Apparently I write like an educator. It seems like the tone, the way I phrase things in my writings, are to teach, to inform to increase the knowledge of the reader. As if I'm explaining things to a toddler.

Then again,

What's wrong with that? Probably it has something to do with too much science-related work that I'm currently involved in, studying for. Like, phrasing of the answers have to be explicit. There's no way you can PRETEND that the examiner knows what you're talking about. Everything we're doing to not to improve our expression of our knowledge, but rather to fulfill the criteria of what the examiner wants of us.

And that's just life. As a student, at least.

Ironically, I don't want to step out to society just as soon as well. Its not like its better in the real world. Not to mention its bad enough in our small well.

The world does not tolerate people who are blunt, straightforward. I am that kind of person, when I want to pass the idea across past, and only beat around the bush when I'm kind of stuck or embarassed. So obviously, leaping out from the well would probably expose me to more elements and cause my death sooner. Which isn't what I'm really keen off.

Solution to that? Learn.

Learn to cover up your emotions, your words. Say only things to people that will benefit you. Say things to only people that will benefit you. I read of this passage in my general paper revision booklet that says "gossip" can be used as a tool. A tool to help you garner relationships with those that one considers desirable to form alliances for the benefit of self.

Hypocrites?

Clever suckers. They'll beat you in promotions and salaries.

Whilst everyone just wants to get up there, thinking that it'll be better with more $$$. We ought to realise one thing.

The higher/powerful you get, the less it takes to bring you down.

Before I dive straight into the example of day-to-day interactions of humans, lets just look at how things works in mother nature.

The biggest, most powerful living organisms on earth are notably the elephant and the whale. Massive in size, enormous power. Yet they are the ones facing the threat of extinction. Whilst an elephants natural defense seems impregnable to most animals, we all know a small mouse can kill it. What's matters is getting past that layer of seemingly impregnable defense. A bullet can easily knock out an elephant with mediocre accuracy.

But it can hardly harm cockroaches, bacteria or viruses. Smallest, deadliest.

Same in society, whilst those high up there are powerful enough to get you unemployed with a snap of a finger. Probably a rumor will kill them just as well. Political leaders, CEOs, ministers. How much effort does it take to spread a rumor nowadays anyways. Facebook, twitter, blogs, speech. In retrospect, looking at minor peons or the rubbish collectors that ensure your dustbins continue to be functional, they don't get sacked because they make mistakes.

They can reprimanded. And they're fine. Scolded, and they can still laugh after work. They're the ones who are the most resilent. But we seem to overlook that point. So would you really want to be up there, clinging on to your position, worrying over when someone will strike you down?
