I just read my friend's blog, i pushed it all back to the very initial post of the blog. All the way back to 2008. I read it, the way my she wrote it, it's funny, it's like the way how i write it. Expressing every thoughts and emotions that come to us. when i read it, i feel happy, the happiness that the post bring me. It's a huge difference as compare to her 2011 posts. 2011 posts are so complex and in depth. i dun know why. but that's not what i gonna say.
I think as we grew older, we know more things, our thoughts become more complex, more problems coming up in life.We started to complain about stuff, expectation grew stronger and stronger. Stronger desire for the materialistic stuff. It really pushes me back and think, shouldn't we just look back to our life and see our simple it was when we are young. We have our parents, we have our daily meals, we have our daily play, nothing we worry.At that moment in time, we might be just 6 years old. So fun and playful. Life is like a new opening to us. So much to explore, so much to places that we want to wonder.
Does worries often get you frustrated? Does money matter been bothering you all the time? Have you comparing consistently all the time? Have money been your life goal? Are all your dreams about houses, car, cash, credit cards? All this are needs and desire of what we want in this world.
But look back a little bit more, when you are young...Mummy! i want this! Mummy, I'm hungry. Your mum get you food and stuff. Daddy! I want to go toilet! You dad brings you to the toilet and get your business done. As the bible always says, Children can go up straight to heaven, because they are the innocent one. Why only children? Because when we are just children, we know our identity, our parent give birth to us. and we do not about anything, live everyday life freely and easy. God want us to be like this. Bible verses stated, do not worry about your food, drink, what you wear, if you natural parent give what you ask for, what more from your heavenly father? Even heavenly father is wanting us not to worry about life!
I personally feel that why we desire more and more is because of the society system, you grow up, you study in primary school, you fight to get into primary school, its get into streaming in primary four, categorize in EM1, EM2, EM3.Your parents ask you to work hard, not to fall in the last category, you went on, secondary, work hard and fight for your own studies, got into O level, fight and stress yourself to go into the course you want in JC or Poly or ITE. At poly stage, fight and work together with the best team that is able to achieve the high score as possible as it is able to pull up your gpa. At least a 3.5 to go into university.
Workplace, Strive hard and perform yourself to get into high position, earn money, get marry and have children, worry about their study, money, housing property. Endless and countless of it.
Well, As long as you keep on to desire, your worries are countless, your stress level and anxiety and intensity are kept at high level. Why not take a step back and desire lesser, if no MacDonalds, what about food court? If no food court, why about some bread and water?.
Living in content, not wanting so much from the society, but getting back the joy from your heart. I know this post might not be able to express what i fully wanna say, i would like to end with this line,
The less worry and content of what you have, the happier you are, your mental health is always much more healthy and you are able to appreciate life more!
May this piano bless you deeply!
