But in my opinion, this day would be silly if it was only used to advertise and sell products, encouraging people to go around spending money to feel emotionally satisfied. Singles Day is also good from the perspective of having an extra opportunity to stimulate the economy. I wonder, will there be people who fill their hearts with food or wine, or consumer products? There are many ads that read as if a single person is desperate to buy more brands, clothes, spend more and you will find life less lonely and empty. 11, the Singles Day people didn't celebrate the beauty of true love but rather it was turned into a day mainly for sales and discounts. " Ế" means ‘the leftover’, those that couldn’t find a mate in time and suffer perpetually left on the shelf. Because of this word, single people want to get married just because they feel pressured by " ế" in the eyes of society, not because they found a suitable person. I consider it anti-romantic and degrading the meaning of love. Western languages do not have a word that can be translated for the word " ế" because it is an ugly concept, with connotations of disparaging and bullying the person assigned to this word. Last week was Singles Day, and I saw a lot of people mentioning the word " ế" with many purposes and nuances. It’s not my intent to encourage people to stay single, nor do I intend to do so myself. And recently in the West, we can see that weaker communities lead to increased crime. In "Tribe," author Sebastian Junger explains why the family is the heart of society. This trend makes for lowered overall family values and a lack of labor resources.
But everyone being single also isn't great for the country and the community either. Theory of mind holds that we are all very different and do not necessarily live according to one model, one particular style that society wants. I live alone (except for the ghosts) but I find a way to create joy through my hobbies, making friends, and setting goals to aim for in life.ĭon't get me wrong, I'm not against marriage. This job does not help me to earn a lot of money to become rich, especially in Vietnam. I am a writer and I work to improve my satirical writing skill. Many of the artists I know create better when they're single and chasing unrequited love, the muse. Some artists choose to devote themselves to honest artistic creation even though they never know when their efforts will be successful but they take risks for the sake of passion. Some people choose the path of self-cultivation living in a temple and meditating. If we stood on the moon and looked down the houses are just like tiny ants and the goal of marriage becomes a very small thing in the great vast civilization.Įveryone has a different lifestyle. I am curious about the way people think and how they often advise others to live like they do. But I don't feel bothered, on the contrary, I find the taxi driver's words interesting. He thinks I'm making the biggest mistake of my life.
