoughts that show us the true nature of the lives that we lead, an illusion of perfection, are shut out to prevent us from breaking this illusion. Thus we are again confined and this time we place the confinement upon ourselves. Do we dare to think beyond that which surrounds us? Reality is something that has to be lived to be fully understood, to explores all areas of life not this top 5% that almost everybody in our class mixes with. What about the other 95%, the people that truely make up singapore? what is their life like? Have you bothered to go look and check it out?Personally i know that i have barely managed to scratch the surface off this problem. But at least i admit to living a life that is unreal.
