Tragedy

Why do you work so hard? Why do you force yourself to go for countless tuition to earn so much money? Whatever for? You have not much committments. Why?

These questions I probably asked myself a million times. Why? I got no clue. I got no idea. All I know now is that I just go and teach as much as I can and earn as much as I can.

A lot of people work their entire lives for this commodity called "money" without realising that money cannot buy happiness in this world. Many equate happiness with money. Call me idealistic but I got some fair bit of money but I ain't happy. The more money I have, the more lonely I feel and the more I realise that money, indeed, cannot buy me happiness.

My married friend from NIE told me that he spent a lot of money on having dinner with his family. I asked why and he replied wisely that a lot of people are so unhappy that if he can buy his family some amount of happiness with money, why not?

He is the sage and I really hope that whatever I am doing today will bear some fruits because for now, that hope is getting thinner and happiness is non-existence....

me - passerby.

True. The more money I have, the more empty I feel. The expensive meal can never replace a cup of warm milo on a cold rainy night. End of the day, only you can give yourself the happiness. Not money. Not anyone. But you.

:)
