Nothing's meant to be..

Now before you go on and say 'oh no, doesn't this guy ever get tired of complaining of his life?' - I have another thing coming.

This is not about my life.

This is about how everyone on God's 'sweet' Earth thinks that everything that ever happens is meant to be - and I am not talking about fate and it's consequences either. No. I am talking about how everyone accepts the idea of certain ideaologies just because theire used to it. Like take for instance certain individuals accept the idea of having to agree to everything a parent says to you without question. The problem in this matter is that you should not just say 'yes' but 'yes but why?'. You'd rather understand for example why you're making yourself a meal instead of just making it for the sake of making it. You're not exactly going to enter a competition with that are you now?

If things are wrong, you should not accept it that way and turn the other cheek as most of the people do - but rather do it the right and lead as an example. Would you jump off a cliff if everyone else did? Forget bungey-jumping or sky-diving. I'm talking free-fall.

There's a service you're not happy with? Make a suggestion to make it better. Go further. Ask for the manager and tell them you're not happy and demand a free compensation.

The only example I can think of in this case is my favorite monopolistic corporation - OmanTel. How many times have you had your internet connection down? Whether you have dial up; ISDN or ADSL. The fact of the matter is that OmanTel should compensate you for the lost hours that you could have used the service. A service unused is a service gone.

I feel very strongly about such things, but if there's a valid excuse - so be it.

But it ain't Christmas everyday, y'know.
