Eager young minds

This morning, a boy I met in Ampang texted me to have a chat. So at at 950am I drove to Ampang using the new DUKE Highway. I read it in the newspaper and it is supposed to shorten the time from Damansara to Ampang. WTF... they were right!! I got there at 10.15am and i was driving so slow because I just woke up. And no traffic jam. DAMN! This is a miracle highway. RM2 for toll is good bargain for no traffic jam and less time which means save fuel.

OK so I met this boy, 18. He said he has a problem so I hear him. I was quite suprised that most of his problems is what I had in the past(probably still has but is now controlled). Problem with parents, problem with girlfriend, problem with life purpose. I am now in an age where I have sorted out most of my problems and control myself more. I must admit that when I was younger I just do things main hentam and I like do do things my way and I hate rules and tradition and manners. I was like, 'Screw authority or all this useless manners and rules, all I care is my ideology'. I was so naive then.

So there I was in front of this boy who faced the same situation. Actually, a lot of young people had what I experienced when I was younger but maybe because people around me care so much about me, I feel like I am the only one with the expectation to solve the problems. I may be slower to solve it than some of my friends who matured faster than me but what I am thankful about is that I have encountered so many sort of problems that I am sure will be useful for me in the future.

I am like Arsene Wenger altho I am a Liverpool fan and my dad is a MU supporter. I like new things, new ideology, new lifestyle. I prefer to do things with less effort which made me lazy. I prefer winning beautifully than winning ugly. I prefer intelligence over brute force. But I realize, we need to work hard every day to even smell the scent of perfection.

So I have changed. I have accept that I could not be perfect. I have accept that we can win and we can lose. I have accept that things that you work hard for is sweeter than things you get without effort. But this boy, not yet. Maybe he will listen to me and take my advice. Or he can experiment it like what I did and suffer like I did and finally learn.

I am like a cancer survivor who wants to help other cancer victims. I am sure I want to help this boy any way I can. I think this is what is meaningful. Everything means much more when you are doing it not for yourself but for OTHERS.

Cheers^^
