What's this about?

I'm sitting on a bus, and the crazy driver is racing with the cars. But he has to stop to let passengers off, that's his disadvantage. I guess each one of us has to know our limits. It's good to aspire to go further than we've gone before, but I think gradual organic growth is the better approach.
It's an exciting time to be alive now. Possible recession in the U.S., super high oil prices, ever increasing globalisation. The world is becoming smaller by the day and all our lives are intertwined. Yet, we live more and more isolated lives. Family units are getting smaller, the large reunions are disappearing together with the "kampung" lifestyles that some of us grew up with.
We make our own noise, our own celebrations. It's up to us to make our lives worthy.
