shattered dreams

i like the night better than the day
i enjoy the quiet solace the darkness offers
especially when it is like now
a gentle breeze and soft, easy music in the background as i sat in front of the lap top
i feel at peace with the world

cracking my little head for new product ideas in the middle of the night
somehow inspirations come easier at night in the cool darkness rather than the harsh day light
several ideas have formed vaguely
i can see their fuzzy outlines but none are the wow ideas i hope to get
but its a start nontheless

oh
and i visited the camp he is in
it doesn't look all that bad, being totally new and all
it was almost pretty
but the looks on the NS boys was another story all together

i guess i knew all along that guys generally do not enjoy serving NS
but i didn't know that it made them THAT unhappy
i might not be the most sensitive or receptive to others' emotion nor can i claim that i am very well-skiled at interpreting facial expression
but i am certain that it was genuine joy and comfort that was on their faces at seeing their loved ones for that short meal
then, there was the look of concern on parents' faces as they inspect their sons to see whether they are adapting well
(although i must say that three days wont really take a serious toll on them just yet, so their visual inspection would not be of much use)
it was the same all around, regardless of race or religion
parents will always worry about their children no matter how grown up they are as demonstrated again today
snacks, nescesities and whatever else(that is allowed) that might just make their sons' life a little easier

intersting morning i would say
insights into a place i would otherwise very unlikely be able to enter
observing how different yet similar people are

on a sidenote, that, i guess is nation builiding
when all the NS guys and their parents share the same feeling and sentiments
bonding through common experience
ok, so that last point was rather out of point but it just popped into my head
