As we visited the Tuol Sleng Museum in Cambodia, it was the much known for Prison of those who got executed at THE KILLING FIELDS.
FREEDOM restricted. How sad could it be when you are not able to do things that you wanted to do because you are not free at all. Freedom held, freedom purged, freedom you can not even pay for not work for. Life could be so hard to be in a situation where in you are bound to be behind barb wires, waiting for death. Even escaping meant early death. Would you just choose to wait for your turn to be killed? Or would you be bold enough to escape and die voluntarily earlier that scheduled? Life is sad when you are behind thorny + rusty barb wires like these. Can you imagine yourself being deprived of your own freedom? They were taken captive. Some did not even have the time to understand what was happening. It was not a choice. It was not even an option. More painful is when you know you do not even have an assurance that you will be able to escape and go out of that prison and the part of waking up day after day, that today could be the day you are meant to die. It is Painful, but True! We are still born blessed and that we are given our freedom to be able to do our own will. For others, it was not even a choice! Take care of your freedom, it is a GIFT!

Trying at the wrong time will make your efforts futile. Persistence is good but wisdom is required. Perfect example. Inside the metro rail transit commonly known as MRT in Singapore. It says no signal but you keep trying, even knowing that you do not have a network. You keep refreshing and then you get upset that you don't get what you are expecting. You expect emails to update. You expect connectivity. But you know the fact that there is no network. We are stubborn. We keep pushing. Do not confuse it with persistence.
Set it aside. No matter how many times you try, when there is no signal under the ground, your efforts to refresh and keep trying is useless. Why don't you save your effort, wait for the signal to come back. Definitively when you are at places that detects the network, it will come back. Only then, you try again. Don't force it. If still unhappy, change Network provider! Hahahahah! Time to rest. Time to start. Time to stop. Time to try. Time to wait. Time to try again. Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 NIV. There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: 2 a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, 3 a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build, 4 a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, 5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain 6 a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away 7 a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, 8 a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace. |
