The road not taken

I remembered many years ago, I had to read some poems for English literature time. One of it stood out to me. Though I did not remember the poet but till this very day I still remembered the meaning behind the poetry. This very day, I want to especially remind myself of it. "The Road Not Taken". For some of us, many of times in our lives, we had to make choices. Some more important than others. What should I eat for breakfast so that I don't get too full and get sleepy during work? What time should I leave for class/work? Should I take the car or the public transport today? What major should I choose? Should I buy the house? My situation might not be that big, but I do not take it the least smallest at all at this moment in my life. What kind of job should I be looking for? Will this job give me benefits? Am I going to be fulfilled from doing this? Can this job take me to better place? Is this what I want? Can I see myself doing this for the next 5 or 10 years? What should I do if i get laid off in 1 year? Can this experience help me find a better job? These are the questions running through my head. Compared to the professionals (engineers, computer engineers, lawyers, accountants, doctors, nurses etc)... I feel like nothing. Because my path, like the poem, is the road not taken. Will I be taking this road less traveled?

Suara hatiku


Hatiku rasa teramat pilu
Bagaikan ombak hancur di atas batu
Segala rintangan yang ku lalui
Untuk anda rasa bangga
Tapi
Segala ini hanyalah
Satu kenangan
Satu impian
Jikalau aku membina satu imaginasi manis
Untuk melupakan yang pahit
Segala ini boleh dilupakan
Bagaikan ombak hancur di atas batu.


p.s. satu dunia, satu impian

Congratulations little one. I'm so proud of you. Hang on there. You might not know what is your destiny now. But do not ever give up. If others can do it, you can do it too. And with an extra work, you can do it even better. And don't you ever fall prey to laziness. The root of all evil. Remember that whatever you do, keep being humble and kind and resourceful and continue to learn for knowledge is infinite. Also, whatever you do, you will have your family and friends by your side, motivating and setting good examples for you. Most of all, God is great! He guides you into something making sure you will be able to overcome it. With the love of the Father, no mountain is too high to climb, no ocean is to wide to swim across. The impossible is possible through the love of God.

p.s. Every experience God gives us, every person He puts in our path, is the perfect preparation only He can see
