I always
thought I had it in me to change the world. I have always been cynical to the
rich in school. I may have been jealous, heck, I really did. ‘If I had the
money, I would give it to the poor,’ I would convince myself otherwise. I don’t
know, today, I really ponder that maybe some indulgent habits have caused them
to shoot themselves in the foot. Maybe, life isn’t black and white after all. ‘Imagine
if I was the President, I would allocate funds to our infrastructure, our
education, our local businesses,’ these are the tales I would tell myself too;
except, reality is different, those things takes time. Time: a commodity our
current electoral systems circumvent.
I do regret
a few decisions in my life. I should have applied for higher education. I was naïve.
$40,000 in loan debt for university courses is alarming. I was scared. But
then, I heard that professional jobs pay well. I have heard that graduates are
jobless too. Frankly, I have heard many things. ‘Do what you love,’ ‘just be
yourself,’ ‘everything happens for a reason,’ ‘don’t sweat the small stuffs,’ ‘it’s
fine, everything will be alright.’ They need to stop. I think there’s so much information, little
truth.
