Confused!!!

Was reading another friends' blog the other day about her past memories of her 20 years of life. She mentioned about some of the things that she loved when she was young, those fun childhood memories. And as I looked back at what I wrote in the previous post, it makes me wonder if I really belittled what I owned. The happiness that seemingly I thought I dun have, may be another meaning to others.
I guessed that is really how life works. Everyone is living a different set of lifes. Everyone has their own meaning and definition to the things that happens around him or her. Due to different experiences, I may be satisfied if I was someone else in his/her situation but the person wasn't. Just like when I feel that "no one can be feeling more worse than me", looking at the patients in ren ci hospital, and the different people showcased on NKF, do I have the right to say something like that?
One point to note, I am guilty of feeling depressed when I shouldn't be. Theres more things to live for in life. But on a second thought, based on my life experiences, maybe thats realli bad.. haha..
I liked two of these lines in a tv drama on channel 8
1. "A perfectionist like me always make and live in unrealistic expectations."
Thats really very true about me to certain expects of my life. I remember once yiling told me this; Ying, dun be so innocent and naive, there is no such thing as an utopia. I guessed its pretty true.
2. "When there is no expectations, there is no disappointments. Life would be easier."
How true it is.. But can we live without expectations? Especially in Singapore??? Hahaha.. Even for the slightest things, all mums will expects somethings from their kids. Everyone expects something from their friend. Boss expects something from his employees. Can I ever live without expectations? I really wonder..

nah..human must have expectation, but not high expectation thou~ without expectation, you won't do well, and if you don't do well, somehow, there' wont be any sense of satisfaction to me..

sometimes, i wonder, people always say, be contented what you have.. maybe it's time we learn to be thankful about what we got..

well, people can never be satisfied.

But it is this and expectations that drives the improvement of the human kind.

and why cant we be wilful once in a while and wallow in self pity? =)
