Life and it's workhorse attitude...
As the weeks speed by like never before, I now pause and look at what's left before me. 3 weeks to be exact. 3 more weeks of intense school work and my polytechnic life is almost over. Scary? The last time I posted something up, I was fretting over how much I'm going to handle, and right at this moment, I'm halfway through.
This is life. A one way train that is always picking up its pace, never slowing down. A bullet heading in the direction of the crosshair, whether it's certain doom or a trail that never ends. Life is scary (at where I live).
Born into a world of endless chase, citizens struggle to keep up with the ever improving system. We are always studying, working, experiencing and learning. We take in everything we can whether we are able to handle it or not. Every opportunity that comes by appears to be another edge above the clutter. Even when we are sick, we drag our bodies to school, office, events and work. Work has taken over life itself. And we all cry out for the need to kick back and relax.
What exactly are we striving so hard for?
I'm sure you heard this most commonly used phrase at some point of your life: "Work hard and you will have a brighter future."
Familiar to everyone, this phrase sets the way we live. Hardworking individuals. Workhorses. Pumping Pistons that explode. We are always banging on with everything we've got.
But has the idea of working smart crossed your mind? What if hard work was no longer useful? Just look around you, everyone is working and burning their lives. You'll just remain in the clutter if you throw your head into it. But yet you still do it? Why?
Are we too afraid to break out of this system? This system of ever growing levels of limits? I'm a victim of this system too, but I hope one day, I'll pluck up enough courage to break away from it. And when that day comes, I'll read this post again and wonder why I didn't blog about this earlier.
I draw this posting to a closure with a phrase I said before.
With a common perception in the majority, comes a preconceived reality."
Our perception now is to work like horses. Maybe that perception will someday change.
Good luck!
