the winning mentality that was drilled into us since day one of our lives have made us really losers... BIG losers!
look at us today, we know of nothing except to chase for a piece of paper.... maybe 2 pieces.... we excel in our studies we want to get 9As.. 10 As... our character development and morale take second or third place....maybe even worst.
we work and work, sacrificing everything to get higher pay, climb higher on the corporate ladder. we want a bigger house...bigger then another bigger house. we want a nice car.... then a bigger car.... in short, we want to be up there with the whos who list..... we neglect our friends and families and our own well being.
when we drive on the road, we think only of ourselves. we don't care about other road users. we think that we rule/owned the roads....simply because we pay more road tax? drive a bigger car? "i am richer than you" mentality?
we miss out on little nice things around us, like a flower along the road... the chirping sound of birds in the morning.... smell the fresh air..... take things slower....
we forgot about life.
we forgot that life is fragile.
we forgot that if we drop dead at this instance... what do we get? nothing!!! we return to ashes...and dust.
a little kindness and humility goes a long way.
another useless thought
