the city life.
Personally, I feel that Singapore is a great city to stay in, on one condition that if you are rich.
You can get anything you want, world class services, tastes from all over the world, high quality and security of life in this Urban oasis, as our PM has previously referred our Singapore as.
You work like a dog in the day, and if you get paid well, you will be fed well too. Work hard play hard, not so much so a dead city by the night like Australia or Canada with shops closed by 5pm, but in contrast, a vivid and lively night life awaits for you in Singapore. As long as you have the money.
And in a place like this with full of temptations, it's hard to not be pragmatic and materialistic as much as we wouldn't want ourselves to become one. The well furnished houses, the fanciful jewelries, almost everything around us comes with a price tag. And it's not easy to talk about living with no desires as if we are surrounding by coconut trees on a deserted island.
Maybe that's why there are so many unhappy people around us, ourselves included. That we are never contented with life with what we have got and we almost set our eyes on those we don't have. We spend our lives chasing after fame after brands comparing with others, and we eventually lost ourselves along the way.
May I continue to be contented and give thank to what I have got.
