this is the Polaroid Board so far..
we are 8 months and counting.. :)
this week, a professor sat me down and talked to me about happiness.
he went on to say that he would put money down and wager with me
that i would become a very successful person in 5 years time.
"you have all the qualities it takes.." he said.
" you are in the top 13th percentile right now!" he said.
all these, to encourage me to be happy in life.
to enjoy learning and studying as i complete my last year @ NUS.
to take away all the stress on my face that appears evident to him.
this was truly unexpected.
but it has left a deep imprint in my life
as i begin taking a new perspective of life and
find joy in the simple things that money can't buy.
Nietzsche once said:
"He who has a why to live for can bear with almost any how."
Indeed,
if HE is my WHY,
then why do i need to worry so much about the future?
It's all in HIS hands.
my career path, my salary... etc.
and no,
our WHY should not be found in any other relationships
except the one we have with God.
with God in the center,
everything else falls into place-
nicely.
so,
where is your happiness from?
