last full day

This is my last full day in hk before I move back to uk for the new academic year. I have been asked to go many places but I don't want to!!!!! My mum said that it was pre-departure depression and I don't deny it.

I had a chat with a friend recently. He had a very strong view on an issue which had deeply affected his family. I am not saying that he is wrong in keeping that view but if he had learnt to let go and deal with it then life isn't so bad. I can say it proudly as I have been through that. Well I don't say it but I have been through the same thing. It took me many years to start taking things more lightly. Sometimes when you see keep something to yourself for too long it damages your relationship, your physique and more importantly your mental balance. It can literally drive a person mad. There had been so many people driven into mental institutes for just this reason. What is more important is that the past had gone there is still the future. This part may be hard and bad it just mean that future will be comparably better.

Well his problem wasn't this part. It was more about society inflicted negativity. There is no escaping. The only solution is to live with it and try to make it affect you in the least possible way. I know that this is an issue affecting many of us and I don't say that I am immune to it. It is just that to have taken years to learn to deal with it rather than just complaining. Once you have reached this point you will be able to live happily. We are a social species and so social issues will follow us for eternity. Why don't we just pronounce the more positive and try to deal with the negative and move on. There will always be a better future that way.
