Lastly, staying the same is good don't you find? Don't wish for anything and don't expect anything. 'Cause it might turn up to be disappointing. The best you have right now... is now. Never say this is the best moment in my life. There are better to come, right? Never say this is the worst day ever. There could be worse. So why set a limit on what's good and bad? Stay neutral. Stay at pH 7! *haha* So let fate flows~
One of the worst schooling years I've experience was during primary school years. I never dared to be high in spirits. Anytime, something would just go wrong.
The best representative scenario would be forgetting to do homework and ultimately keeping quiet to avoid scolding from teachers. Actually, it was all to do with my memory and attentiveness during my younger days. But the main thing that bothered me was the sharp drop of mood I had to experience. That potentially wrecked my day. As more of such incident happen, the more I became cautious. The more I became guarded, the more neutral I turned into.
That's background information, but the thing is I asked myself the question.
What's life all about?
Life should be happy, fun and vibrant! Like those scenes you always see in condominium advertisement where everyone have a smile on faces. I don't know, but I think I'm influenced by those corporate messages.
Okay, purging those propagandised messages off my mind, my definition is left with hope, anticipation, expectations and seeing them getting fulfilled. Hope is a powerful thing, especially when it's got to do with survival. You could be lost deep inside the jungle, but having the hope that you can get out or rescued by someone, you'll probably last longer there. But there can be none of the above by being neutral, 'cause it's simply going with the flow.
Imagine a neutral person got taken out of a situation, what changed? Nothing, because if you would see it my way (sort of mathematical manner), x+0 still equates to x. Yup, pretty hard to understand my point of view. I was trying to say that a neutral person wouldn't make a difference at all, and effectively isn't involved in the situation.
Sometimes I feel that by being too neutral, I've be well dead. There's no life in being neutral if I think carefully. So after much refinement, life is about not staying neutral and about taking sides.
Perhaps, in the end it still lies in personal preference. Sometimes the fence looks so comfy to sit on. Oh well, it's another neutral-stance post with no answers. Just like writing an argumentative essay, there's something you want to say, but in the end you balance it off with a "yeah... the other story is also quite true..." paragraph.
Yeah... neutral people does make some difference. They listen to what you wanna say and reply you a neutral answer, it's like x*0 gives you 0. Quite true, quite true... Haha.
Life inside the music box ain't easy... and everyone inside the mechanism is yearning to get out... and 'NUFFsaid.
