Recently i was on the verge of purposelessness.After reading this u may give it a thought.A deep one at that!!!
Eccl1:18For the greater my wisdom, the greater my grief. To increase knowledge only increases sorrow.(NLT) looks like i thought too much.I really cried over the unfair episode that i though was taking place on me.My friend had passed his exams by means of last minute hard work and dead memorising (along with a complete understanding of Principles of Accounts.).He got into Temasek polytechnic.I got into a private school to re-take my O levels.
Then i wondered way off.There are some people who flunk acdemically,having gone through half of their lives with just a PSLE cert or O level cert,yet by perserverance made it big ans successful in their jobs.There were some i called "hoggers" who having gone through 19 years of education (from kindergatern to university) with smooth passes and promotions,yet after graduation they did jobs concerning their own passions and interests with no relevance with what they have studied.They just seemed to have hogged someone's oppotunity to enter into a poly or university and take the course that he or she wants.So what are they studying for ??U DO WONDER WHAT THEY'RE DOING.apart from getting aditional knowledge,is there anyway that what they have learnt is applicable to everyday issues? I'm a realistic strategist and i would just study something that really is relevant and appropriate to what i want.Not something that i realised i had no interests for and can't seem to find joy and satisfaction in.
The truth is out.Singapore is looking for creativity.If u have what it takes,and learn from relevant sources.U can find a job and excel in doing what u want,big scale or small scale i don't really know.What's most important is to do what u love to do.And excel.
One last thing.Don't ponder too much.It'll hurt u like u know how.Sorrows and depression comes.Solutions?
Eccl2:24So I decided there is nothing better than to enjoy food and drink and to find satisfaction in work. Then I realized that this pleasure is from the hand of God. (NLT)
