SO...got up at freggin' 7 AM on friday to ride the bus to school and finish my lab report...only to discover later on in the day that there wasn't anything due... -__-" ai yah...my life. I seem to be living rather carelessly these days with no particular aim. To those who strive to achieve great things, I admire how motivated you are. Nowadays I just look forward to the next episodes of Smile, You and You're Beautiful...sad, no? (but they're so good!! ... very recommended)
But what exactly are "great things?" When you pop the question to someone randomly, the first idea that'll materialize in their minds will most likely be the objective one...making a difference in the world...WELL, if that's the case, then I think everyone will eventually achieve great things...whether it be good or evil. From things like carbon footprints to volunteering to saving up pink Yoplait yogurt lids to sharing stories to saving lives, aren't those all impacts of some sort? ... and no, I'm not trying to cheer anyone up with this, but just bring to light what my thoughts are... so the next time anyone feels down about their purpose in life compared to other ppl's, they should remember it's the little things that count from time to time and that eventually build up to become the bigger impact in someone's life. That someone maybe someone you've never met before, or even yourself.
great post! i also feel that i have "no aim in life" compared to others. xD
ReplyDeletebut don't you think that people nowadays are way too concerned with succeeding and spend way too much time trying to climb a ladder that doesn't seem to have an end? i think it's perfectly fine to not achieve... ok, that's the lazy side of me talking... but whatever!!
