early?

it must seem a little early to talk about achievements and the yet to be achieves. Too early still, since my birthday (and that is when people get a little more cranky and way too deep to be of any good to themselves) is only arriving in when Feb is half month old.

tell me about your achievements and what you yearn to achieve in your life. tell me what is the best part of achieving. is it the celebration after, and the satisfaction of proving yourself? Or something greater?

tell me, did your satisfaction cause someone's sorrow? No? think deeper.
tell me, did your satisfaction's meaning last longer than a day? a week? a month?

the things in life, we get satisfaction from is sadly very material and all so temperance. taking aside the fact that it is more often than not a cause of someone else's misery, it is still a stumbling block to our minds and heart.

How many of us can see through the webs of deceit wovened by society, thicken by lies massaged by time and human error into values spread from parent to child? how many of us pray at the shrine of merit and think that cleverness is a virtue greater than any other?

sure, smarts and cleverness will bring you greatness, get you far in life and guarantee that you sleep in a bed of wads of cash. but when the party ends, and your friends leave, do they bring along their rubbish? Do they leave you in a cold?

When will people realised that the only thing worth pursuing in life is the better-ment of ones own character and helping other realised that?

is it early? no.
it is most likely late.
when will you achieve it?
