  • Power and Determination

    Power and determination are not compatible together in the real world.

    As long as an individual has power then he or she could do whatever he or she wants. I disagree with this statement. Having power does not mean an individual can do whatever he or she wants. In the real world, we are living in the human society. Some people are naturally born to become a leader having lots of influences in the society because of networks. These networks are not built in an instant. It requires certain amount of the time to build up; in which it requires several decade and generational efforts to accumulate these foundations. Being able to connect with someone who is influential, is getting the influence on that person’s power. And this would require an individual to invest specific amount of the time to connect with the powerful people. The individual could not be truly autonomous. This is because he or she needs to become the version of the self being able to fit into the powerful people’s perfection as a means of being fit in.

    Being able to connect with the powerful people, or becoming the powerful person. There is a possibility, not requires competences. Being able to fit in the powerful community or the person’s vision, is the concept of being assimilate into the community. The powerful people has the right to define the standard culture.

    Therefore, desire being a powerful power, or getting to become powerful person to connect with the powerful individual. It is not equal to self-determination.

    Determination, is an individual could truly manifest oneself, without regarding what the others’ preconceived notion of the perfection. This is more likely to be the role of artist. Albeit this will enrich an individual intellectual freedom, this also is part of suffering cause the general public culture won’t appreciate. This act of deliberation could potentially challenge the standard culture, that would facilitate a new wave of innovation such as counter culture, awakening innate human soul, stretching the boundary of humanity.

  • The remoteness and infinite thinkings

    Standing on the sand, I vividly thought about the past and dream. What would you like to dream tonight? This is a question that I would constantly doubt on my mind, in order to expand my imagination, imaging the things are missing. Am I a surreal writer? Maybe not, because I am not a person affiliated the concept of label. Label is unsophisticated, time would change everything therefore label could not maintain its consistency to define an individual singularity.

    Breathing the sea salt water, hearing the ocean sea wave, witnessing the people indolently walked on the sand, touching the scatter wind under the velvet blue sky, the sun was shining on my brown skin.

    I now have an idea for a new writing prompt that my mind has been preparing the plots. I need to use action to make things happen. Actions speak louder than words. I need to concern how to use writing to humanise the spirit of image, maybe providing more details that would make the scene to make more real.

    I also need to expand my imagination on reading different books.

    I have ordered a new literature written by a Malaysian author. I also know which book I should read next, Andrea Hirata’s The Rainbow Troops.

  • The Restart-up Writer

    I have decided to restart a new blog site, paying 60 Canadian dollar, launching the unknown website. It was Benjamin Franklin documentary movie has inspired me to become a writer again.

    I have been constantly pushing myself to read books; participate in business activities. Then, I gradually forget about writing. I therefore decide to pay 60 Canadian dollar as a means of reminding I need to write more in order to organize my thought clearly. And this, I can feel proud I use 60 Canadian dollar to buy cheeseburgeres.com

    I used to have a blog website. This was few years when I was a student in the postgraduate program in London. I had a lot of fun with it. Then, suddenly the blog writing activity has disappear in my life. Perhaps, I could not focus on writing due to covid and identity crisis. Needless to say, it is easier for an individual to have pretext not to bear a responsibility that he or she suppose to comprise in his or her life goal.

    What does it mean to become a restart-up writer?

    Becoming a restart-up writer is the same as to create another start up company from 0-1. Start up companies has more potential to fail. It is the same as immature writers could not maintain the consistency to write, then the spirit of writing gradually fade away from his or her life. At least, the disciplinary mind-set will still remember the concept of consistency, then an individual could become a restart-up writer.

    There are people might ask me what I would like to write?

    The laziest reply that I would say, I do not know. It is perfectly to be lazy. This is because the most difficult jobs should give the laziest people to do, that they could find the easiest way to achieve the project; that individual must have a sexy brain. Writing is an act of reflection, is impossible to use definite intellectual reason to force the ideas out. It needs to follow the flow of reflection as a means of impressing the white page, deflecting the sensational words, impressing the readers, letting them to decide whether they would give a fuck or not.

    Of course, the act of reading is the foundation of everything. Absorbing the mass sentences and the sound of words, constitute the wildest imagination. It feels like the first bite of Cheeseburger while listening Beethoven’s symphony.

    When I write every single English word, is the message, reminding me to first time I realise my first favor homework to which is English essay. Albeit it is suck to work in China lacking a differences, I will still make my way to the place where I can read and write all the time.

    The elder I get, the more I realise I need to write more.
