Have you ever thought about what things will be like 10 years from now? I know I have tried to. We all try to imagine the best things for ourselves and our families, but what if it doesn't turn out that way? What if it goes the opposite way? Should we expect everything to go as we plan, or should we try to prepare for the negative as well?

As far as I know, (and I don't mean to be offensive or rude) everytime I see Alam Flora workers or road sweepers, I can't imagine myself being one. But I try to feel what it's like to BE them; to be in their shoes. Are they happy? Are they secretly pitying themselves? Or blaming themselves for not putting enough effort into studies?

It's so easy to just picture perfection but it's so hard to even think about failure. Maybe that's why we're so easily disappointed, because we set our hopes too high and they usually come crashing right down. Should we just expect the worst...?

Sometimes I find that I do half of the things I do now, is because I don't want to regret not doing it in the future. But, there are certain things I know that I'll definitely regret not doing. Yet, I can't bring myself to it because I'm afraid what might come out of it. It's hard making a mistake by accident, but practically knowing that you're in the process of making one is tragic. But I guess in a way, it's good that I'm aware of it. So I can change it while I still can.

Sorry all, for the depressing post. I guess this is what happens when you spend an entire Friday afternoon listening to sad songs about life. Kinda makes you ponder about things you don't usually bother about at this age.
