Humbled

If you ask me what have I learnt over the recent years living alone overseas?
I will answer: I learnt to be small and insignificant.

Ironically, I once dreamt about overseas being a place where I could achieve my dreams and be someone different.
But upon graduating in June, I reflected on the past few years, and I guess I did the opposite instead.

I however did not regret any bit of it.
Because the experiences have transformed me into a very different person, and I like this person a lot. She is much happier.

I came to realise that everyone has their own role to play in this world, and their own path to head on.
One may be the leader of a multi-million company, but sucks in making friends.
One may be a great mother, but never a successful women.
One may be perfectly normal, never achieve one thing in life, but always a good friend, good son and good lover.

Different people excel in different things. And we all have our weaknesses.
No such thing as he is better, or she is better.
And never come to the conclusion that he is a good person, or she is evil.
People are simply different.

Perhaps because of different perceptions, we tend to judge from our own view, and here comes the 'good and bad' theory, and then the misunderstandings, the conflict, the war, the hatred.
Trust me, even selfishness has its explanation.

The more I learn and read, the more I realise how unimportant and insignificant am I.
And how humble should I be.

I am never perfect. And noone can be perfect.
No single person can do everything in the world.
There are always limitations.
And things that we can never control.
Then why bother control?

And because of this, instead of doing everything, I now choose.
Choose some and give up some.
Come on, you can't do everything right?
Let it go.

Let it go. Let it be.
Then I find things that I previously never pay attention to become very beautiful.
Life is happier if we admit that we are not that great afterall.

We are simply NORMAL. :)
And what's wrong with that?
