It's so late. I just arrived home not long ago. I met up with my buddies, rUi, John, Daniel and rOn for supper and talk cock until just now. Earlier in the evening went to watch Troy with John, rUi and Amanda. It's a nice show, seriously. Initially I thought it is a okay show because charlene told me it's only okay, almost got cheated by her. The Troy were actually the good guys but were conquered by the Greeks in the end using a trojan horse but at least the dictator King of Greek was killed in the end. The ending was satisfying, the evil got its retribution. The show also talk alot about pride and honor which make the good one killing the good one instead of joining forces together. It's a pity that the Prince of Troy died.

But do pride or honor really matters ? Is it more important than love, kinship, friendship and peace ? Can't we just forsake pride and honor for love, kinship, friendship and peace ?

I feel that pride and honor is not important, it forces you to do something you do not want to do. In the show Achilles and Hector were forced to fight each other because of honor and pride which Hector was killed by Achilles. Both of them were good men yet one must die during the battle.
