Highway at Night



As we staring at the other side of the glass on the way to Perak, seeing the cars overtaking us, we somehow noticed the cars which were coming from the opposite direction always seem to be faster as compared to those hitting on the same road as us. Personally does not know the scientific explanation behind that particular phenomenon, but it somehow applies to our daily lifestyle in a way. How often do we look at the others and start telling ourselves how good they are and how terrible we are? How often do we actually look at our own strengths instead of comparing ourselves with the rest of the world based on our weaknesses? When we look at other people’s achievements, we may be comparing the levels between ours and theirs, instead of judging our own doings from the view of third party and see how far we’ve strike since the last accomplishment. Just like when we are travelling at the highway, we see cars from the opposite direction to be faster but visible, that we always seem to be taking note of other people’s speed in moving towards their own destination. However, we often find the cars which are heading down the same road as us to be slow, though less visible, that we always seem to be forgetting of our own achievement and speed towards our goal. Perhaps it is time for a change, to have a look at our strengths instead of other people’s and compare with ourselves instead of others.
