Down to w.s.d.p! Great sharing by Darryl!
Like what he had shared, exploring places with the 5 senses = Drag packer!!
Seeing the clips and his sharing, naturally I made a comparison to our dearest country SG! And its really amazing there is something to compare between a cosmopolitan city and a 3rd world.
Social developments of the society falls back deeply to the standard of literacy in the country. And it boils down to the infrastructure provided by the country, the government. Lets first go to SG.
In SG, we are proud of our "breath-taking" system. Compulsory education for all citizen and well planned education paths for citizen to "pursue" their forte. But result was a very stressful society, minimal social grace to talk about, quite higher than normal suicide rate and increasing low birth rate. Citizen all falls into career rat race, doing something not they want and not that establish spiritual development.
In Ethiopia, famous for AIDS, stray kids, poverty, drought and corrupted system. But I have been constant "disturbed" by clips showing laughing people, a student reading as he works as a cobbler, remarkable hospitality and amazingly high social grace. Darryl even commented their level of contentment to Bhutan!
Now, is there something "strange" about the social system currently in placed. I tried my best to rationalize and brought it to our constant flux of the new citizen. In SG we are proud to be in a culture "melt pot". Or maybe that's our very own SG culture ...... but then, what exactly do we want to develop into? (Mind-Bogging indeed)
P.S Keep a look up to the second episode of w.s.d.p Drag packer series :)
