What do I really want?
I think this is one question which many people are asking themselves at different stage of life.
At studies > Do I want to score? Do I want to get the best/first? Do I want to get first class honours?
At home > Do I want to sleep more? Do I want to watch more TV programs? Do I want to do chores? Do I want to use the computer? Do I want to do face mask? Do I want a new laptop? Do I want new decorative items?
During shopping? Do I want to get this dress? Do I want to grab the sales discount opportunity? Do I want to spend so much?
At meals? Do I want to eat at restaurants? Do I want expensive places? Do I want cheap and nice food? Do I want to keep my stomach full? Do I want to gain weight? Do I want to lose weight?
At work> Do I want some coffee? Do I want to impress my boss? Do I want to perform? Do I want to work for money and nothing else? Do I want to be promoted quickly? Do I want to have higher pay? Do I really want this job?
At holiday> Do I want to enjoy? Do I want to explore? Do I want to rest or shop? Do I want to better understand the culture of others?
On bus/train> Do I want to seat? Do I want to give up this seat for elderly/ needy? Do I want to listen to music?
With friends> Do I want to share more with them? Do I want to know more about them? Do I want to enjoy the time with them? Do I want to sacrifice time and spend with them? Do I want them to understand me better?
At event? Do I want to be the most outstanding one? Do I want to be the silent one? Do I want to socialise more? Do I want to enjoy the benefit from it?
In our lives, or even mine, there are many more "Do I want..." and certain times we are very sure and confident of our choice and decisions. However, there are bound to be times when we are unable to decide.
What is right and what is wrong? Who can tell us.
How difficult is it to make a decision.. well its difficult for me to explain. :P
But it is definitely easy for me to say -
I want to be more trusting.
I want to be more forgiving.
I want to be more patient.
I want to be more loving and,
I want to be more faithful.
How difficult can this be done? I don't know. You'll be my witness and let me know If I've done so/not.
Then, what do YOU want?
*I want to feel the slowness of time passing as I write this post till the end of the day.
