Which is a better, an ordinary pencil, or an expensive pen?
The most common answer would be an expensive pen. And there should be no debate about it. The pen is more comfortable in writing, produces clearer strokes, thus making it easier even for the reader's perspective. But why did I ask such a question? Well, consider this. What if the pen is not being used but the pencil, will we still have the same answer? I would say otherwise. Because no matter how wonderful and state-of-the-art a tool is, if it is not being used, then it will still be useless. That goes the same with our potentials.
Future fulfillment or Future regrets?
We all know that we have different strengths and weaknesses. I am not gonna go with our weaknesses yet, that is reserve for another topic. As for now, let's deal with our strengths, for it will either bring us to success, or bring us regrets. So before taking a path, we should first know our strengths. Don't go to war and bring a firearm if you don't know how to shoot and all you know is to heal. Be a medic instead. You may not be killing an enemy, but you can heal those who can do what you can't do. It serves the same purpose, to win the war. We can all choose our path, all may lead you to success, but nothing is guaranteed in life. What we can only do, is to give our best in every endeavor, in every challenges we met, and struggles we encounter. If you love music, don't go the path of a technician. Be a musician. You may not make it in the world of musicians, at least you love what you are doing. If you fail in doing what you love, the more you will fail in doing what you don't love. As I have said, nothing is ever guaranteed in life. Just persevere. You will not know it, until you try it.
