Still remember in one of my conversation with one of my church friends, we talked about our study and future. Mentioned about parents and family, I'm sure that's a lot of things that speaks to me in the conversation. My friend, who still new in facing the society, said that the course she is studying isn't the course she really like, in fact her dad is a bad tempered man, that's a course her dad wants her to take. She accepted it, just wants to please her dad and make her parents happy.
Once, I was a little girl like her too, thought that things will be okay as long as I finish the course my dad wants me to take, I'm free to choose my career. Well, it doesn't turn out like what I planned and what my dad planned. I quit school, I dance, without really knowing what I can do with my dance in future.
She said: '' Helping my parents itsn't the thing that moves me to study.'' And I thought the same way too before. I realize wearing formal suits and giving high amount of money from part of our salary isn't the best to honour our parents. It is much valuable to love them by spend time with them instead of fighting to give them the best materialism we can give in life.In the period of my 'relative war' after I quit school, I remember I told one of my aunt, "What's the point if daddy holds my graduation cert, feels so proud of it and keep showing off to others but his own daughter can't even feel bit of happiness for it?'' I believe that, people live by faith, not by sight. Love should be the thing we fight for, not barely on what we physically see and feel; no matter in what area our passion leads us to.
Free yourself from other people's will, search for the love and all things will be given to you. :)
