Fall Down...But never Stop Standing..

(sedang menghilangkan peluh di waktu pagi)

Today when I was warming down, I had a thought.

It's interesting that our life consists of up and downs.

Because then, it would always be a bumpy ride, and never an easy one.

So, we will always fall down. But then, we don't always have to stay down...unless we want to.

Take for example, in tennis. We will hit really high and really bad before we perfect our technique to get that perfect top spin.

And driving. I have seen people who learn to drive the very expensive way. They had accidents with trees, with light poles. they go on the highway and pay tons of toll. But then, they come out as the most proficient drivers I've ever seen.

And scholarships. I've seen one guy who applied for a lot but didn't get anything, when his friends already got scholarships to study overseas. But in the end, due to persistence, he was the only one to get a Petronas scholarship and do his A Levels Overseas.

And in the general picture, this applies in life as a whole.

Sometimes you will be the most spoilt brat, before you become the most responsible guy in the family.

Sometimes you will be the naughtiest in the family, before you become the most disciplined.

Sometimes you are the most noisy, before you learn to say the right things at the right time.

Sometimes you won't listen to people at all, before you learn to accept that you are not perfect, and that other people have opinions as well.

An old axiom in life, you learn to crawl before you walk. And you learn to walk before you run. And you learn to run before you drive a car. It's the same thing.

We will always fall down no matter what. But it doesn't mean that we have to stay down..

Pick yourselves up...keep on running..
