There are two classes of Chinese peoples. For the sake of simplification, let's designate them as Chinese-educated, people educated in Chinese-medium schools, and non-Chinese-educated, people educated in non-Chinese-medium schools.

Non-Chinese-educated people typically behave like urbanized city folk, people accustomed to high-tech gadgets, fancy cars, fashionable wear and so on.

Chinese-educated people typically behave like uncivilized jungle tribes, people unaccustomed to high-tech gadgets, fancy cars, fashionable wear and so on but have a very strong desire to show to the whole world, everyone in sight or within earshot, that they too are capable of owning high-tech gadgets, fancy cars, fashionable wear and so on like everyone else.

 Almighty God has already planned in what manner each day ends for each creation of his from the greatest to the least. Our purpose here is to find out how our day ends from one day to the next.

Observations # 13

One good thing about the heart is it never lies.

Be it cold, evil, wicked, filthy, corrupt, perverted, deceitful, cunning or hypocritical on one hand or good, generous, honest, loving, caring or warm on the other hand, the heart never lies, and therein lies its beauty. 

Vaccinations

Vaccinations should be more people-friendly. The way it's done at present, with sharp needles, even children are terrified. How could they not be?

That's the trouble with humans, the way of men, or mankind if you like.

Pliers for rotten teeth and sharp needles for flu shots. Oh, let's not forget the hangman's noose, the executioner's axe and the electric chair for condemned criminals.

The way of men, or mankind if you like.

No wonder not everyone's falling over himself or herself in a rush to get vaccinated. Nothing wrong, or frightful, about vaccines, which by the way are medicinal in nature. It's the sharp needles used to inject them into our bodies that's the problem.

Anywhere else, a syringe with a sharp needle attached would potentially be considered a dangerous weapon, a sharp object, as forensic detectives at a crime scene would describe, but in hospital settings, or vaccination centers, they were considered standard tools for treating sick or unvaccinated people with, like pliers for rotten teeth, bone saws for pulling the ribs apart, scalpels for cutting into the flesh and, yes, needles and thread for stitching you up afterwards, like a torn shoe or worn-out clothes.

The way of men, or mankind if you like, in a godless, or pagan if you like, world, I might add. 

Observations # 12

Doing the right thing, usually more troublesome, is not something embedded in the DNA of the general population, or so it seems.

What the general population prefers doing, or so it seems, is what's more convenient, and hence less bothersome, such as passing around bum (expertly-taped torn) currency notes, sometimes crumpled too, usually in the course of cashier-customer transactions, in the hope it goes unnoticed, until it's too late.

Always check your loose change when it's handed to you for bum (expertly-taped torn) currency notes, sometimes crumpled too, seems to be what life is saying to you. 

Oddly, no one checks to see if it's all there, the correct amount of loose change that's handed to you in the course of cashier-customer transactions, or so it seems, as that much honesty has come to be taken for granted, perhaps as cashier's perform cash transactions according to what their cash registers say how much was paid and how much change was due, or so it seems, yet again.
