Have not been blogging for 1 and half month, sometimes it is a dangerous thing not to keep the continuous flow of a momentum, because once it is lost, it can be hard to pick it up again...
Anyway, recently suddenly have this thought, it's regarding coolness~~
I noticed that people behaviour is somehow driven by the coolness behind the act, this is especially true for younger generations...
When people think dying red onto the hair is cool, dang dang, the hair color of the person turned red...
When people think having tattoo is cool, tattoo is all over the body...
When people think that wearing SKIN T-shirt is the coolest fashion in town, he/she will save up money and buy a SKIN t-shirt, and wear it and make sure everyone see it the next day...
I realized, I myself, non different from the rest, also driven by coolness...
I think that act cool in the outside even though it is hot in the heart, I do accordingly, causing me being silent at times because i think it is cool...
I think that dying hair seems cool, I did it from time to time...
I think that being hilarious is cool, I am learning to do so now...
But then...
Is it really cool? Then I realized it is actually not important that if the action is really cool in the very nature, it is the feeling of the person who did it matters.. If the person think that it is cool, he/she will just want to do it...
But I just puzzled... majority actually are merely followers of the "cool acts", who then actually being the first mover to bring up the "cool act" which later people think is cool and follow?? I have no answer... Why can't we be that first mover of the cool act? Instead of follow the pattern of action that other people influence us to think that is cool, why we cannot just influence others that what we do is cool?
I think, if we can somehow influence others that being a humble servant is cool, we will not need to worry there are not enough people serving in the church... If extend the concept abit, by influencing and convincing people that attending to a church is actually a cool act, i think people will be attracted to attend to church to see what it is really all about...
No wonder Jesus wants us to be the light and salt of the earth, to shine, to influence... But how many actually manage to do so??
Anyway, it is just something in my heart right now...
