Self Reflections

I have this strong belief that we, as "decent" human beings should self measure ourselves every once in a while.

Reflect on ourselves, to see where we have come from, what we have achieved and become.


It's not about how much we make out of our careers, or how far we have climbed in the corporate ladder, or what car we have, or what house we have or how much we have in the bank account. Some will argue otherwise. I still believe that "SUCCESS" is the ability to do what one loves, and at the same time, touching other people's life the right and good way, protecting what is important in their lives - people that they love, and remembering and respecting their roots.

It saddens me when some people blinded by their own selfish needs in life, loses the bigger picture of what is important in life. And it saddens and angers me more to see other people who love them get hurt and taken for granted in the process.

We often don't realise how important it is in life to be "decent, honest, and self-sacrificing". And often, our selfishness tends to blind us in making the wrong decisions in life. When that veil of deception disappears, one can only hope that regrets are not too late. Some hurts cannot be absolved even with time. For one who lets it come to that stage, only god will at the end judge them. Harsh and grim as it sounds, I believe in Karma. Don't do to others what you won't want done to you.

Look in the mirror and ask yourself, is this the person that I want to become?
