Sunday, March 15, 2009do u think it's true? that u can't have everything in life.
i strive to improve in many things that are happening in my life. not just the material aspects. how to be a better daughter, friend, sister, colleague, girlfriend. truth be told, many a times i'm disheartened because i try so hard to reach out but all i get is nothing and rejection.
i'm building my career, hopping along the pebbles that lay infront of me, hoping to reach where i want to be soon. but sometimes the pebbles disappear and the future seems a lil dimmer.
i think along the way of acquiring what i'm very happy with today, i've unwillingly lost many things. which has been making me feel, for some mths now that u can't have everything in life.
and every now and then, i would see someone more successful than me. she is a better daughter, a better friend than i could have been. i would feel like i've fallen behind my peers; successful careers that comes with the equally successful paychecks, designer handbags, close knit friendships, perfect hair/outfits/relationships... the list goes on.
and so, when i've tried hard enough and put in enough effort but get no returns, i'll tell myself that u can't have everything in life.
do u think it's human nature to deceive ourselves? we believe what we want to, and we lie to ourselves to redeem our emotions.
