You and yourself

Have you ever noticed that as our world becoming more advance, our time spend alone had increased significantly? With all the technology advancement, we spend more time doing online shopping, using Watsapp to get through our important messages across to colleagues, friends and family without any human face to face interaction, didn’t we? It saved us from confronting face to face disagreement and facial expressions that we’re not ready to handle.

It seems nothing is impossible to be found through Internet in today world. Perhaps, it had save us a lot of time to commute to various meeting points while we could just focus in front of a laptop by getting thing done alone quietly. Indeed, this is an ideal world we are living in now. While the world is advancing than ever, we have felt more alone than before.

I remember the best advice I got from a wise man. He is an accomplished man in a mega corporate company, managing work force of 500+ people. It was a Friday morning when he’s giving us a motivation speech about how successful leaders achieved their career peak. He told us, every leader path is different from the other. There is no single straight path or the same journey for every leader. Everyone had many curves along the way and their unique own stories. And it is you and yourself in this life journey. It’s sad but it is the truth.

They said, no matter how bright the neon light shine in the city at night, no matter how many laughing faces around you are spinning around, and no matter how fast the cars had been driven through forcing a strong wind on your face; you know deep inside, there is an influx that is running through your vein, head and aching at your heart for every breath you puff and each step you try to walk. It is you and yourself, and they said.
