As long as you are alive, there will always be things you wish you didn't do or something you wish you have done and these things sums up our experience in life, but the only thing we can do is try not to dwell too long in the regret of things we didn't do.
Picture is mine
Well for me, I won't say I have lived a life perfectly and I won't say I have lived life the other way around but one thing I try to do is let the bad choice has made probably in past make me regret my future and ever since I understand that everything happened for a particular reason. This won't be a regret if my life had gone as planned but since it didn't I think of it as a regret.
I was going into secondary school (SS1) and that was the time when we are separated into different departments. I was good at drama, dancing, and sport, I would do anything entertainment and I always stand out amongst my classmate but my dream in life doesn't have anything to do with art class. I have always wanted to be a doctor ever since I was little and the dream didn't change for me till I was grown which was the actual reason I went to science and I would have done any of this entertainment ( dance, drama or music ) as a borrowed subject but there was no class for this and still yet we went for competition and I participate in almost all the entertainment at our end of the year party.
The honest fact was I didn't fail throughout the years I was in school as a science student but I had difficulty with math which we see as normal for any student to have difficulties in a particular subject but things didn't go as planned and life had to force me to study computer science as a part-time student which the learning was a total disaster and I had to drop out due to some financial reasons. After a while of not doing the drama or dancing and everything, I found an opportunity to do it back I felt so peaceful doing it, I might be shy to face a crowd of 100000 people but trust me I can't be shy to act in the front of millions of people and anywhere I acted a drama, I always got good feedback and that aside, at work, I was nominated for having the best customer relationship which was more than once, I can easily make friend, I can keep up a conversation with a stranger.
It was then I started noticing that I have more ability being in the art class than being a science student and it hit me so hard that what if I had been in the art class? Would my career have been great?
By the time I realised, it was too late to change anything back. I had to accept that fate but now I'm trying to get Into the entertainment world while I still do the other stuff. One thing that also didn't give me a choice then was because I didn't have a guide, my mom didn't support it and not like today, whereby the teacher could advise the parent that this is what they feel would be good for the child, then it was different.
I now understand that sometimes, what you feel like is your dream might not be your dream and my advice to everyone is to always do that thing you do with ease, that thing that you feel like when you are doing it, you don't get stress too much, that thing you understood easily because it will make your life lot easier.
Well, I'm glad I can share this here and I hope you must have learnt something after reading this. Peace and love
