Successful life?
"What is a successful life?"
Honestly speaking, when my MUET teacher asked this question, the answer that pop into my mind was a good answer for the majority, not my answer.
I answered my teacher that a successful life is leading a happy life. While I was explaining what is a happy life to me, I suddenly realise that I wasn't answering the question truthfully. I am just giving an answer that everyone maybe hoping to have.
This made me to think about this question for 2 days. The essay that she requested for us to write I didn't evn touched it yet. There are reasons for me to dlay my work. That is:
1) I got many homeworks screaming for me to look through them. And if possible, FINSH them.
2) I can think of nothing. My creative juice seems to be ouot of stock for now.
3) I can't think what is a successful life.
Really! What is a successful life? Having a paper qualification? Well, that maybe one of it. But won't it be too dull? All your life you are chasing the same dream that others dream for. Are we programmed to do all these kind of things? Maybe, or maybe not. Maybe we just don't want to be an outcast in the society, we just follow the others footstep.
Leading a happy life? Really, when i answer this, I was a bit stunt. Because when I told my friend that leading a happy life is a successful life, I found the inner me saying, "What a lame answer. Do you really think so?" For others maybe true, but for me, I started to wonder. A happy life? What is it? Laugh and have fun? Don't know why, the inner me just don't accept this answer.
Until now I still cannot find an answer. Maybe my thoughts are not matured enough to think of something that deep and sophisticated. What a shallow person I am. Haha...maybe really, I am a shallow person...
I think I have praise this friend of mine for too much already. I don't mind saying it again...:D Recently I went to her blog and found out that her life was as meaningful as before. Whenever I read her blog, I can really feel that she was expressing the true person in her and she was expressing what we usually wanted....Well, girl, I have to say that if next time you change your mind in becoming a writer, please do remember to let me read your book first. As long as it is not law facts......I will faint if you ever present me any facts book...Science facts are already too much for me to bear....:D
