So easy to involve in gossips, making fun of others, going back to be one of those average people who like talking about the “other”
It's hard to be constantly kept inspired, by great people, to do something great or just to make oneself a better person.
As the world is full of average, as I'm one of them and great people don't stay still in one place, average people do. So it's natural to always keep going back to who you are, forgetting who you feel inspired to become.
You know. I don't like myself falling into the trap, making fun of others whom ‘they’ said are lame, act lame, sound lame. That just proves I'm lame too. Because I need other’s lameness to justify my coolness. Like Saussure’s binary opposition, it's black because it's not white, I'm cool because I'm not the ‘other’.
No one should ever make fun of others or laugh at anyone. As we all have privileges that others lack, we all have some disadvantages that could make us the ‘other’ too.
I don't like myself even one bit now.
I struggled to get out of a small town of a small city to stay away from small minds. Yet I came all the way to such big city like Tokyo to involve with different kind of average. The mere difference is being an average in Vietnamese and being an average in English language. But average is still just average. No more. No less. And all are the same.
I'm wasting such a good environment where there's more opportunities and easier access to inspiring people.
Not like I will do something great in future, but at least, I'd rather always be surrounded by those inspiring me to think of something great or do something great, creative, interesting.
If I cannot do anything great, can I at least be surrounded by great people and inspiring ones? To feel inspired to become a better person at least? Better and better.
I'm in Tokyo. I should not get stuck in somewhere that couldn't make me grow better. I should not get myself uglier inside out. It's already hard to remain a beautiful soul.
Don't be afraid to be alone.
Don't be afraid to go separate.
Don't be afraid to go on your own way.
If you DO know it's better for you, leave the old comfy zone and go for it.
You can live much better than average.
You have come to Tokyo alone. You have already started your own road, which you are all by yourself after all.
Then why fearing to be alone still?
Only you alone could compete your own path anyway.
Ah maybe you can't go any further than a certain point.... But you should try to see how far you could go.
Yes. Don't settle down just because you feel too alone.
