today morning wake up very 情诗画艺 feel like blogging alot about life so here goes..

I always thought im the kind who is 与世无争.. never like competing..never like fighting over positions or ranks with others.. but a night of not sleeping and just laying on bed enlightened my thoughts. I guess there's really not much of such a phrase afterall..

Many people think they are not competing in life, but actually do you realise you are afterall competing... Competing for survival?? competing for grades??..competing for very trivial stuff?? It looks like very general topics that 与世无争 de people are never interested in, but i realise we are lying to ourselves when we say we are not competing. Examples? i wouldnt say any.. cause everybody thinks differently and how in their way of competing differs.
Some people might say " Im doing this for myself", but arent you competing? for yourself?? competing for your own future?

Therefore, i really do not like those people who did not do well in exams and then say, aiya im not competing anyway or i knew i couldnt do it afterall... its like they are running away from the fact that they are competing. Why take the exam in the first place if you keep thinking "hey im not competing" after the taking it?

Lets be realistic. We all compete, but it doesnt mean you can get ruthless...scheming...六亲不认...and hurt others' feelings. I believe we can all compete together, it doesnt have to get SOO realistic ( 不是你死就是我亡)... We live together...not live to win people. A friend who always let his other friends win doesnt mean he dont compete, his just competing to help others. We dont have to accept what he is doing, but we have to understand why he does that.

We have goals in life because we want to compete..we have purposes in life because we want to compete...there isnt such thing as having no goals in life..Its just how every different person defines goals..

A person who just wants to slack his way throughout his life doesnt means he doesnt have goals, he is competing to be able to slack... which is his goal. However i dont agree one should just slack his life away..cause that is my mindset. But i can do nothing, its his life afterall, i can help, but i cant decide for him. -_-||

This explains why a billionaire and a nature conservationist are both successful. They have different goals, but they are all competing for theirs.

Life is about competing, its just how you want to compete.
