at times
things just made me ponder about the meaning and fairness in life
fairness
on a very basic level from a normal and sulky teen point of view
one side of me find it really unfair that some ppl are just born richer than others
they do have more opportunities to maximise their potential with all those extra classes and etc
well with money
almost everything can be done easily for them
isn't it?
haha funny
but the other side of me will counter this view
everything is largely dependent on yourself
not an external factor = money in this instance
you can be damm rich
but if you just don't have the drive to stretch yourself and step out of your comfort zone
no amount of money can help you
agree?
and i feel that ,from experience
not being rich or well off will help to develop such drive
cause we are mostly near the edge of our comfort zones, we have the drive to constantly step out of it and work harder
isn't that so?
the principle that applies here is that
not having something, makes you want to work for it, and so at the same time, gain more than what that thing gives you=experience and passion
well thats a rather simple theory that applies to almost everything in life
okay i shall give an eg
you really want a laptop (for practical use)
if you're born rich (luckily or unluckily)
you'll get it easily enough most probably, and in a few days?
but if you are not and of below average
you'll have to take up a job and work hard for it
maybe you'll take 2 months or more?
at the end of the day
surely in both cases you'll get what you want(laptop)
but the journey taken and the actual value of the laptop is very very different
something that is exchanged with your few months of hard work and sacrifice
and which allowed you to make more friends along the way
and at the same time gain so much more knowledge about the society and understand the difficulty of earning and the importance of saving
will certainly makes your bought laptop worth more than the $1300+ you've paid for it
i hope i make sense to you
because it's really important to make wise decisions
and decide what life you want to lead
and to control your fate, not letting it control you
hope this helps
^^0309 class chalet is really wonderful for me even though i must agree that we din do much
everybody is just great and the environment is good (even though we are just beside the old hospital) i like the relaxed atmosphere
you know the slow paced life
of not rushing here and there and missing out the details in life
which are insignificant to us but actually matters alot
i rate 3..5to4 stars :D
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
once you missed that opportunity
once you had let it down
once you neglected it
that door will just close slowly
in the future
even if it does opens itself to you
it will not be the same anymore
it won't be filled with that same old feelings
it will just be a small crack to remind you of the past that you'll regret
opportunities they are there
but don't missed it
because they won't be a second chance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
first impressions?
or i should say surface impressions
they matters
people will judge you by them
but those good impressions will just shatter when you decided to know more about him
never judge a book by its cover
no not only the cover,
i should change the phrase to don't judge a book by its cover and its synopsis
haha
you have to read the entire book to determine if its a good one
we people are like books
haha
*everything that i've said its just my opinions, its not absolute. i hope you're matured enough to understand that i didn't mean such cases are true in all situations and at all time* nth personal too
