A service

Can u describe a painting to a avid painting lover? Can u describe how it feels to get high from drunk? Can u describe how pain feels? Can u describe how love feels? Can u describe how numb feels? Can u describe how death feels? Most imptly, would even trying to describing it help, or will it end with 'how to say, u must exp it urself to understand....'

So, STOP THE F*&^%ING DEBATE OF WAT ARMY IS, WAT ITS IS GD, WAT ITS IS BAD, ESP THOSE THAT DUN GO THRU IT!!!!!

Im not here to down play it. I know its importance for the country. Everyone has its own exp in the army, n it is for himself to understand, appreciate, learn. I have seen people grow in the army, while i personally felt the cruelity it could do.

It taught me the harsh reality of this world.
It taught me power is not everything, but w it, u can do anything u wan.
It taught me kindness is appreciated, but its not really a necessary.
It taught me humans are eventually selfish.
It taught me to place urself above all, cos thats wat everyone does.
It taught me anything can be done, just dun get caught

Hey, give it its rightful credit, u cant learn all these in sch ok.

I have ORDed already, but u im still bothered by my army exp sometimes. Did more damage to my body n mind inside than i expected. Pls, i had to go thru 2 yrs of army life w a partially torn ligament, while the 1st 1 n a half yrs people kept thinking i was faking it to escape. Think people out there might still think im faking it. Hai

Its the only place in my life where i had the tot of killing myself. I have a friend to verify that.

Talk is trivial. Pls, when it comes to army, like wat my friend would say, speak to the hand.....

hi GuoTing,

I guess though I can empathise your feeling, I can never truly understand the pain your body and mind have to overcome during your army life as I do not go through it myself. But now you have finally overcome it, and I sincerely wish you are able to get the positives from it, and put it into good use in your future life.

I guess it is really tough and disturbing to learn something that is so conflicting with your personal beliefs, that's part of life. There are so many other people, we can learn the good from them. And most importantly, we would have to stay firm with our own principle. That's the way to go really far, I guess.
