They want us to go to school
And to turn the pages of books…
Why learn the language of books
When the forest speaks to you?
One cannot eat books,
And pens and pencils are poor weapons
To kill the deer of the mountains
And the grunting boar…
Gilbert Perez in The Leader.
Our education system of today;
We neglected our root and
follow the less outdated and paganistic way of teaching and learning.
We feed on the stress and the mind pollution,
the idiotic in us is like an X-linked genes that we carry from one generation to another,
How far has we improved since the voyage of Marco Polo, the E=mc2, the gravity,
Did we get more civilized compared to our forefathers??
You said they lived in the jungle and with no Facebook,
Where you living?
A jungle of concrete with even more lack of connection no matter how many social networks you registered to.
You said they don't wear Gucci and Prada.
What the use of wearing 'em when you wears as less as them today,
and when the pattern are from the natures that they are wearing directly?
You said they don't have Blackberry and Apple.
Before, it just a healthy fruits that didn't give you Carpal Tunnel.
You said they are pagan.
they are closer to the spiritual vibes WAY more than the 'holiest' religions today.
far from unnecessarily distraction.
Can the pen and pencils save our Earth??
Can the computers reset to the 'manufactures' settings??
Can you find a book that teaches you how to being a human??

background of this entry.
Yesterday was the day where I think deep about what I've become since I am here in this city. Looking around from the double-decker bus on my way home, gives me perfect vision of this city.
The drain,
the road-side,
the railway,
the road,
the cars,
malls,
the people
and ME.
We all are effed up in the same way.
Our education systems didn't focus on raising a human being.
It didn't gives way for you to be a better person. It gives you a piece of shit that you are forced to swallow.
We all didn't look back at yesterday.
We all sick of today.
We all scared of tomorrows.
this is not a journal life complaining,
but more on the realization of what life we are leading to.
I know I can't change the world generally.
However, I can change my little own world.
Now I wish my forefathers stays in the jungle,
feed the jungle and let it feeds them.
Live a simple life and have a greater happiness.
xoxo.
