We are but tiny specks of dust.


When I first saw images and videos of the tsunami and earthquake in Japan, I was like, whoa. Interesting. Now that more and more videos of the destruction left by these disasters have popped up, there's no longer any fascination. If that earthquake had touched us, I doubt my hdb will still be standing. If the tsunami had reached us, I doubt my hdb will still be standing too. And if those things can 'never' happen to us because of our geological positioning, there's still that mega volcano that could erupt in Indonesia. And Indonesia has a lot of volcanoes. If this is how forest fires all the way there impact us, imagine volcanoes spewing toxic gases. We'll just choke to death in our little hdb flats.

All dreams and aspirations will die, just like that.

We are but tiny specks of dust. At least I'm reminded of that.
