Does everything have to make sense?
You see I come from a society where everything is so predictable. We are told so often by foreigners who came visiting “ Singapore is such a fantastic place. So efficient...productive, effective etc...” And my usual response is "We are so sterile"
One day during the Festival of Arts, a fringe performance at the shopping mall in the main shopping. It was a lunch time performance. Like many I look forward for these fringe performances because it’s free.
And so we all gathers…….after the performance a man who was standing beside me turn and asked “do you understand what the whole performance is all about?”
“nope I don’t” I answered back.
“Ok”
“..but you know come to think of it … why should it make sense all the time. Occasionally when you come across something that does not make sense, it’s very refreshing right?”
“yes … now you’re making sense to me” and we had a good laugh.
