We often 4get how blessed we are
I was thinking of something Jas said...
"We often forget how blessed we are..."
I alwasy grouse about how stressed I am, sometimes it affects me so much, it makes me act like a bitch.. ( apologies ppl :P ) Jas pointed out that we had something in common.. we lived for exams... without exams around, we find outselves feeling lost.. as though someone had removed that direction sign and you're left at the crossroads of life. You don't think beyond the next exam paper.. beyond that big fat txtbook sitting front of you...
" The thing that makes a good doctor is how you can think on your feet," jas said. Sometimes, not being caught up with the details, trains you to become more adaptable.. Thing Rapidly Adapting mechano receptors.. :) . the details can help you score now.. but in a real situation, it doesn't really give you much of an edge....
It's hard to give up the details. it's hard to alter your mindset..i"ts even harder to realise that getting upset over this is just plain stupid.
We forget how blessed we are.
I've forgotten how blessed I am to have a loving, supportive family, a bunch of fantastic pals, the opportunity to study med, blessed to have enough ability to be able to memorise this heaps of stuff ( or part of it at least), blessed to have be given the opportunity to receive Buddha's teachings, to be able to enjoy singing, to play guitar, to doodle, to dance, to laugh, to meet all the ppl i have met.. to discover that there is much more to my world then there seems...
we're constantly craving for things.. and expecting that we should get them. Sometimes I crave for items that are juz plain impossible or plain uneccesary. And when i don't get 'em.. i get all down and out.. and i 4get about the stuff i already have.
It's not to say that one shouldn't push oneself. you need to be motivated enough to give everything your best shot.. but getting angry when you've already tried your best isn't gonna make matters better. I've gotta try to remember that. ... it's pretty awful of me when i end up ruining everyone's elses day when i'm in a bad mood ..
thanks guys for your support :P couldn't go on w/o these dudes and dudettes> :P .. like Reverend Miaoyu said... your frens are the petrol stops in your life. And mine constantly keep me at a full tank.. :D
