This could be a topic that i'm a bit too young to talk about, but still, i do have something want to share.
Life is a very interesting thing, different people got a extremely different interpretation. When same thing happen to different people, i'm sure they won't have a same reaction. Just like you treat your kids equally well, but it doesn't mean they feel the same, and most likely they though you loves the other one better than him/her. What really matter is how we see our life, rather than what life gave us.
Everyone have ups and downs, no matter who they are. We always trend to think "my life may not be the worst, but that's always someone better than me". Few weeks ago i talk to a guys who's now having an pretty good job, a lovely wife with 2 adorable kids. I though he must be very happy, and what he did should be something that his family can proud of. But he told me things doesn't happen that way, his brother can't see how much effort he put to support their parent's living, and his parent also seem not really appreciated how much this son did. They even thinging that he is taking advantage form them.
He even told me his school life when he was studied in Australia. His family mired in financial difficulty and ask him either withdraw form school or support his life and the school fees on his own (He still have 6 years to go). He pick the harder one -- he told me the first job he got in china town only pay him $5 AUS per hour (a can of coke sell in convenient store cost $2), and the longest time he didn't eat due to no money is 3 DAYS!
Some people said, if we got a chance to view our life and others life and choose again, we mostly pick the original one. I sometimes think, if something didn't happen in my life, what i will become. But it's meaningless since i can't go back and change anything. so why don't we just move on and do what makes our future better?
Is there anythings holding you from move forward? Worry? Fears? Responsibility? The real thing is "YOURSELF". Making change is not easy, but is not that hard as well. I tell you, i experienced that, i know how hard that is, but still, this is life, a set, with everything. And making change means you are moving into uncertainty. It might be scary, but if we know everything, there is no more fun!
We chinese, always said "8 or 9 things out of 10 in our life are not our wish", but what we have to learn is "always think of the 1 or 2".
