The lamp has been switched off when the sun rises. Do you think it is the beginning of the day for the lamp or it is the time for the lamp to start sleeping?

I seldom wake up so early in the morning. Thanks to our friends from Penang, we bought them to visit a temple very early in the morning and I have had a chance to take this picture at the temple. It was about a month ago… …

Today I wake up very early again… … Actually I like to wake up early in the morning but most of the time it is not easy because of the tiredness carried forward from the previous day. I asked myself why I like to wake up very early in the morning where staying on the bed may feel more comfortable. My answers are I like to enjoy the morning breeze, I like to enjoy the cool air, I want to listen to the bird songs, I want to watch the sunrise, and I want to see the sky turn its colour from black to dark blue, then orange (sometimes) then light blue, and finally totally bright. I also like to see the quiet street start getting busy by the increasing number of cars passing by. I like to see the changes.

Sometimes an important event may overcome the tiredness to make me wake up early, such as an early morning flight, or an appointment at 8am or earlier. Willingness is another issue. I like to wake up early does not mean that I am willing to wake up early. If you ask me which one I prefer, the comfortable bed or the nice bird song and beautiful sunrise, my answer would definitely the second option. But most of the time tiredness and the comfortable bed win the battle. I believe that if I have stronger will, I would be able to wake up early everyday.

Well, what is your answer for the question on the first paragraph above? My answer is that the lamps never sleep and wake up, each lamp take turns to give us brightness… Because… we should not forget that the sun is the brightest lamp in the morning.

Are we talking about adjectives today? No, we are not. Nor are we talking about lizards. Those are just some elements that I am going to use to express some of my humble thoughts. Why lizards? Well, it is because I find these two lizards rather amusing.

The photo of the bigger lizard was taken outdoor and the other one of course was taken indoor as you can see the switches. Don’t worry. He got away. He was not electrocuted or hurt in any other ways.

Everybody has a different definition of big, enormous, small and tiny. So do I. Are you going to take more precautions against the big green lizard or the tiny brown one here?

However, if you are in the lizards’ shoes, you might be taking a lot more precautions because human could be an enormous creature to you.

It is fascinating how we could judge. We are able to judge because we have opinions and different mindsets. If we get to a more serious stage of disagreement, people could end up fighting and never talk to each other anymore.

They are both lizards. They might look different in colours and sizes but they are the same. Now, if we could have the mindset of everything and everybody is the same, do you think the world would be a better place? In that case, all living beings would be able to live in harmony then.
