"Life is a journey, not a guided tour"
A simple and short sentence of only 8 words, but how many can truely understand the meaning of it? Was talking to daddy inside his room after shower, thats when this sentence came in. This made me think about life. It is true that life is not a guided tour, theres certainly nobody who can hold your hand and bring u to the right and safe places every day. Life is a journey, a journey just like when someone is climbing mount everest, he never knows what is ahead, when everything is so intense at that moment, when one realises how fragile life can be. To talk about the down side of life, is when ur tears flow, when u fall down from the stairs and bleed, and no one really cares. When u found out u're lost, all u can do is to get a map and start getting your way out of the maze, unless u meet the right person, who is going to guide u?
In all, whoever has the strongest mind, wins. The weak will on the other hand -continue to wander around the maze, or even worse, fall to death from the mountains.
I am sure this concept applies to everyone else, as quoted by the famous phrase "Life is like a roller coaster", its absolutely correct. One cannot be happy forever, nor can one be down forever. So its really important to enjoy the happy periods and strive through the hard periods. Just like in a storm; u really have to paddle harder and harder to go through it.
So what im really trying to say today is... Strong mind is what it matters.
