Winning is NOT everything.....
"Hey kid, in life.. winning is not everything.... When was the last time you cared for somebody else other than yourself?" - Hudson Hornet in CARS
These words struck me alot when I watched the movie CARS yesterday with my orientation group. Honestly, sometimes we do get sucked into the rat race of life.. chasing after good results, climbing relentlessly up the corporate career ladder, working our lungs out to seemingly earn all the money in this world...etc Maybe not all of us are like that.. but I dare say in someway, some of us may just have unknowingly become like that!
Pursuing excellence in work, studies and things we are good at is definitely important.. but NOT at the expense of forfeiting our relationships with friends and loved ones or even compromising our own values and principals in life!
Someone once said to me before, "So what even if you win the rat race of life? You are still a Rat!" Hey.. why not slow down the pace in life and take time to appreciate the environment and people around you.. take time to care and love them. Trust me... fast cars doesn't guarantee a good life. =)
A bible verse came to my mind as I type this post, "What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit his very self?" - Luke 9:25
