Finding Meaning In A Crazy World
This book is simply great. It shares experiences that are closely related to our lives. I've found the paradoxical meaning out of somethings. But somehow, some are just reluctance.
10 Paradoxical Commandments
1. People are illogical,
unreasonable, and self-centered.
Love them anyway.
2. If you do good,
people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives.
Do good anyway.
3. If you are successful,
you will win false friends and true enemies.
Succeed anyway.
4. The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
5. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.
6. The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas
can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds.
Think big anyway.
7. People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs.
Fight for a few underdogs anyway.
8. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.
Build anyway.
9. People really need help but may attack you if you do help them.
Help people anyway.
10. Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you have anyway.
~ Kent M. Keith
Why, I can smile. and murder while I smile;
And cry content, to that which grieves my heart;
And wet my cheeks with artificial tears,
And frame my face to all occasions.
I'm living in an absurd world that is full of artificial people around.
Time had changed, true colours are potrayed.
But have you really change for the better?
I dunno.
