It's not up to us.

Discovery Channel is still my favourite channel.

Today i caught a 20mins portion of "Tribe", showing the living conditions of the Sabah Forest People. I can't help but wonder (although this is not the first time) if i were given a choice,
would i choose choose to live in this cosmopolitian city, stay in a concrete flat, enjoy the air condition, watch a color TV, yet i have to work a 5days stressful week, only enjoy the weekends.

Or would i choose to live in a world where there is only Mother nature and human.
Where we grow crops and eat whatever we have.
Stress? Maybe alittle. We will worry if we have food to eat tomorrow.
Other then that, we get to live to a ripe old age. Really spend time with family and friends (When was the last time you really spend good time with your family and friends? And i mean really good time.)

Imagine, not having to go to work.
There's nothing to compare. No competition.
Not having to worry about "Hey look , who and who is doing better then us".

The kids would not have to go for neverending enrichment classes.

However, we would not get to travel, see the world. Would that be a plus instead?

But who cares what we think? Here in Singapore, i don't really get to choose.
This is truly an enviroment where you have to work hard, no matter you like it anot.
Without the money. There's really nothing.

Sad.

Uniquely Singapore.
