Let us never lose the lessons we have learnt

After a conversation with one of my was-not-so-close classmate, another fact was established – we’re forever paying every due throughout our lifetime. There is a saying by Chinese that humans have to go through four inevitable processes which are being born, ageing, sickness and death. Precisely, we’re actually having things to worry everyday; when a problem is solved, another one comes right after it. Our life is more to solving problems than living a life generally.
Ironically, regardless of one’s attempts to do good for months or years, it does not reduce the amount of problems coming up before himself or herself. The issue here is, I’ve seen enough of “good” people in my life, and they ended up without getting what they are deserved to get, you know the examples. I was inspired to write this post by a song called “No one but you (only the good die young)” by Queen (which is my favourite band), indeed, the good one or the talented one dies young.
By being able to read this post, you should have gone through millions of problems and dilemmas. The strong one survives and the feeble one dies, this is very true as you can see people are suffering from emotional breakdown and bankruptcy due to their loss of composure after going through all the ordeals. As a result I can see how people have changed to adapt to their situation which don’t really serve as a remedy at all. They changed to a more gloomy, pessimistic person who I can’t recognize them any more.
People tend to put the blame on themselves when they are going through hardships, here comes the chasm, they will then develop a prejudice towards everyone, friends and family are not exception, even themselves. If I put myself with my peers, they certainly have not experienced and understood what “unlucky” is, as I’ve gone through the worst (yes, I’ve had the worst). But the irony is I did not get too carried away nor lose my composure after the “worst” happened to me, instead I carried on with my life as if nothing had happened, well maybe I’m granted for that.
Here’s the words today – A life may end, but mishap won’t. One’s problems can only be defunct when he or she dies whereas problems will be never ending. Hence I don’t see any reason one should collapse or be perturbed by incoming problems. The world won’t stop for you, therefore if you choose not to move on, you’ll be inhaling and eating other’s dust behind.
