people gush. singapore is so clean, they tell me, so efficient, so able. i always quickly divert the conversation. they do not see the tedious toiling against the winds, only the clever image.
this election heartens me. my country is home to generous ideals intellectual rigor and worthy debate. it is home to compelling passions quirky humor and exuberant creativity. there are citizens with conviction compassion and courage. we all want a place to be privileged in and we want a place for the vulnerable.
for the first time in a long time, i feel proud of my flag.
