During your childhood and teen years, everyone around you (espcially parents) will be bombarding you with words of encourage, asking you to do well in school, taking up extra classes such as music, art or dance lessons and some even willing to send you for tuition so that you're well prepare for yearly examination.
Then comes adulthood. For the past 24 years, you've been preparing for this. To graduate and get a decent job. Once you get a job, you're then expected to look for a life partner to get hitched. Once you get hitched, you must get kids. When junior comes along, you have to slough through work for the next 18 years just to make sure junior has enough to eat, wear, and go to college.
You then grow old. You expect your child to go through the same life cycle as you did.
Life is a rental. You mean I'm expected to live my life in that manner? Life is so short and I still have so much to do. Nothing last forever, nobody last forever. Oh my gosh which means I have to squeeze everything I need to do in this lifetime into such a short period of time. I might only have until 60 or 70 or maybe tomorrow to live by.
In my entire life there's nothing more annoying than people having to ask when I'm going to get married. This to me is personal and I don't need people nagging me about getting old and not have someone to be with. Or your life will be much more enriched with children. I mean which part of my sentence do you not understand? I said it's personal. Sheesh.
Really, I've got to take a break from all this. However society often shun upon those non-conformist.
Well, probably these quotes will do me good.
"There are no fixtures in nature. The universe is fluid and volatile.” - Emerson
"The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.” - Rabindranath Tagore
“Contentment is natural wealth, luxury is artificial poverty” - Socrates
“We tend to forget that happiness doesn't come as a result of getting something we don't have, but rather of recognizing and appreciating what we do have.” - Frederik Keonig
Wham!
I'll just stick to my own principles. Smirk.

First of all...FIRST POST!!!
Second of all...I always say you gotta live life to your own beliefs and ideals.(or something to that effect) Cause in the end it's only you answering for how you lived your life.
So let people say what they wanna say and you do what you wanna do.
Garrrryyyy.
Welcome onboard ;)
Precisely. Life is so bloody short!!!How can I waste it on pondering on some comments and conform in certain ways just to fit others' beliefs.
Welcome back to the net.
