The one thing that I am sure about myself is that I am a 35 years old man. Honestly, all other things that I know about myself or my family, friends, colleagues, classmates, lovers and haters think about me are not reliable. I never found that if I am an trustful person or a liar one. Whether I am an emotional man or a strict and serious one. Whether I am sociable or dissociable.
Frankly, the problem is that trying to know and learn about sciences, works, others, lessons, skills, unknowings and everything didn't let me know myself. I learned that Steve Jobs was a great entrepreneur but I never found whether I am an entrepreneur or a employee. I learned a lot about statistics and probability and learned how I can measure the probability of collision a plane with the birds in an airport but I never could determine my success in last educational and occupational careers. Although I respect family and desire to have children, I never had this chance to have my own family or I never had tried to make my own family. Despite excellent grades in high school and university, I never have ever worked based on my education. I have been a pet lover since I was a child but I have never had a pet. My life is a completely confusing combination of many many desires and diametrical achievements. Funny life!
In spite of all these mentally controversial issues, I don't want to complain my life because I love it. I love all days that I passed. From others' point of view I am a successful man and I BELIEVE it. But I have a question; Are the others' opinion true? Are they capable to decide where I succeeded or not?
I doubt whether I can rely on others' opinion while I can't rely on my mind. The main question is that who I am and I doubt whether there is an clear answer to this question. Is it possible to find the answer of this question?
Maybe it's best to say we are all travellers in life's journey. The truth depends on where you are in the journey -- I think the truth changes all the time, just as we do.
ReplyDeleteBTW, why don't you get a pet? You will learn a lot from it!
