Worth Walking

It is not easy to go through our lives.  Life is NEVER easy.

Some may study so hard to get higher pay in the future.

Some may do it to achieve their dreams.

Some may do it to gain knowledge.

I am the first category person.  I do not like to study but I neither like work too.
I chose the easy way-STUDY-to fulfill my parents’ wish, to make them proud, to let them watch me graduate with excellence but what do I want, actually?

Just before I start my new semester in university, a good friend of mine asked me out and told me about a story. That story has changed my view for life.  I realized a simple life is not easy to live.  He told me, everyone is working not for family or loved ones, but for MONEY!

He makes me realize that working for money is not the only way to repay my parents.  He makes me realize that money can buy time to spend with our loved ones.  He makes me realize that people do not have to retire at 56 years old, but retire at the age of 25-30. It is amazing and UNBELIEVABLE!

I want to follow his way of success, besides studying well to make my parents proud!

I know, this is not an easy journey but as I know, no road is easy to walk on but if it is worth walking then I will WALK until the end.
