Stop Chasing

So I feel like redoing this whole blog thingy because I feel that it's just kinda messed up.Or maybe not.I feel that as we grow up,our mindset tends to change and I guess there are some pretty nasty stuffs that I have said in my previous blogs and I totally do not want to look back on them.But I thought that it would be totally fun to keep those as memories but if you're reading this,please note that you're probably like that when you were younger too.

Life is such a weird thing.

I mean it's like we keep chasing after things in life.

But why?

Maybe it's because without all these,life would be not fun at all.Maybe because we are made to live to have a life and learn things.

I bet many people(including myself) keep wanting what's best for themselves.We get jealous,not gonna lie.We get angry.We get sad.

Sometimes these emotions lead to something bigger than what it seems like.However,at the end of the day, I ask myself and I think:What's the point?What's the point of trying to be the best?What's the point of trying to get good grades?What's the point of fighting so hard to be recognised?What's the point of trying to be popular?

At the end of the day, I realise that these are just untouchable qualities that destroy the innocent us and all the hopes and expectations we have of life.

It is definitely not one of life's point of being overly-obssesed with fighting for glory.Okay so you make your parents proud,you feel that sense of pride and admiration from everyone.

But are you happy?

I feel that I mindlessly chase after my goals and I often neglect the basic quality of life.Happiness.

I get too engrossed in trying to be the best in everyone because I don't want to be the last one,the worst one.I feel that I'm such a lousy person who have no talents whatsoever.I can't sing,dance, play a sports nor cook. I've never been in a dance class, art class,music class nor in any sports activity.I feel so useless.I felt that the only thing I could ever do was to express myself and my feelings in the most undesirable way ever,speaking.Even so,if you ever say the wrong stuffs,people hate on you.So I learnt to shut up.

My only hope was on my academics,which wasn't exactly the best either.My life soon depended on it, trying to please my parents in whatever way possible.

Then I look around me. Isn't that what everyone is doing as well?What's the point then?I feel like this just turned life into a competition where you have to kill your opponents. 

So is this what you want the next generation to be?A place full of back-stabbers and sabotagers?

That defeats the point of having a life.If everyone could take one step back  and look at the real reason why we were sent down here for and be a little less competitive(I mean it's good as it motivates us but..),life will definitely be much more meaningful. 

If we all stopped chasing after happiness and let happiness come to us,you will live life more fulfillingly.
