Man Made Terror

I fear the power of Man.

God has created the most intelligent being alive, and they were sent to live on Planet Earth. In that place, they learned how to survive and how to use the resources. They started civilisation, they started the bureaucracy, they started invention and they started destruction.

Man is a manipulative creature.

They can think of plots and strategies, just anything to destroy one or another. They loved to torture those who they think are inferior and they make sure the weaklings die without any pride. They now live to torture mentality. They describe how crazy a mind can go. How much they would kill so that they themselves survive? How much is their sin, so that they can achieve their very own satisfaction?

Man is oblivious.

They created religion, so everyone can follow in the footsteps of God, worshipping Him. They created different halls of shrines, so the devotees can pray for something that has always been a myth or a legend. Shamans going around with their little ghouls, apparitions can be seen. To me, ghost are never scary, it should be a natural sight even if its supernatural. But Man made it scary, adding all the unnecessary fear into us. In the end, we are afraid of the supernatual .

I hate the fact that Man are always trying out new things, either earning praises or scaring them away. They are challenging the mind of readers, viewers and the rest of the population. "Hannibal" is a movie that I swear I will not touch again, its contents is truly out of mind that it challenges my psychological thinking. It has succeed. But I threw away all the memories as fast as I can to prevent myself from thinking so much of the human mind. But it proves one thing: there are people out there who are like them. People who can charm and kill. Some even crazier. All of us are manipulators. We, the humans, love to make our own terror, so we satisfy and scare ourselves and others. We die of satisfaction.

I now fear the power of writing.It can hurt so many people. and make my day miserable. One who does not have a matured mind could not stand the job. But this is it. All of us have to accept the fact that this is part of what we do.

Shakespeare's quote " There's nothing good or bad, but thinking makes it so."

We are all terrorists.

Style Determination

Recently, the advetisments at a television channel is HIGHLY promoting the Street Style Awards, where it gives their rewards to those who had personalised something unique into a "style". It ranges from fashion to music, to every aspect of what has happen in our lives. Well, the Street Style Awards is going on at Zouk in Kuala Lumpur now. Now as the Awards are being given out, I'm here wondering, who determines style?

Style stereotypes people. There are a group who are "cool", who loves to be stylish, in a way that they follow the Western Culture, and wear really big shirts, pulled their pants down until their behinds are shown, wears a cap and simple, showed that typical "rock on!" sign when meeting their friends. On the other end of the world, people who idolises Japan would adapt to their culture. Japan has the knack of trying out new things, therefore, they have developed a few new fashion sense that does not make any sense. Some Japan fans would just blindly follow the trend, wearing mini skirts and really colourful long stockings at the same time, or perming curly hair to match with cute hairbands or really large earrings. They would also pamper themselves by colouring every fingernail with different kinds of colour. It scares the common folk a lot.

That is why I hate that certain criteria of style. Who determines that you look good or not anyway? The fashion designers who had to wreck their brains off every spring/summer/autumn/winter season? As long as you are not in a shabby state any clothes that suits you should be okay. But like what they say, resources are scarce, and people's wants are unlimited. They demand to look unique, that one-of-a-kind, or rather, they want to be in a certain dress clan, where they are accepted by the people who share the same fashion taste as them.

Personally, no one is disgusted by no one's style. Everyone have their right to express themselves through dressing. It's after they do so they tried to convince everyone their style is the best that irritates me. Who are you to say that your style is the best? Of course to those who are confident on their own style they wouldn't care much, but for those who are clueless of themselves, it seems a little sad to see them changing from one style to another, just to fit other's interest and not their own. Even if they didn't really accept some of the fashion sense they still wear it, because they wanted to be accepted by their own dress clan, who wouldn't felt so disgusted about what they wear.

Does style reflects your attitude? Maybe, but I've seen people who wear decently that behaves really bad, or people who wears very sexily, but actually has a very nice heart. So it depends on how we look at people. Appearance is only skin deep, and if we wanted to know more of the character, we have to interact with these stylish people more. But if they had made us sick at sight, we might take a longer time to accept him/her. But then again, never judge a book by its cover?

Still wondering about what determines the style. And who is getting the awards for being best-styled?

Sorry if this is a short post, I got distracted by other aspects.

Thanks and good day.
