In all this sound and fury

I can be really immature sometimes really.

We all like to compare ourselves to others. Who doesn't? I used to wonder alot, why my life sucks more than others. Why this world was created unfairly, why others have more money than me, more possessions, u know, stuff liddat. Why others get to stay in 5-storeys landed houses that look like some castle from Far Far Away while I'm stuck in a condo that looks like that pile of mud that Shrek and his family of ogres live in. It got so serious I even got to the point that I totallyhate the rich.

Take for example this someone who is working with me right now. Honestly? She's unbelievably attractive. I donno why she is so pretty but she's a mixed blood and I heard mixed bloods are really attractive because i dunno u get the best of both worlds? But sadly she's also unbelievably rich. In fact she's so rich she doesn't even need to work full hours here so she does part time, coming whenever she likes. "Wow, I had a late movie last night, so I suppose I should just a break at home tomorrow? I don't really need to work anyway since my wealth is already, what, godlike?"

And here I am working my balls off fetching every penny I can get so hopefully I can retire by 40 years old with a bundle of cash and spend the rest of my time doing what I want, like watching korean drama.

But after some time interacting with the patients here I finally realise how lucky I am. Or at least, not so unlucky.

Close to a thousand patients come to the clinic everyday. And most of them, I have to admit, are not very wealthy. Ok, poor. whatever. I mean thats why they dun really mind waiting a few hours to see the doctor they could have just went to see a private clinic if they really want to. Some of them see me behind my desk and approach me to have a conversation, often addressing me as "Ah Boi", or "Boi Boi". Honestly? I hope I grow my mustache soon, seriously.

And I listen. Then I realise there's so many people around me that are in worse shit than me. And I come to realise, Im actually pretty lucky. From a personal point of view, I'm glad, because at least my family's intact. In fact, compared to alot of rich kids out there, my family's really loving and close to each other. I hereby declare now that I am willing to die for my dad, mom, brother and sister.

I used to think being homeless is better than staying in that run-down condo of mine, but what the hell, a condo's still a condo. And my family's actually pretty wealthy, though I would love it if a billion dollars drop out from the sky now and I can officially retire at the age of 21.

So stop complaining people if u are. Live life to its fullest, because no matter how rich u are u still die someday.

Cheers!
