[TED] Paul Zak: Trust, morality - and oxytocin
REFLECTION
It's interesting to know such an idea--how come something abstract can be proved with science. I can never know there is (could be) MORAL MOLECULE (OXYTOCIN) if not this TED episode.
Whether I take it or not is not the most important thing of all, yet there are ALWAYS some lines that I can't agree more--it's empathy that makes us feel connected and trustworthy and so on and so forth.
WELL SAID, Mr. Zak.
Without empathy, how can one person avoid something that may hurt others?
So I guess I will start to do whatever I want others to do to me and avoid those that I won't want others to do to me.

PATHETIC
feeling so pathetic and dont know what i would be like if without you
it is u that i want to teach in US
even tho i know i'm far from qualified
just like a fool working hard (but far from enough) without any direction
trying so hard to catch up with u
and without realizing it
just dont know who i am and what i want
maybe 7 yrs is good enough for me
maybe i dont want to teach Mandarin at all
maybe i dont want to keep running after u all the time
it just takes me too much
not the time or money but my dignity
maybe it's time

For Future Memory (1)
as an incurable procrastinator, i seldom write about life here in Canada, more specifically, Vancouver, even though i've lived here fore more than 2 years. no matter they are some kind of trips, adventures, hang-out, or dining-together, i seldom keep track of them, which i think, of course, is a great pity. without those records, i assume my 2 year-ish life in Canada, when retrospected in the future, would seem blank completely. Alas.
So i guess now it's time to compose some records so that in the future i can prove my Canadian existence.
tho still kinda in a total chaos and not knowing how to organize and what to write, yet i was trying to be led by my instinct and mind and thought, flowing wherever they are led. i suppose sometimes records can be very casual, right?!
maybe i can have it chronologically, or, the other way round. whatever. you will know, at last, hehe.
