What a broken world we are in...
Spend friday night out with some people, intended for supper only but after that they decided to go boat quay to meet Serena they all, so we went down to UP entertainment where venesse work as most of the place would be full on holiday night. Got a table where they open one bottle and a bucket of 5, while i was there drinking plain water. Was coughing hence decided not to drink any alcoholic drink and they also did not insist i drink with them, so yeah. All the way till 4 plus when one of them were already knock out, its was so obvious to those with knowledge that she would definitely get drunk when she drank hard liquor at first and drag about half a bottle of beer each time. There they are emo-ing, while venesse got into some argument with people from the opposite bar when she went to smoke, we just stood opposite to see if there is anything wrong before reacting to any sudden event if there is any, reason we did not step up was the fact that she was in the wrong to go over herself, she could just keep quiet and walk back in. Left the bar and walk over to Singapore river, and the drunk girl was like crying over her life, crying over her sad life saying all sorts of stuff in her life. She even said this "How i wish i could get pregnant now, bear a children for my grandma just so that i could gain her grandma favour" (She said her grandma loves children) , and how much she wish she can die and not bother bout such things when she is only so young.
This is the world we are living in, a world destroying its own life, a world which just to gain a favour in someone eyes, would want to get pregnant, and goes sleeping around with people, switch many boyfriend and engage in sexual act with them. When you hear all this, does it ache your heart? Why does your heart ache? Is it because this person story has touch your heart and you sympathize with her, or is it because you seen the brokenness of the person life? Seeing how this world is destroying its own life, hurts your heart like how it hurts God when God looks down? I can imagine God looking from above and seeing all this things happening, there He would be crying, God's heart really beats for people, but is our heart beating for people much as we say it? Does our heart beat for people around our life only? Or does it really beat for people just like God? That night out with them really let me see the brokenness of this world, out of the group of 8 people, the story of 3 person life through words and action is enough to see this world destroying itself.
Walk down the streets of boat/clarke quay at the wee hour of the day, you will see a world destroying its own
