~ThaT's WhaT LiFe Is aLL aBouT~

Lesson in life can come to you at any time and at any place of the day. Say while you're watching some boring and crappy sitcom, while you're gazing up to the sky, while you're chatting with a stranger or even as you overheard people's conversation while queuing up for some hot chocolates. I was lining up for my Oreo McFlurry, when one of the women who was apparently stood behind me said something that really struck me hard...at the heart (well...I didn't earsdrop people's conversation though but the lady said it rather loud and I could not help but to overheard her words) "You can't have it all. That's what life is all about".

A textbook of common sense. A publicly agreed that it is truth and somewhat close to the complete fact that you cant always get what we want, no matter at times how badly we want it and willing to sacrifice our life for it. No? Well, I do believe so. You study hard, score straight A's in your exam, get great promotions, marrying your dream man/woman..then suddenly (oh how we hate the word suddenly in the middle of the story)..well..something bad happens. Get involved in an accident, being betrayed by your spouse or perhaps business partner, your children grown up to be someone that you don't even know anymore, going bankrupt...sounds familiar? Aren't they all some cliches? We've seen those in the drama and perhaps, in real life. Some people even live with those drama. They don't experience it by option of course, but they have to put up with it. It's part of who they are and where they come from. Spare me your sigh and complaints. Oh well, we cant always get what we want regardless the superb plan that we have with us.

But at times, it's allright if you can't get certain things. It makes you stronger, it makes you learn to be a better person. When we fail, we taste the bitterness in life, we become more careful in the future. We learn to stand tough and grown to be more appreciative towards the people and things around us. We start to count our blessings and learn to pray hard. Thus, although failures are frustrating, they are often essential in life. Lets face it for real. Success is sweet, failure is bitter. Too much sweet wont do you any good, yet, too much bitter will ruin your life. A balance for both perhaps? A bit more sugar or perhaps, some more coffee? I really have no idea! Something to ponder about. Take your time to think about it peeps. Pen-off.
