Don’t follow the majority, but shine in minority.

Living in this world has been sometimes I consider a terrible mistake, growing up for how many years with the mentality that you have to follow the pattern of the world, you have to be somebody to be part of the trend, to dress up like a doll and its plasticity, where people are more concerned with the number of likes they got in Instagram, more obsessed with the way they look, where beauty abuses its power, patronizing various products and services to fulfill their fleshly and worldly desires, making standards in differentiating the word ‘beautiful’ and ‘ugly’, a place where sex is just a trend, measuring ones intelligence on how efficient one to use such languages, defining someone’s worth through mistakes, using numbers to label someone’s value and above all, living in this unfair world where people try their best to be perfect.

It’s sad to think all of those things. When I was a kid, I always thought that life is full of rainbows and sparkles. But as time goes by, I was wrong. I realized that life was not like that, life was actually full of thunders and storms, but despite of that sad reality, I learned to dance in the rain. I learned to not be moved aways so easily, not to quit unless I’ve tried. Because if you think that everything seems not going right, stay still and know that there is someone who had loved you even if everything is against you.

I had failed many times and fell down everytime, I tried to be perfect to please everyone, but why does it feels empty? I learned that, no matter how far you have been, how high your position is, how rich or famous you are, if you do not find satisfaction to it, it would only bring temporary happiness. Happiness is everywhere, but true and life-long happiness can be found if you had received Christ in your life as your personal saviour, friend to comfort, doctor to heal, teacher to teach, and a father to correct. And then there, you will find comfort and happiness despite of the rocks that life would throw at you. You will find joy and purpose living your life. Every minute and hour will be meaningful and worth the wait.
