Courage

Courage is...
When doubts are all around, and say I'll still have faith.

Courage is...
Staring at defeat in the eye, and say I'll survive.

Courage is...
Not being afraid, when losing seems like the only option.

Courage is...
Saying, "If I survive I'll live, if not I'll just die... it's that simple"

Courage is...
Being able to say that I have just lost the biggest battle in life, but that all right,
I will live to fight another day...

Freedom vs Well Fed

Tiger in the Wild
vs Tiger in the Zoo.

"It's so unfair, why must they have a quota system" says Jeremy."Are we not just as deserving?After all we fulfill all the other criteria, just that we are not mmmmm"

This happened about a year and a half ago...
that was when I came up with to this explanation to my love ones.

Imagine a tiger in the zoo...
Well fed... No need to hunt...
Well taken care of... No worries...
All that seem well may NOT be all well...

It becomes dependent...
It loses its predatory instinct... unable to hunt...
It grows complacent... unable to compete...

Worse still ... it is caged...
It loses it's FREEDOM!!!

That is how I see it...
Don't be bitter, just because they are given all the privileges...
Do feel pity for them, for they have became like animals kept in cages in a zoo.

For us man, apart from food and shelter...
it is the FREEDOM to think...
it is the FREEDOM to profess our faith...
that separates us from being just a human being(a biological entity) to being a civilised man.

Even God has given us the FREEDOM to choose whether to believe in Him...

To enjoy these "privileges", our friends have to give up this FREEDOM!
What a pity... What a pity...
In getting what seems to be their "rightful" benefits
they would have to give up their rights to choose to believe in whatever they feel is RIGHT!

So next time, think of them as being the victims...
They did not make us less... but make us MORE...

We have inadvertently became better,
more diligent, more competitive,
more capable, more resilient,
We have became stronger...
in spite of the disadvantages being heap on us.

Reach out to them, our friends...
many do not know that they have been victimised...by their political feudal masters...
LOVE them... as GOD has love them...

I LOVE my friends..., do you?
