Be Brave

Be Brave !

For years, we are educated by the school system to have  learn and have input that being pre determine structure with what being logically deem suitable for our growth ecamedically. Our family system conditions us on moral compass and character and personality based on our family genetic make-up. Our country teaches us how to live in the so call environment that not only safe and full of opportunity.

One glance, we are all provided for us to grow to what we call of what we are today. But do you ever wonder, is that what we are? Is this what we really want or Am I what I am to be?

As we mature, I notice many will kind of reaching a cross road of uncertainty. Uncertain of what is install for them? Uncertain of what really is life, after all we did the same thing day after day but in different scenario only. From young, we wake up and go to school, follow all the rule, politely mixing around with friends, sturdy earnest or loggerhead with teacher, strive more as we move forward from kindergarten to university. As we entered the workforce, we still wake up early, learn as much as possible in our job, politely mixing around with our colleague and bosses and now we shoulder more responsibility as  “we” now grow to “us” and repeat the same agenda that we are exposed off before but now to the next generation.

So what happened if you have a great family, excellent job, and a lifestyle that is the envy of everyone. Is that all we are? Where we are heading after this? Are we truly satisfied and contended? Are we bored? Are we feeling lost?

If you are having all these weird feeling about yourself, congratulation, as finally you are waking up and paying attention to yourself as all these while, we are condition to learn, listen and see what is being “prepared and presented” in a form of hypnosis to us.

Are you ready to just sit down and think about yourself? Reflect on your childhood, think about what kind of games you play with your neighbor, try to recall you conversation with your friends then, did you listen or whispered your secret and what make you happy. Bring out the memories of your time with your family, your outing and chatting with your parents. Did you shares your thoughts and feel with any members of your family. Did you detect changes from your reflection? Did any of the changes hidden somewhere while in pursuit your life? Are you ready to challenge what you already used to for something that is not tested?

This remains a million dollar question as all of us will never know “what if” we change from this to that, but the ultimate answer to this question is “finally I know the answer!”

It is easy say then done as most people will tell you, how if we fail? How it did not turn out the way we think it would? Again this million dollar question will nothave the answer as long as we sit down and contemplate it and become only what we call, the NATO Chairman …. No action Talk Only….

“Change” is a frightening word, as it did not come with a congratulatory note for your comfort but it will always be an enlightening journey of experience for each of us in a different context. To me, the million dollars question has always remained that are we willing to take the first step toward the path that is on the opposite?

Stepping forward to the unknown take courage. Courage to put aside first our mental blockage of fear. We were taught from young to fear the dark, fear the stranger, fear of failure, fear of everything that we actually or might not fear at all.

Yes, we might stumble and fall as we are stepping onto unaccustomed territory which might comes with potholes and bobby trap, but we can always put on our thinking cap and slowly map out the path and enjoy the scene as we slowly walk down this route that we never taken before. Yeah, after years travelling on a highway now probably we need to climb some hill and track the valley, but we gain different set of experience that might bring valuable lesson and unforgettable encounter to you.
