In my heart there'll always be a space
What makes life really happy & fulfilling? Well, definately not Mickey Mouse or a perfect doll house. Everyone defines it in a different way because there're different things that makes their happy pill. I asked people & I got replies like the right someone to love, lots of money, streess-free, holiday(ing), shopping & such. To sum up, enjoyment. But what makes you happy may not be what that makes your life fulfilling. & vice versa, what makes life fulfilling may not be what makes you happy (& feed your enjoyment) Of course I love enjoyment but some enjoyment don't make your life any more fulfilling (& worth living & proud of). Guess it's kinda tough to get both. & I'm unnerved by the fact that it's tough so I'm thinking how I can get it both in place.
Mrs Tan is a cool teacher & I'm such a cool student cause we talk bout the little prince & life. We dislike crossroads/changes & maybe have different perspective of happiness but I guess afterall, we're feeling women (I think I'm not a girl not yet a woman) who would love to make our life count & hopefully to share part of it (maybe not to the world) but to people around us. I hope I got this right. She got me reminded me & got me thinking. Well actually I am quite afraid that I'll fall into the damn trap of growing to become an adult (teenage struggle). Forgetting life's simple ideas forgetting who I am; what I should be, forgetting to follow my heart, living to the man-made belief/standards that determines who I am. Ruining happiness & fulfillment just to live/fit into this superficial world (we all know there's something wrong with the world today we're living on the edge). Oh Lord let your glory fall.
"For millions of years flowers have been producing thorns. For millions of years sheep have been eating them all the same. And it's not serious, trying to understand why flowers go to such trouble produce thorns that are good for nothing? It's not important, the war between the sheep and the flowers? ...suppose I happen to know a unique flower, one that exist nowhere in the world except on my planet, one that a little sheep can wipe out in a single bite one morning, just like that, even without realizing what he's doing - that isn't important? If someone loves a flower of which just one example exists among all the millions and millions of stars, that's enough to make him happy when he looks at the stars. He tells himself, my flower is up there somewhere. But if the sheep eats the flower, then for him it's as if, suddenly, all the stars went out. & that isn't important?'" - The Little Prince
Some food for thought yeah (Mrs Tan!)?
