while having a chat wit my friends today, the topic of hypocrites arises.
The question was 'is it good to have a mask 24/7'?
.

hmmm.. i guess tats depends on the situation
hence i replied that if its mainly on being courteous and friendly, then its ok.
but when it comes to life principles, then i feel that one must always stand strong at their principles regardless of others' opinion.
then i gave a few examples of my own experience with hypocrites.
sadly, to my greatest dismay, most of the hypocrites that i can think of have a few typical trends.
(this is all my personal experiences and nothing to do wit anyone else)
1st trend - a certain religious 'self-proclaimed followers'
2nd trend - they are either close friends or relatives (hypocrite magnet?! O_0)
3rd - they are mainly chinese and indians (this can be a demographic bias!!)
4th - they are young people
5th - they are well-educated and professionals in their own fields.
the last 2 trends were the ones that scared me.

does this means that hypocrisy is a young and educated trend???
or perhaps, hypocrisy is somehow needed in the modern world to survive??
but whatever the reasons, do not take to heart with all these hypocrisy! (Aha!! i m being a hypocrite now!)
people that u don't like to see or talk with, just deleted them from your facebook, msn, handphone, friendster, life, blog ...etc
just dun waste any neurons on them
oh n yes, World peace. =)
This is the reunion dinner that i prepared this CNY eve in Melbourne~ took me 2 hrs. but it was fun and delicious! (at least i choose to believe that it is!!!)

日本では「空気を読める」事が重要とされますね。
the word "hypocrite" doesn't really apply in japanese culture. its because we are required to sometimes kill our individual ideas for the good of society.
this is called [kuki wo yomu] which directly translates to "reading the atmosphere", as mentioned above.
its a necessity, in some culture, to some extent.
I'm a hypocrite! and in the same time, contradicting walking paradox. whee :P
