Lessons in Life
Life.... what is it.. how to describe it.. I believe everyone exists in this world for a reason, but what? Are we here to find the reason for our existance? Or to uncover the mystery of life? Or to be taught lessons in order to appreciate life?
Ok NEXT.
I always believe that in order to enjoy life, you have to suffer first. You work hard, you'll get what you deserve. Be it in studies, at work or personal life, you have to put in effort and go the extra mile in order to achieve what you want. You just can't wait for things to happen, you have to make it happen!
Easier said than done!
I think i've learnt some things in life.
1. Just do it.
I guess Nike's right. If you wana do something, just do it. Make sure you have an objective in life and go for it. If you keep procrastinating and being indecisive, nothing will happen and all you left with is regret and awe.
2. Overdoing something will turn out the opposite result.
3. Never be too good to people.
Be good, but not TOO good to people. They will take advantage of you and climb all over your head. That's when your strength becomes your weakness. Be stern and hard when necessary.
4. Karma.
Dictionary definition: Actions with consequences.
Bible definition: You reap what you sow.
Do good things to people and do not expect anything in return. Do bad things to people and you'll have karma biting your ASS! I've experience karma alooooot of times! And majority are bad! It's kinda errie cos karma really exist. Well, you only get what you give.
5. Business is business. Personal life is personal life.
NEVER mix these 2 together.
6. Don't let your heart mess with your head!
It's hard i know.
7. Never count money during mahjong!
The more you count, the lesser money you'll have... it's true! Whenever i win, i'll count my winnings and at the end i lose! Suay! I've learnt my lesson.
8. Hard work without Luck is still useless.
You may have the best results in school, but if suay suay no company wants to hire you? You may be very good at gambling, but what if your cards are damn lousy? You may put in alot of hard work in a project, but what if all the credit goes to someone else?
"Lessons Learned".
" There's some things that I regret,
Some words I wish had gone unsaid,
Some starts,
That had some bitter endings,
Been some bad times I've been through,
Damage I could not undo,
Some things,
I wish I could do all, all over again,
But it don't really matter,
When life gets that much harder,
It makes you that much stronger,
Oh, some pages turned,
Some bridges burned,
But there were,
Lessons learned.
And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,
Everyday I wonderd how I'd get through the night,
Every change, life has thrown me,
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart,
I'm grateful, for every start,
Some pages turned,
Some bridges burned,
But there were lessons learned.
There's mistakes that I have made,
Some chances I just threw away,
Some roads,
I never should've taken,
Been some signs I didnt see,
Hearts that I hurt needlessly,
Some wounds,
That I wish I could have one more chance to mend,
But it don't make no difference,
The past can't be rewritten,
You get the life you're given,
Oh, some pages turned,
Some bridges burned,
But there were,
Lessons learned.
And all the things that break you,
All the things that make you strong,
You can't change the past,
Cause it's gone,
you just gotta move on,
Because they are all,
Lessons learned.
