Generation today...
I just read an article and this is really amazing and it is true, what happen to the world today?
Suicide is a worldwide issue, and in Asian region it takes place in rank top number 2, in a form of death among the Asian's young and old. And we can see situation, circumstances, people surrounding us they are just normal human being just like me and you need to face many things. And many of them wants/likes to follow the 'out shining' ones, but do they think before who they are actually, they are the same as us normal human beings, why not we follow the person who have greater impact and will change our lives become better and gives us a better future. The person who shows love, peace and joy to everything they do instead of the person who influence you become another person which is the negative ones.For example: The smart students always influence the person besides them to be more hardworking, and will help their friends who need help instead of a student who likes to boast and show off infront their friends with what they have or another type of people, when they need u they find u, when they don need u or they have found someone better they kick u a side.....
The example below is from a part of the articles,
For example, in 2008 there were a series of celebrity suicides in South Korea between October and December that led to many “copy cat” suicides from the fans of the celebrities who chose to take their lives as well. This kind of suicide effect does not just happen in Korea, but similar cases all over Asia. It is not a surprise that when a celebrity commits suicide, that the young fans will do the same, because celebrities have influence on the youth. What is the cause? Personally, I believe there are three main root issues that many celebrities and young people have to deal with…
- Performance ~ in Asian culture there is a high premium put on our performance. If we do not perform well, we will be judged and rejected. This is true for celebrities especially who are always being seen in the limelight. A celebrities every action and move is being watched and if they fail, they are judged harshly. This is also true for young people who feel they have to perform well for their parents in school, or for others in society to accept them. The underlying issue, people are not loved outside of their performance and their identity is equated to how well they can perform in life. Outside of their performance they are worth nothing.
- Pressure ~ in Asian culture there is also great pressure to meet the expectations of others. People constantly give us pressure to do more, to be a certain way or be something we are not. We are given pressure to look a certain way, act a certain way, we are compared to others and when we don’t measure up to the pressure, we break down into bouts of discouragement, depression, feelings of shame and even suicide. Celebrities and youth deal with societal pressure, peer pressure all the time.
- Pain ~ in Asian culture it is not okay to tell people how you really feel at times. We hid our feelings, instead of expressing them to others to find comfort and solace. When we don’t feel understood, listened to, or cared for pain begins to be felt in our hearts and slowly destroys us on the inside. We begin to feel that people only love us for our performance, for what we can produce, for what we can do but not for who we are. (This is especially true for celebrities who are so loved and celebrated on the stage, but may feel so lonely and misunderstood in real life.) We become afraid of what other people think, because we don’t want to show weakness, so we hide our pain, keep it to ourselves until one day we cannot bear with the pain anymore… suicide then becomes an option.
I urge us as a society and people to give more grace to those who face these struggles with performance, pressure and pain. We especially need to give grace, mercy and forgiveness to those people in the limelight. Whether they are celebrities, government leaders or young people who are battling with depression and shame, all people deserve to be loved for who they are, not how perfect they can be.

11/12
I heard a news from 1 of my friend said tat her friend who was married and have kids and she still can flirting around with guys without tell them she already married. She even asked her friend to keep secret that dont tell any1 she was married.
Another 1 more, she was married with 2 kids. Within 2 years she divorced... She left her 2 kids to her husband...
And now, 1 of my friend keep on boast in front of us, i dunno y, is just a guy like her and started sms her.. than i dunno why she like to boast in front of us lo and keep on lcly... and she boast in front of 1 of her close friend... purposely act that the guy very annoying this and that... make her cant sleep laa... don feel like wan layan the guy la this la that la... and say her friend u gt no ppl want to find u la... this la that la.. what laa all this.. what so nice to boast of actually...
Can a marriage reborn?
Can a promise kept?
How to discover an enduring love?
There is always an answer... but then how do people find it??
Keeping a marriage commitment is not easy in today's world. Statistics say that 50% of marriages end in divorce.
Good marriages don't automatically happen - they are intentionally built.
