Singaporeans are too pragmatic to appreciate the finer things of life. Do I agree? Well, to some extent, yes. Our main mission in Singapore either to get a good job, a better post or make more money. We often do focus on the bigger picture and neglect the finer details Think about it. Do we often neglect our family members and friends when rushing to meet deadlines or reach a goal? Do we take it for granted that they are there? And when was the last time you actually stopped to admire a flower’s beauty? In some families, parents work late nights to finish up a project, to meet a client’s needs. Sometimes, this goes to the extent that their children are not even able to catch a glimpse of them or talk to them in that day. Sometimes you think: have they ever questioned their purpose of working so hard till late at night? They do it for money. They do it for a more comfortable life. They do it to bring up their children – but don’t you find them actually neglecting them instead? Most of my friends spend their time at home alone in the afternoons while their parents are out at work. Some even have to have dinner alone because their parents do not return till late at night. Why do they let their professions come first, before their families?
