The tourniquets in our lives

Regardless how knowledgeable we are, there are many things in life that we gotta learn. In this society, we based our judgement mainly on the surface. Unless explained, we'll never know why and how certain things happen for a reason.

Our interpersonal skills, the way we express ourselves, can be considered as one of the main qualities in which people gauge how successful and respectable one is. I was just reminded that not everyone have this quality in them.

I guess there're certain stuffs that can't be force, and there's certain stuffs that takes time to be adapted. No doubt that human are wired in ways that may be weak in certain qualities, but I believe we can always work towards it.

When still waters run deep.

I haven't been penning my thoughts down for the past few months. But since I guess today's the "last day" to live on earth, it's time to crack some cells and put my brains to work.

I've just been thinking about the word, "strive". This word, could mean 2 things. Either you're working hard to excel, or trying to make ends meet just to survive.

You see, we often strive for the things we desire and not so much for the things we really need. The society has taught us about the importance of reputation as an idol in our lives. Our lives are based upon pride issues, expectations from the society and other materialistic stuffs.

Such performance traps makes us overlook certain stuffs, and eventually living life aimlessly. It's really true that it's always the simple things we do in life that we treasure the most. That's because there's no materialistic elements in it.

What matters most in our lives are the stuffs that runs deep in us. Thoughts that we don't really show to the society. Something that we always yearned for since our childhood days. Those are the hopes that were dashed as we mature in this society.

Some scars are present in our lives to make us fall. But whereas there's some to make us stronger.
