Interview with Dr Jekyll

Q. My name and age?

A. Name's Tang Yeh Heng, gonna turn 24 this comin' October. Oh boy, feel like I'm gettin' old. What have I done fer the past 24 years?

Q. What's Your Favourite color?

A. Black....I like white too, both are natural colours. Being natural is me.

Q. What religion are ya?

A.  Religion? I guess i dun wanna belong to any religion. I'm a Aethist. I will respect whoever who practise any religion but dun piss me off with the "fire and brimstones" and "burn in hell " crap. Is this what religion is about? I dun think so. And who is GOD? He's all of us, the earth, universe, humans, animals, everythin'. One for all and all for one. And stop tellin' me my life lies in GOD's hand, I dun wanna be a slave of somethin'. My life and fate are in my own hands, and if you still insist that it's GOD who has my life, then i'm GOD.

Spread LOVE and not Hellfire.

Q. Have you ever wonder how the day you die is gonna be like?

A. Yea man....I would want my loved ones to be happy fer me. And no traditional chinese funeral. If they insist, I would wanna invite a heavy metal band. Well, on the day, I just hope I lived my life to the fullest, no regrets no remorse. And there are a few people who shed tears for me.....and people remember my good deeds instead of how much money I made or how famous I was.

Q. What are your worst fears?

A.  ummm...fear...we are living in the world of fears and anxieties. I guess I dun have anythin to be fear of so long as your heart is calm and serene. Wait a minute....what I fear are kids walking around in shopping malls. I'm sorry if I kicked them by accident....my vision is just not as low as them.

Q. What kinda things disgust you ?

A.  People who cut the "queue" when I'm about the board the bus. Sounds a little petty eh? but it really piss me off!! And those idiots who block the way when I'm alighting the MRT. Tell me about gracious society. (did I misunderstood the term?)

Q. What do you think of Singapore as gracious society?

A. "the government promotes gracious society.... !F#@% KNNBCCB..." That's a ironic cliche used in my army daze. Why do we need someone to tell us to be gracious? Is there something wrong with the society or education system or simply ourselves?  Singaporeans are becoming selfish, inconsiderate and arrogant. I'm a Singaporean!!! I dun wanna be labelled as those qualities!! Singapore, a superficial society where money, status and cars can make a person feels good about himself/herself. ......enough said, you guys go think about it.

Q. What are your growing up pains?

A. Denial, Anger, Depression .....and finally comes to acceptance. I'm afraid to make mistakes but I always tell myself, "fall down seven, stand up eight" maybe it's just my pride. But if I do things the right the first time, then i'm not learning much.

Q. Have you ever been in love?

A. Love....real love? I'm afraid not. Most of the time I deceive myself into loving. I figured out that that's not too cool for the girl, so I gave up fast. Why? The feelings are Just not right I guess. Always the case when I meet an attractive woman whom I like, then she a) has a boyfriend/husband, b) lesbian/butch, c)has many friends she prefers to me, d) does not even notice my existence. HAHAHAAHHAA.

Q. Do you like money?

A. Who doesn't? But money can't buy love, happiness, true friendship, peace of mind and good health.....why dun I get a chance to win lottery to prove it???? Yea...it can't buy happiness, but it sure make misery easier to live with.

Q. So what are the complains from your ex-gf?

A. I always cannot establish eye contacts with them....errr....cuz they dun have eyes on their chests.(Kidding). Actually, they complained that our relationships lack of arguments. I dun give a shit about arguments. But they think that it spice up the relationship. umm...points to ponder.....fer my next relationship.

Q. Do you have any enemies?

A. The worst enemy is myself. If I ever have any enemies, I will ask if we can wipe the slate clean. Their reply : " why duncha go fuck yourself?" Sometimes no one can win.

Thoughts

Beyond the horizon, of a place we used to live when we were young, in a world full of love and miracles. Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary, I can hear us calling ourselves. Along the long road, a tunnel of light shines, will we meet on the other side?

Looking beyond the buidlings, glowing with light behind us, have a glimpse of how green it is on the other side. As we thought we have taken many steps forward, but actually we are sleepwalking back again. Our lives are consumed by slow decay. Encumbered forever by anxieties, fear, anger, hatred, desire, greed and ambitions, there's a hunger still left unsatisfied. Our weary eyes still stray towards the horizon, as though down this road we've been there so many times.

If one think hate about someone, for whatever reasons, he/she will be responsible for both himself and accountable for the entire humanity. This sounds like exaggeration, but everything affects everything else at some point in time. A thought is said to be an energy. We are all is interconnected with one another in a grandscale, we are part of the entire universe. (imagine the atomic structure) .We might be just a little particle in an atom or electron, etc. Every bad thought aimed at another, no matter what they have done, or how they deserved it, are all tests to learn and grow from. Ugly thoughts are making people ugly. If you think sex as being a sin or a bad thing, then you are creating another sexual perversion to satisfy all the more.

Remember, thought is a creation through time. Learn to love. Think give and not get, think love and not hate.

Everyone thinks that they are a cage trying to catch the bird of fortune, fame, status, wealth, power, etc. In reality, everyone is a bird looking for a cage to lock himself up. The bird flies and into the cage of fortune, fame, status, power, etc. What is loss is mistakenly considered gain; the hunted still thinks of himself as the hunter. People spend their whole life pursuing everythin'. Indeed, their spirits are long buried alive by everythin'. How can it be that layers of prison are what we pursue in life? Points to ponder.............
