Perspective.

Recently I've been listening to different stories from different people. I have to admit I really enjoy listening to different stories, maybe I've been "well-trained" to be a listener since young. Through the different stories shared, you really see how people with different background deal with different matter. How your background affect the way to look at the same matter and the method you may use to solve it. I  think this is definitely beneficial to me, kind of open up my perspective i guess since my life have always been smoothing sailing and I don't have to worry much. I think my happy-go-lucky life attitude always make my life so much easier, always try to YOLO and live life to the fullest since I wouldn't know what would happen tomorrow. Looking at how some people out there are actually planning ahead in their life, having a determined goal seems to knock on me hard, "what do I actually want in my life?" I remember how i will tell my mum I want to become a housewife when I grow up and I aim to get married by 24, having 3 kids, but well is that what I really want or is this really a realistic goal? ANYWAY, I DON'T EVEN HAVE A BOYFRIEND SO THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE. *cross out* And my main aim to study till now is really my mum, I want to finish my university studies so that I can support her when she is old? It may seems to be a super useless aim in life but that's what I have in my mind that is related to my academics result. Well, another goal I want to achieve is to widen my social circle? That's probably another small small goal, but seriously life isn't going to be that long right.... hmmmm... just saying. 

I believe not everyone starts on the same starting line, some people just have to walk a longer route to become "successful", some just take a much shorter route that make people envious and stuff. However, like my "life philosophy" , it doesn't matter if you take a longer route as long as you get to the destination. The journey may be hard, it may be tiring but it makes a stronger you and the "scenery" and experience is the reason why the longer journey is worthwhile. I always think I probably didn't really grow up in a very good environment, dealing with different emotional issues but I agree to the part about advocating changes, you be the change you want to see and make a difference in the way you face matter. Sometimes I really get amazed as to how I see life in a positive and optimistic way. But seriously, if you don't life do get really really tough. You mentality and the way you face it totally make a 180 degree difference you know! Ok, I think i'm getting a little philosophical at this hour but yeah, habits of mind " thinking about thinking". I probably should start thinking what I really want in MY LIFE.
