Dreamer

People say that Pisceans are usually dreamers and I think it's true.. (to a certain extend).. I enjoy reading 'About Pisces' write up because it somehow reminds me of myself. Some people may think of such beliefs as bullshit but people believe in what they choose to believe in. Whenever I am down, I will drown myself into my dream world. It's really gratifying. I think I better stop describing in case someone thinks I need professional help.

Anyway, I always dream of running a charitable organisation which involves in trading consumer goods such as detergents, toiletries, dairy goods, dried goods, paper products, etc. It works like any other companies except that all profit would go to charity. Don't get me wrong; it's not 100% voluntary based thing. It operates just like any other companies except that all profit will go to charity instead of share holders. In a way, the consumers can contribute indirectly to charity by purchasing any of the household products. It's really nice. At least we know that the profit will channel to people who need them. It's rather pathetic seeing advertisements by giant companies which goes, 'For every purchase of RM 100, 10% will go to blah blah blah).. Sounds more like a marketing scheme to me. Oh yeah, there would be no discrimination against ex criminals too. It's one organisation that welcomes them with open hands if they are longing for a second chance in life. Sometimes it's really sad to see the society stigamtizes ex criminals/drug users simply because of their background. People make mistakes in life. I do too, some big some small some shouldnt have happened but to err is human. God give me many 'second-chance' and I wish I could be in the position to give them as well.

People are getting richer by the day; yet there are many people suffering out there. As much as the society wishes to help, being humans, there's only so much they can do. According to MAA's recently donation drive, it would cost up to RM 4000 a month for a patient to undergo dialysis. It's sad to see how people are denied of healthcare services simply because they belong to a lower income group. Sigh. The only thing that remains the same is everything changes. However, I hope I still hold on to my same beliefs - yesterday, today and tomorrow. I just want to play the subordiante role in life. IQ isn't everything. Even Einstein believed that only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile. Life is really beautiful. :)
