screaming kids.... screaming adults....

was a store just now buying snacks. there i saw a kid, screaming and crying at the maid. "I want tat chocolate!!! I want! I want!! I want!!!!!~~~~~~" voice squeaked as it reaches the high note only a soprano could hit. after seeing the price, the poor maid tried her utmost to explain to a wailing kid that she did not have enough money with her.

in a kid's world, everything revolves around himself/herself with no room for explanations or logics. it's all about him/her, and no one else... politically correct saying he's just a child, behaving like a child --- childish. of cos some would say he's a spoilt brat. not condoning his actions, but to him, that's wat his world made of --- himself: his wants, his needs, his feelings...

yet, as an adult, honestly.. dun we behave the same at times? only difference is that as we age [gracefully or ungracefully], we simply disguised tat selfishness under a visage of politically correct self-justification. the bottom line is still the same. our point of reference is mainly based nothing but ourselves. what else can i say? we have humans afterall....
