People used to ask me "what you want to be when you grow up...?"...then the question got more specific as time goes by like "What you are doing right now...?" or "How many salary that you got...?"...i mean, since i was little, my family has given me the pleasure of "choosing" my own destiny...but as time crosses over, i can see that a lot of people are trying to influence my decision and wanna control my life....which is contradict with what I've been raised as...a lot of people with their own inhabitants and their problems tries to tell others "what to do" is quite funny (if you ask me)...because i know for the fact that all of us has our own issues to control...so it's better for us to focus on our own calamity instead of meddling with others affair...
Don't get me wrong...the reason of me writing this phrases is not because I despise them...looking at the bright side of this, those critics can be quite useful...if you know what to do with them of course... :-p Somehow, their existences has show me the way that I should look forward too...stuff like how you should behave...your cultural defects...and social traits can be easily highlighted once those people show you some eyebrows shades...hahaIf you look at the fact that what you really want in life is not going to be such a good thing, then the next stage is to follow the other's steps...and usually it sucks because those bushes are flatten by those people that wanted to go to that direction, but once you follow their lead, the destination is not where you wanted yourself to be...what follows next are not happiness...but more like regrets and depressions...but life goes on...and you need to live with the path that you "decided" to choose...but for how long you wanted to keep on lying to yourself?
The Check And Balance...!!!
If you got a high-payed job, then you need to sacrifice your time and effort...but if you got a low basic salary, then you bargaining power is low as well which lessen your options in life...Some people want the best traits of both world...and it does not come easily...getting into business seems the only way out, but not many are willing to take the risk, plus the capital required are also hard to get...Getting a job which suited your preferences seems plausible, but how many actually have the opportunity to be in the lane which they wanted the most? Life does play tricks and it keeps on rolling the dice until you yourself decided to stop and stare at your own trails and say to yourself "this is going nowhere..."Funny right? how you are told that life is full of wonders, but in the end, you are force to take the road that already taken and been praise by copying other people instead of being who you truly are...since i was a kid, my teacher told me that everyone is unique in their own way, but what she never tell me is that "people don't like other people that are different than them..." hence the race to be on top blinded many of us...in so many ways....sad isn't it?
The Lesson...!!!
Often people says that our young generation are the next to take over, and the truth is, will those veteran let us be? Words can easily compensate your judgment but often lies in the situation and reflection of the reaction towards anything that happen in front of us....the same goes to your surrounding and your judgment...i just hope that I can still be able to live in those fantasy world where good triumph and bad looses...everyone have enough to get by...no hunger or poverty...people always smile...and the happily ever after seems real enough to be trusted....Choices is what we have...and its the only ticket that Allah gives as a blessing to us...so we need to cherish it and use it carefully...many will judge us...critically criticize us...but they will never able to cloud our decision if we do not let them to be inside our head...that's the reason I choose to stick with whatever strength that I have left to protect my salvation and faith...for my sake, and others that tag alongside with me...
~We are who we are...no one else similar to us...and us is not similar to them...~
