Everyone Wants a Good Life ...

After a simple consultation, when the atmosphere becomes less formal..

Student A : Oh dear, I don’t think I can do mathematics or any science subjects.
(Her subject combination being Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics)
Teacher : Huh.. you just realized you can do better in Humanities?
Student A : Erm.. actually I also don’t think I can do Humanities? .. (slight pause).. (then, quite seriously) Sir, if you know of any rich old man, can recommend? I think life can be easier this way.
Students B, C, D : (Smiling in agreement… )
Teacher : . . . . . .

Examination is just round the corner and obviously, the *little pals are too stressed up and were dreaming of “钓金龟”. Haha..

Everyone wants a good life. I can’t help but to think, many people choose to equate the “goodness” with “materialism”. They witness with their own eyes, how the tai-tai-s can shop to their heart’s content and how the well-off gong-zi-s can provide superfluously to their better halves, etc. Wow..I also want. Haha..

But look around. How many people really belongs to that kind of tai-tai-s or well-off gong-zi-s categories? I’m afraid it’s not the majority. Yet life can be just as good for every single one of us. It’s up to us to define “goodness”. We can choose to enjoy and cherish whatever we are having now. We can strive to reach a higher goal, but please enjoy the journey at the same time, value the company walking through with us. In this way, our set goal if achieved is sweet ; if not, the journey itself will also be a priceless experience.

家财万贯，
可以买黄金屋，并不一定可以买到温暖的家;
可以买金枕头，并不一定可以买到甜美的梦;
可以游戏人间，并不一定可以得到真诚的爱。

一颗自在的心，便可叫人无处不快活。
我们的心“自在”吗？=)
