i sin , therefore i am condemned

Religion is indeed baffling.

In most religions i have come across , wrongdoings will guarantee you a a permanent residence in Hell.

From a christian's POV , it is called sin.

"All sinners go to hell" , they claim.

This statement scares me no end , because its undeniable that everyone has sinned before in some way.

Yes , that includes you.. you and YOU !

We are all going to sizzle in hell.

Besides , what is sin ??

It is so subjective.

To the extremely pious , even just by looking at a woman and going "woah nice legs" , a sin has been commited.

I dare say even the holiest of the holiest have entertained such undesirable thoughts before.

And then there is Buddhism.

This is a bit more tricky to explain .

Excerpt from a website

"all that is created is impermanent, subject to alteration and change,

and being such, all impermanent things are inherently a state of ill-being.

this being so, it is not fitting to say that which is ill that am I, that is mine, that is my self.

do I understand?

every iota of everything is just make-believe fiction

and none of it exists in truthand when this is seen as the way things truly are

then that is the end of all anguish and the end of the continuation of what never existed in truth to begin with"

hahaha.

Sibei cheem.

Its like saying..

I am neither here nor there.

I am neither unconscious or conscious.

I am neither sleeping or awake.

Hit the musuems with Nic again and this time , we check out the Asian Civilisations Musuem @ Empress place.

Boy , that place damn high-class lor !

Think dimmed lights , parquet flooring , soft piped in music and cleaners furiously polishing glass at every corner.

And as usual , the ambience was extremely eerie.



Fiona the tourist.




SINGAPORE'S FATTEST CAT EVER !

And no , contrary to popular belief , it's not pregnant.

Upon closer inspection , this lump of fat here has no nipples and has two furry balls the size of grapes swinging near its ass :P

This obscenely obese tomcat here is always lurking around the NPC near the golden mile food centre @ Beach road , so do give him a nice scratch behind his ears when you're in the vicinity.

By the way , to all of you who keeps nit-picking at how small and boring our little sunny island is , BALLS TO YOU !

You probably have that narrow mindset because Orchard road is your only destination on weekends.

Believe me when i say that there is so much to see and do right here if you're willing to sweat and walk around.

I was really quite taken by surprise when Nic and I walked around aimlessly trying to find Sungei road from Bugis and we ended up in Little India just by crossing a small neighbourhood that feels like its trapped in another era.

Too much has been happening in my life recently.

So many things to do , so little time.

So much to explain to some people.
