人不忘，我自忘；

人不忘，我自忘；
忘卻世間兮許惱，
換過白雲月蓋日。

夢裏心，望夜空；
空見塵世需真苦，
化作勁塵風遇擺。

苦麻花，艷茶花；
朵開盛宴耐人詢，
秋風落盡默歸土。

木已成空，同為戲水，
虛夜獨斷，寒江孤曲。

-木斷映空

Life without 'I'

Life without 'I', What is a life that many crave for?

By today's standard, money is almost everything, one must learn how to play the game of stocks, least he/she needs to understand the basic economic fundamentals to be able to survive... well, least you have to know how to manage your earnings, that is, if you have extras left...

What had happen to the old days? Where family value is on top of everything else, all others are just a thing attach to it. Possibly the movie 'Pleasantville' show the best, that those old days are long gone...

Human civilization migrated from barbarian to agricultural, then to industrial, and up to now, the information technology; are the societies really evolve to the better or slide down to the dooms?

Environmentalist work so hard to let us know the issue of global warming, thus ex-vp Gore found a new stage and shines pretty much better than his political life; Whole Foods market sell high end 'organic' produce for the mass, aside with little chunk of profit; Susan G. Komen foundation turn everything into pink nowadays,
while Armstrong work hard to turn the other side yellow...

Nothing is wrong with those, yet more of these phenomenons only prove that human being are keep loosing itself from its purpose of life, loosing its original souls actually...

What we need is a clean state of mind, minus all the learning we were forced to learn since youth... maybe the happiest time of life is when we were young, or start to learning about things surrounding us; once we cross that line, well, yeah, life is full of surprises; and sure each individual's surprises aren't the same...

Couple years ago, near half of the top executives are flown into Eastern art of yoga, taichi, Zen, etc. Claim it helps to refocus their minds and regain energies lost in daily tasks...

East meets West, actually, West is more wealthier, and East is on average the poor side of the balance beam... So, what's going on? Is that a limit of wealth? or it's better to stay poor? Or wealthy life has some attachments, and poor, is just simple poor?

We all know it's better not to argue w/ S.F. homeless, or anyone poor... who knows what he/she might do to you, your life is more valuable in comparison, right? Well, I guess, but they are more 'free' in every other way... Can you do that??

Our education taught us to be useful to the society, thus they train us that way; money buy stuffs, we want stuffs, thus we work for money, cause we can't steal; steal is bad, can put you in dark little room with orange suit... Yet all things surround us also teach us to spend, spend on things we mostly don't need; by that way, certain top 3% of the population can enjoy the wealthy life that MTV often show... So, what has that needs to do with education?? Don't think many top Ivy league individuals are in that top 3%, are they??

Collectivism societies are without 'I', thus there really is no I in any form you search in... Individualist societies are all about 'I', thus many 'I' on the block, and top 'I' are in those 3%....

Therefore, do we need to be in that top 'I'? It looks nice though... Sure it would be nice...

Ay, for most of us, it's life without 'I'... just face it... back to the worker ant category... learn less, more happier; trust me... No 'I' is better, and less cyber is even good for your health, mental or physical...

Therefore, why are you still here??? You must be bored, I know, me too...
