望子成龙, 望女成凤.
Wàngzǐchénglóng, wàng nǚ chéng fèng
Every parents hope their children will be a succeed person.
Their male child will be like dragon, their female child will be like phoenix.
But, how many children really succeed in their life? Especially in this modern society, this 21st century world is very high demanding, high class.
Everything in daily life is so expensive. Everything is so high tech. Everything need to be pretty and beauty which need to groom up and need money too.
Successful life shouldn't be measured by money, by class or level in the society.
Is the internal values of the human character that count. But our recent society is indeed very demanding.
No beauty,
No handsome, you are out.
No money, out too.
No sense of humour.
Not a chatter box...
No car, No house,
No awesome guaranteed job and pay...
No this and Not that...
All the
No and
Not will keep appearing in my mind to vent it here.
To sum things up, succeed is very wide, and is depand on your own definition of succeed, you don't have to measure it with material.
Even you have a RM10 is more to others who have RM1. So stop compared with those who have million and billion of money.
Other may have big car, a house but you should be grateful you have a shelter to shield you against wind, rain and sunshine.
Other all have marriage life with beautiful wife, handsome husband, with cute little babies, and you should be happy you have family too, you parents, siblings, if you don't you still have friends, if you don't have 1 friend is okay, you still have God to love you by sending Jesus to be with you, guide you.
Other have beautiful clothes but do you know there is more outside there who don't have anything to wear.
Be thankful you have 3 meals a day although is not seafood, or great buffet dinner everyday, as there is more who don't even have a meals for 3 days.
Other still searching for job while we keep complaining how tough and stressful our job is and was.
Other is sick need to be hospitalize, comatose they wants to walk also difficult but we ignore our health and once a while we have a marathon to show off with selfie or do some heavy work we complaining tired, legs was in agony this and that.
Ohh...he or she is more handsome /prettier than me, but do you know there is some who were born handicap, more pitiful than us.
So and so kids, get 100% in exam, why my kid so stupid only have 98%. But do you know there is more kids other there who don't even have changes to attend school, who don't know ABC 123.
So stop comparing yourself with other because there is no ending to everything. Succeed is when you think you are.
