buddha teachings

it is really hard to draw a boundary between dreams and reality.

DREAM :
when you wanna achieve something that's really far from you, really badly : like.. getting into harvard ?

REALITY :
when reality hits: you realised you don't have the capability to do so.

so, when these don't balance out each other, all is left is merely disappointment. how sad that is.

but hey, i learnt something from the buddhist society event i attended yesterday:
i) your should be content with your life.
so if everyone feels content about their lives, where and how does the society
improve?

the following is the answer for the question above :

ii) the purpose in your life is to make the world a better place.

so you should by any means strive to make the world a better place, and be content with what you have achieved thus far (if you have worked hard enough)

so work hard folks, let's make this world a better place.



okay. enough of rambling, time to get back to my antiviral chemotherapy :)

p.s. i never wanna get into harvard, that was just an example :)
