The classic question suddenly pop up in my head, between 2 things (or conditions), one is old and the other is new, which would you choose?
For example, you have a lovely memorable cup, probably given by someone important, that you've been using all these years. But suddenly you found the cup is simply too old to be used, so you got another new cup. Will you keep using the old ones? Or simply dump the old and use the newer cup?
Perhaps you might choose the 3rd choice, keep the old cup as memoirs, and use the new cup. But in some situation, it was simply impossible to have the additional choice. What if you're already in a relationship with someone who loves you dearly, but yet you're meeting another who seems to be so much exciting than your current mate. You'll have to make a choice between the two, who will you choose then?
Choosing both? These kind of story normally happens in love stories, and some do actually end up in happy ending with 3 people living happily ever after. Yet, fiction and real world are different. You might think you're living in a virtual fiction world, but in the end, you'll find yourself facing the real fact of the world is real.
Or so, it would seems to be so.
For me, it would seems impossible for me to let go of the old. I love to collect old stuff, maybe because they usually contains precious memories that's hard to be beaten by new stuff. Some might think that I'm getting outdated (yeah, since I only looking back to the past, and had been ignoring the present and even future), yet, I believe it would be a much better way of living for me. But of course, there're certain things that I've let go (some of my darkness pass, and some pretty damn dark secret that noone knows :p)
People say you shouldn't be this, you shouldn't be that.
You should follow the trend,
You should follow the latest news,
You should know what happens in the world,
You should follow what everyone's do,
Because that's what life is.
Business people would say, if you don't like the current trend, create a new one and let others to follow the trend.
Politician would say, I'll create a new and better life for everyone to follow
Students would say, I deserve on how am I to live.
Because, that's what life is.
People are viewing life from different point of view. The latest way of life nowadays, would be "Enjoy first, let problem come later" Hmm... which is why most youngsters spend most their time entertaining themselves. And yet again, which is the cause for having so many sosial problems among the youngsters. Early marriage, and early divorce. Some say, because we're not destine to be together. Other might say, there's no more love among us. For the worst, the problem would be ignore (the painful triangle relationship, etc) till it's unavoidable some day.
The old and new. A choice between 2 that's pretty hard to answer. I would believe it was pretty much the same to another classic question, usually asked by girls in love. "If your mother and I falls to the ocean, who will you save?" Think about it. Perhaps in the future (or even now), you'll be facing the problem.
For me (jokingly), I wouldn't be able to save anyone. Coz I can't swim. :p

Y suddenly think of old cups? Is it u just get a new cup from someone?? :D
cheers. stick wf the old one. thats what i would do. as said, everythings has their pro and cons - it is about how you feel within your heart towards your course of actions that counts. afterall, it is your life!
another point is that for human, which is actually a community animal, should do his best to adapt to his enviroment. it is understandable everyone has their own preference but it is more important to melt into the society for a sustainable survival. cant beat em? join em, cant join em? leave the hell out of them! lolx. peace
Peace... If you can\'t have it, just leave it and let it go. If it ever be yours, it\'ll come back; if it don\'t, it\'ll never be yours. (hmm... I thought I\'ve heard of this some where else)And yeah, I\'ve just change my old drinking cup. My old ones is the one I used since I\'m small (>20 years), and I\'m still prefering the old one instead.
Life and love is all about choices. But a choice that only you can make for yourself. Whatever that makes you happy. =)
