Competition.
By Rara - Tuesday, May 15, 2012
Some people see life as a competition. They compete with each other. Everyone around them are their rivals. They must be better than them, they must have what others have. When I say rivals, I don't mean they fight with each other, hate each other, no. I see some people, a really good friends, but still one of them is the "competitor". He (let me just use "he") just can't let others have something more than him. What for? My life is my life, I don't care about others. I fight with myself, I want to achieve my dreams, I will study hard. It's not like if my friends become a doctor, then I can't be a doctor. It might seem so, but still when there's a will, there's a way, no matter how long it takes.
Seriously.. It's really annoying. Try to see your life, review it, and think. have you ever thought,
"She goes there? I have to go there too,"
"She bought that? I have to buy it too,"
"She has it? I have to have it too,"
Money is not everything. You can't be happy with money, stop talking about money unless you're at the point of able to waste your own money.
I feel really pathetic towards people who's been exposed to compete with others since they were a child. A child as young as 7 is being stressed to get a good result in study? -..- a seven years old should go to kindergarten after school and play with the mud!! Play toys, ride a bicycle, run and chase the rainbow! Pitiful, huh? I'm glad that my childhood was so awesome that I could ride a bicycle and go to playground nearby with friends. I could say I played a lot. My academic achievement wasn't bad, too. Ahh, never mind.
I just want to say that, there are some people around me that I could tell they didn't really spend a good time during their childhood. Emotionally unstable, you know? Think of everyone around them is their rival. Again, rival and enemy is two totally different things.
Thank you Ummi, Ayah for raising me up normally, awesomely, I must say!! ;)
