It was nice. I forgot how nice it is to hang around during the weekday... There was a time that I did that everyday for about 6 months... Oh the days of unemployment.... Other than not having too much cash, those were truly the days to really enjoy. But here are somethings that I wonder about. I saw many people hanging out that were not students. Couples that were enjoying the day. People frolicking about having a grand old time... What the hell do they for a living? Its like when I was working at the mall. Here they were just going nuts at the mall and I always wondered "don't these people have jobs?"
Whatever these people do for a living that requires them to enjoy their life, I say "Sign me up!"
Than again.... What a whiner I can be....
Isn't it so sadistic that life can be just so difficult. Living life is one of the hardest jobs in the world. I was watching this thing on TV last night... It was a World Vision sponsored program. Julian, Lisa and I were watching this sponsored program on channel 18.
Julian works for World Vision. It was colored footages of Korea 50 some odds years ago....
Though I knew how tough it was for our parents generation, seeing these footages and seeing the sheer poverty that our parents generation faced, I was just so ashamed.... Yeah....
How dare I whine! You should have seen the footages. It was like seeing African footages now. I was so extremely thankful to my parents generation and the generation before.
So I had no idea that World Vision was started by a humanitarian pioneer Bob Pierce on September 22, 1950, in response to the needs of Korean War orphans. (that is him on top holding a Korean baby)
War causes awful things. The MOST terrifying things.... And yet here we are, at another war.
