Stay away from people if you can. They're bad news. Along with the love and friendship and happiness, they give you loads of viruses and bacteria and make you sick as well. Not to mention the stress and pressure they give you with their demands for attention, and the cleaning up after them.
The Aztecs lost their civilization to the Spanish conquistadors not because the Spaniards had greater fire-power or superior fighting skills. Those Aztec people were some of the best guerrilla fighters the world had ever known. After some heavy losses the Spaniards almost gave up. But the Aztecs eventually got wiped off the face of the earth because some among the Spaniards came in peace and love and religion. They brought the flu and other viruses too.
My ex-boss Bill used to stay out at sea for months on end through rain and shine and rough weather and never had a day of sickness. But within a week of coming ashore and after the hugs and kisses of friends and relatives he had to get a doctor's prescription.
Civilization. Makes one wonder if it's worth it at all. Anyway, anyone got a choice?

ReplyDeletewash your hands, wash your hands - a hundrad times per day! Pop your vits and what nots. Hmm...I'd rather stay away from people because of their politics & BS!!! Yeah those poor Aztecs....I read up so much on them when I was younger..and those Mayans too :)
ReplyDeleteI love people! Whatever color, shape, size, smell, velocity and volume. Whatever the packaging, whatever the label, whatever the defect. I want to go out there and hang my heart on my sleeve, get trainwrecked by love and loss and betrayal. I would rather get quarantined than never know what a kiss feels like. Virus is a small price to pay. Even death. The Aztecs wouldn't have it any other way and neither would I.
ReplyDeleteI realized my comment is a dead smack slap on the face of my revered Aids activist friend and many more comrade in arms who have worked tirelessly to fight against the disease. Pardon my juvenile outburst and I hope you know what I mean and do not mean. One World One Life. You Me Us.
ReplyDeleteMy friends (...and relatives). Don't anybody get overly concerned or offended by this blog entry, nor limit yourself to making only 'safe' comments. Just shoot. It's just my tongue-in-cheek (bordering on cynical) point-of-view of our paradoxical human existence. "Hate them because we love them, can't live with them - yet impossible to live without them...."
ReplyDeleteMr. Teh, how do you find time to write? Gosh, I really envy you.
ReplyDeletessshh...if management finds out i do this during working hrs, it'll be premature retirement....haha
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I jot down my ideas on scraps of paper whenever I have any, otherwise it's almost always a blank screen and a blank mind staring at each other...
I dont even have time at home! yeah, that always happen to me when I try to write blogs.
ReplyDeleteyou're not alone. I often go for weeks with nothing on my mind to write about. That's when I get trigger-happy with a camera. Or I'd go stare at my drawing block. Just for something to keep my mind working (afraid it'll get rusty) Or if I get an idea and no note pad around, I'd even key it into handphone's SMS and save it there.
