there is always a list of things you want to do in your heart. you want to be rich, happy, have lot of friends, buy a lot of things, eat of lots of good food, travel to many countries, get into a relationship, marry and have happy children. wow.. that's a lot but it is true. no one really feel contented with what they have.
learning to be contented is difficult. trying to be contented is also difficult. but i will try and learn to be grateful and contented with what i have and done.
recently, i read this story about this no.23 girl. She has always been rank 23 in her class of 40. not really bad but not good too. her parent wanna be proud of her but find it difficult. they forced to study and learn all sort of talent. to make her parent happy, she just listen to them and do what they want. then, she started to fall sick and unhappy. her parent realize it and let her go back to her usual routine. it was then they realise that she is just special in her own way. she told her parent that she once heard her teacher mention this statement: When hero walk past, there will always be someone clapping for him. (something similar to this, i cant do direct translation)
The main point is i wanna be the somebody to clap for the hero. i dont wanna be someone great with good career and blah but not happy with her life. i just want to be happy with what i have. it is simple life but still a blessed life that God has given me. i am able to do things i want and having support from my family and friends.
dont try to complicate your life and just go on with what it suppose to be. do the best in all things and even though the result dont match your effort. it is just suppose to be. you have give it all you have, there is nothing to regret about. so even if the world ends today, i am glad that i was once alive. i am glad that i have live my life to the fullest and nothing to regret. because there is no end to man's greed but there can always be a contented heart.
