I've Come To Accept That...
... everybody has dreams, but not everyone is able to realise
his/her dreams.
... some people just have everything going for them while the rest
can struggle through their whole life and come to nothing.
... the rich will be richer while the poor poorer.
... you may not like what you're doing now, but you just have to
continue with it because you have no other choice, and because you
do not dare to stray off the "normal" path.
... you may not like the path that you have chosen, but many a
time, you can't change it because circumstances do not allow you to
change it.
... there are people who have no idea what they are doing but will
eventually succeed in life, while those who think they know what
they are doing may eventually come up to naught.
... no matter what everyone says otherwise, looks does count to
some extent.
... those with pretty faces always seem to have it easier.
... there will never be total equality between the sexes.
... the intensity of our relationships with the people around us
change with time and environment.
... the person who was once your best friend may turn out to be a
stranger, or worse, your enemy.
... relationships (friends, love, etc) have to be carefully
maintained, like your precious car, otherwise they will become all
wrecked up before you know it.
... while you may think you have many friends, think again, do you
really?
... while you think you know a person really well, the truth may
turn out to be otherwise.
... you can never find a person who is 100% truthful to you.
... there are more hypocrites around you than you realise or wish
to admit.
... you can choose your friends but you can't choose your
family.
... all parents love their children, but to varying degrees for
each child. i.e. parents play favouritism, they don't love their
children equally.
... one should be satisfied just knowing that one is loved even
though one might be loved less than one's sibling(s) because there
are orphans out there who have never known a parent's love.
... the world will never be a better place as long as humans are
part of it.
... what is seen as progress may actually be a regression of
humankind.
... there are more things out there I do not know about, much much
more than the things I know.
... there are some things you do that others will think are sheer
silliness, but as long as you think they are worth your time and
effort, just do it!
... it is very hard to take care of everyone's feelings. Sometimes,
no matter how hard you try, the things you do will hurt someone in
one way or other.
... the saying "Money is not everything, but without money you have
nothing" is very true.
... simply accepting the dire situation you're in makes you a
loser.
... trying to change a dire situation does not necessarily make you
a winner.
... you just can't rush some things. If it's meant to be yours,
you'll get it eventually. If it's not meant to be yours, you'll
never find it even if you try hard.
... like it or not, there are some things you just have to let go
of.
... constantly looking back and thinking about what you should have
done and what you should not have done in the past brings nothing
but regrets. The more often you think back, the more regrets you
will have.
... we are always taught to look to the future, but thinking about
the future inevitably brings up the past and the regrets of past
that many are more than willing to forget. Like it or not, we will
always be stuck in this vicious circle of thoughts as long as we
live.
... even though I hate the way the society works, I still have to
live in it no matter what. I can't just go and die, can I?
... trying to solve problems by death is sheer escapism and a
totally selfish thing to do. While you might think all your
troubles have been solved with your departure from this world, you
have given the people around you nothing but more trouble and
grief, as though there is not enough to deal with without you
adding to it.
... things are always easier said than done.
... there are far too many things out there that you wish to change
but can't, so just accept it! That's life!
