live life to the fullest.
define fullest.
tell me, how full is full?
its so subjective.
i think its saddening when i actually sit down and start thinking about my life.
assuming i have a stable job with a stable flow of income that is enough to support myself and my family.
and then, what comes next?
the daily routine.
i go to work every single day and i start earning more and more.
and more
and more
cos really, it's never enough and it'll never be enough.
in short, im just going with the flow. i do what most are doing, working their heads off to make ends meet.
and at the end of the day, if i were to ask myself about something meaningful ive achieved in my whole entire life, my answer would probably be.
"well, ive managed to have a loving family and a stable income."
im not saying thats something i wouldnt want. its something almost everyone or i can just say, everyone wants.
but i want something more than just that.
how many of us actually have the courage to step out of the norm and do something different?
something like to go backpacking around the world.
or to make a difference in those third world countries.
answer is, not many.
seeing how the people in those third world countries actually survive with a mere dollar a day makes me feel damn lousy. especially when my ONE MEAL costs like more than a dollar. or even worst, just a bar of chocolate to simply satisfy my craving (not to fill my stomach) costs more than a dollar.
i think life will be so much more meaningful if one could actually head down to those countries to build them a proper simple home and provide them with some funds.
really, just that alone would make a hell big difference to MANY of their lives.
then again, i need to snap back to reality.
that is simply far much easier said than done.
sighhh.
life should be something more than just this.
