Coming out of Closets and Sweetie, the Kid

http://www.upworthy.com/a-4-year-old-girl-asked-a-lesbian-if-shes-a-boy-she-responded-the-awesomest-way-possible?c=fea

Please watch this video.
I agree that a closet is no place
for anyone or any living being for that matter,
to live in.

Be upfront with people and yourself.
Do not always be in the fight or flight mode.
Just be yourself and let people accept you as you are.
Do not say sorry for telling the truth.
Do not regret for what you are not.
Everyone, after all, has a place in life.

This other video tells of pedophiles and Artificial Intelligence.
How does one trap the many thousands,
hundreds of thousands of predators
victimizing vulnerable children through the Internet?
This is how.

Do people fail to understand that
those are real children
who are supposed to be living care freely
that they're soliciting and demanding for extra somethings?
Do people view online child pornography
as something virtual and unreal
like how they do to online contracts
(E.g. freely accepting Instagram's claim on user's rights)
and thus have no guilt in actually condoning the act?

It is not right to deprive kids of their childhood,
to deprive them of their rights to lead a normal life,
to understand relationships and different types of emotions.

Who is behind all of this?
Poor children in countries that lack basic amenities
just do not have the luxury
to obtain a webcam and go online to expose themselves
to the kind of danger mentioned above
all by themselves.

Now, this is yet another question to ponder.

A hermit's life and not-so-hermit thought.

Living the life of a momentary hermit.

Asked people if they thought that
me wasting time doing nothing whilst
refusing to go out and mingle around
was annoying, and they said:
Yep.  C:
Thank you for being so honest with me.
I am happy that they said yes.
Because I was irked by my attitude too.
Hah.

How can one be so lazy to even get decent food?
Instead of sitting around to stare at the empty shelves.
Feeling sad after rummaging through
the fridge full of food that is not mine.
I then resorted to cereal and instant noodles and
the weird flaky tasting White Wings biscuit.
No defamation intended here.

I would consider this the normal exam period post.
I have even analysed why pimples have appeared on my face.
It could be because of my unchanged pillowcase.
Worse still, it could be because of my sleeping patterns.
Hormonal imbalance disrupting my very self?!
Or is the culprit the bag of almonds I have been chomping on?

Have a good weekend, peeps.
I'll be more disciplined from now on.
It is the battle against my mind that I will win.
Heh.

P.s.: To justify why I didn't go out,
The sky was cloudy and I was expecting it to rain.
Which it conveniently did, a few hours later.
Not really, it was because there were
a bunch of loud people outside and I wanted to avoid them
so I stayed home.
Convinced?
... Not really.

I hope that the people of Philippines pull through
Typhoon Haiyan and somehow survive the wreckage
that is now plaguing the land so close to home.
Are natural disasters really caused by natural factors?
Did us humans contribute to it?
Did everyone contribute to all of the disasters so far?
The typhoons, earthquakes, tsunamis, storms.
Perhaps so.
Perhaps my usage of the laptop to blog has caused
trees to be chopped down in provision of energy
(though some may say that people just do not chop trees downfor that particular reason anymore)
for it to function
and the empty spot where the trees once were
enabled the gust of wind to spurn violently
and comfortably into a large sized typhoon?

Just a thought.

Deceiving Trust

It is wrong to naively assume
that people from a certain group
can be trusted because of certain reasons.

It is dangerous to be overtly positive
and create gullible assumptions towards
things that you have not come across.

It is entirely silly to be clouded
by a castle of false illusions
that blind your senses thoroughly.

It is sad to not be able to be brave
and source out alternatives to the situation
by recognizing points of help.

It is utterly disappointing when
heads are turned away and lips are clasped firmly
when courage is mustered to do its job.

It is not too late to identify
the facade of trust that has been carefully painted
and rely on one's independence a little more.

It is insightful experiences and proper education
that bring about wisdom in handling matters
which are considered a taboo in certain societies.

Just saying. ~0~

Paranoia

Today's Maal Hijrah.
The start of a new Islamic calendar.
Every religion has its own calendar.
Every believer makes his/her own resolutions.

Today was also the Melbourne Cup day.
Though I do not know what it is about.
Except that it may have something to do with horses.
Even though ignorance was not enough for me to turn a deaf ear on things.

Today, I did not check the statistics of visitors to this blog.
This is because I have a nagging feeling
that Australian websites are linked to too many data collecting companies
that deploy cookies to collect data about me for commercial usages.
I wonder if the statistics actually reflect the number of people
whom are actually interested in what I have to say.

Are you actually reading my blog
For the purpose of understanding my thoughts?
Or are you reading it
Just to know what's going on in my life?
Are you double-checking my background
To re-confirm what sort of a person I am?

This twisted world.
Oh complicated people.
My unyielding defiance.
