MY OWN WAY
Hot 2 |
I’ve been depressed for several days. My limbs have been in pain, my head has been dizzy, and I’ve felt cold in sunny days. I could’t concentrate on anything.
I knew that nothing was wrong with me, the only origin was my elder cousin who had called me on some other day.
In the call he asked about how’s everything going on with me and my future, I was glad that he cared, for kin as we are, we are not very close from childhood. However, after I told him about my situation and my plan, he began to censure me for being too naive, and ask me to change a direction.
I really listened to him carefully and considered his words, because he has been living in Beijing for some years, with an admirable job, satisfactory salary and a well-off family. But afterwards I found that the way he wanted me to go was not fit for me. I felt so frustrated and began to demean myself.
After the depression, I decided to cheer up today. I told myself that my cousin lives his life, and have no rights to judge me because he doesn’t know anything about my life, my dream and my future. I will go as I planned, and face all the troubles by myself.

- Actually, I promised my parents to prepare for bank hires. The average salary in banking is charming indeed and more importantly, I have no an extreme desire for getting something, so I would have a try though there is a slim chance to be accepted. I am looking for my way along with my steps, and they always respect my own choice. That is really a beautiful song.

- One should choose his own way of life objectively and reasonably as you have done and not follow suit blindly. Nowadays it is a pity that most people have been disorientated by the external temptations like wealth, positions, beauties, etc. Driven by the motivation to be envied by others rather than looked down upon, they have become slaves who pursue these objects at the sacrifice of their independence and freedom. They live just for showing off and are paltry compared with those hermits in mountains. These recluses are really the happiest people in the world, who have got rid of the troubles that annoy us common people frequently for they have attained their inner freedom ignored by the conventional public.
