这辈子至少觉悟这一次

(以下不是本人的作品,而是本小姐觉得蛮有趣的一段写作)

每个人都要过他的一生,但是人的一生为的是什么?

大多数的人都像一群跑道中的跑者,却不知道自己要跑到哪里?要跑去做什么?甚至跑到人生的终点死了,还不知道自己这一生为的是什么?

而像江河中的一滴水,随波逐流跟着大家走,于是在途中,别人跑的比较快就伤心嫉妒;别人跑的比他慢就得意洋洋。

有时候他跑累了,想停下来休息,但看到许多人飞快地超过他,他又身不由己地追上去。这样跑啊,跑啊,直到累死为止。

这是漫画家蔡志忠所写,关于人生意义的一篇文章,很发人深省。

是啊!每个人既然都会过完一生,为什么要用跑的?要跑到哪里?要跑去做什么?这问题你想过吗?

你也许会说:是为了追求理想,目标,才不断追赶;是因为要快点到达,所以才用跑的。但是你有到达吗?

不,没有人真正到达,即使你已经越过了许多人,但是不管你在哪里,总有人在你前面,也总有人在你后面,为什么呢?因为所有人都是绕着圈子在跑,你看到有人在你前面,就以为别人先到达了,以为自己跑得不够快,于是就更加快脚步,其实大家都只是在绕圈子。

我们就和那些蹬着小铁笼子不停转的小老鼠一样。老鼠的小毛腿蹬得飞快,小铁笼也转得飞快,可是第二天早上醒来,他们却发现自己依然困在老鼠笼里。

着小铁笼代表的不单是每一个人追求的理想,目标,同时也代表我们生命中发生过的各个事件和问题。轮子每转一圈,便会重来一次。

你有跳出那个铁笼吗?还是只是不断地在绕圈子?

觉悟就是跳出那个铁笼,只有跳出来,你才会发现:原来那是一个圆圈,别人是在绕圈子,而你也跟着绕。

这些年你都在忙些什么?是否应该静下来想想:你要跑到哪里?你要跑去做什么?(你要的是什么?你有得到你想要的吗?)

知道自己要什么,才不会随波逐流,你可以不必理会跑的比你快的人,因为你有你要的,别人有别人要的。

知道了生命只是一再重复的模式,你才能有所觉醒,接受变化,并转化为面对生命各种情境的智慧。

我们努力的一切都是为了让自己幸福快乐,这是努力的目的,不是吗?但是你的努力有没有将你引至这个目标?还是愈离愈远?

这觉悟能愈早愈好!

HELLO :)

Hello people of bloggers! It has been way too long since the last time I blogged.
The past few weeks had not been easy for me because i'm having my final test for my 2nd semester study -.-
But here I am, now, with all the time dan energy--that is not so much in use-- 'cause I'm in the middle of holiday and I've got nothing to do, so I thought 'why not take care of my blog'

Okay, so I'm gonna start with what I'm doing today 'cause it has been a quite pleasant day for me and I also bought some things for myself .
Today, i woke up at 1.30 p.m. so practically I've passed half of my day doing nothing but sleep
After doing some routines -- take a shower, eat my brunch, watch television-- I decided to go buy a wallet I saw last Saturday at Palangkaraya.
(And oh yeah, today the traffic was crazy, jams everywhere -.-)

When i finally got there, I park myself somewhere within walking distance to the shop then went straight to the shop and eventually I bought 2 wallets, and a pack of 3-in-1 purses. The purses and one of the wallets are red :D

Then I drove myselg to Grand Palladium and went straight to the bookstore, Gramedia.
There, I bought 2 books with a nice cover. I disagree with the saying "Don't just a book by its cover"
Hell with that saying, I mean, if you're not even interested by the cover of the book, you wouldn't even bother to read the texts inside, right?
Both of the books are in Indonesian of course, but one of those is a translation from a chinese novel.
I'm not a great fan of local literature, maybe I'm just not nationalist enough, but what else can you expect from an Indonesian born Chinese

And then I went to my auntie's to  grab some food for my dinner and went back home to take a shower and spend the rest of the day at home and write this post

Below are some of the photos :

Dillema :|

you might say that i'm standing at the crossroad of my life. i've been recently strucked by a thought of moving to Penang, lovely small city in Malaysia.
 it's not a recent issue actually because my family (my dad in particular) had also considered to move to Penang but not in the not-so-long future, but maybe in the next 5 or 10 years.
by that time, i should have graduated from uni and my dad should have retired.
and so we planned to start everything right from zero there.

but, like what I've said above, i was struckedby a thought yesterday to move there maybe next month or next two months.
because it would be much comfortable later for my dad and my sis if i've already been there for a period of time.
if i didn't move there immediately but after my gaduation from uni, it would be hard for mo to make friends with people since i'm not studying in highschool or colleges anymore.
but, it would be a whole different story if i move there in the not-so-long-future.

even so, it is not without consequences of my choice to move there, it means that i have to let go of my study in my uni (I'm currently an architecture students) and i think i am doing great in my area of study, of course you can't say i'm the best but i'm learning to be.
i would have to start from the beginning(zero point) if i really moved to penang.
so now i'm really faced with two very different choices. but anyhow, life is full of choices, and we must learn to accept that well or we'll be eliminated by this world.

it is not that i don't love this city, Medan. i've been here my whole life, how can i possibly dislike it.
but the atmosphere in penang is completely a different story, it's so carefree, without any pressure or stress.
it has been our family's dream to immigrate ther.
some people might underestimated Penang, saying it's just a small city at the seashore, but i still loved it anyway.
so, the conclusion is i'm still confused about which decisions to take. please leave some comments, okay guys?
