Who you wanna be?
Someone told this story to me:
There is this grass patch. The grass seeds will stick on the people who walks past them.
A comedian walks past the field and sees the seeds which stick onto his socks. He laughs and say:”what great deed did I do to have so many followers?”
A poet walks past the field and sees the seeds which stick onto his socks. He then made a poem about nature and human interaction.
A poet walks past the field and sees the seeds which stick onto his socks. He then took the seeds back…… and invented the velcro tape.
So who do you want to be? The comedian, poet or scientist?
Can I be all 3? To be able to appreciate all things and happenings as they come by like the poet. To innovate, question issues and find solutions to problems like the scientist. And if I fail, to laugh it off and take failure in my stride like the comedian.

1) unless u learn how to appreciate what you have, you never be able to laugh off failures
2) whats a scientist who cannot take failure in his stride nor appreciate his work? a fustrated person
