and I found another thing!
hey,
I guess life is just full of undiscovered things for me!
So.. I just realized.. All this time I was thinking “why take commerce?”
There’s nothing very …um… *can’t find the word*… humanitarian, noble, green peace, peace corp, kinda thing..
Anw, yeah, I have always thought “why do I take commerce?”
I’m not helping anyone, I’m not producing anything for the greater good of the humanity. There’s really no direct tangible result when you talk about commerce.
Like if you talk about doing Architecture or Design, then you know at least there will be some piece of art produced. A table or maybe a pretty dress, or some advertisement in a billboard or something.
But people are still doing commerce, and no one is making it a big fuss like I do.. So I thought, hmm, maybe as a person I need to “get” the meaning of what I’m creating to be satisfied with life.
Anw.. that was random, ciao for now!

I would agree that what Commerce knowldedge produces may not necessarily be tangible. However, in the modern world, intangible value may be more important than tangible stuff. It helps us allocate our scarce resources to best use (within human capacity).
With no commercial sense, an architect/government may propose to build an enormous airport on a scarcely populated village. The result? The airport is underused and costs a lot more to run than the revenue and benefit it delivers.
