something just came into my mind earlier this morning: "are
singapores' lives difficult or are singaporeans making their lives
difficult?".
in fact, this issue emerges every now and then, especially after a
hard day of work, to keep me occupied on my way to school or back
home..
there are always two ways of looking at a glass of water:
half-emptied or half-filled.
one should find himself more than contended, comparing how life is
like over in some third-world countries where it is a luxury to be
having a decent meal a day.
on the other hand, we are always taught to aim high with great
ambition, which at times deprive us the quality time to really in
sought of what actually complete and fulfill who we really
are.
someone told me, "just do what you interest most lor", which i cant
agree more. enjoying what you are doing is one method that u wont
find urself with too many regrets at the end of the day.
however, in reality, how many of us can actually achieve that? how
many of us have became or on the route of becoming pilots and
doctors as we claimed to be when we were young?
and this leads to another question: "why pilots and doctors? why
not bartender or musician?"
is it because these aint the popular and money reaping occupations
in this financial-oriented society?
all in all, are we really living a tough life or are we just
kicking ourselves in the teeth?
hehe... i know this thought of mine aint too complete, swerving
from left to right. but again, thats what chain of thought is all
about.
feel free to share how one thought of yours lead to another..
