It's a man eat man world out there and i dont think such a philosophy applies only to those in the rat race. It applies to everyone.
A friend told me today that we shouldnt show our weaknesses to the world, or we'll only be trampled over.Not that the thought has never occured to me before. It has. But the application didn't seem very important at that time because i was safely cocooned in a very protective shell of friendship. What naivete and innocence. :) Typical of me.
For now, i see things in a clearer perspective, where seeing things through a rose tinted glass gets you in trouble more often than not. Where being cynical,embittered and experienced comes naturally when faced with the "developing" world. Ironically, they "develop" in many areas ie,science,technology,economic progress,elevation of poverty. But the development doesnt seem to have touched moral values.On the contrary,it does seem that in that area, they are deterioating.
I sound like a moral enthusiast/preacher/idealist dont i ? :)
