Great Life, is there any?

inspired by Augustana- Boston, Nelly Furtado- All good thing comes to an end, The Fray- Look After You.

People said that, you are living at the peak, when you have everything in your life. Live in a big city, have great job,
a great social life, lots of friends; to make it simple you have a GREAT LIFE. But, have you wonder what about your innerself? Do you have everything that fulfill your inner soul?

You live in a great city, but do you realize that even its big, its empty actually. Everyday you've been through traffic jam, queuing for bus to work, standing in the bus not knowing who the hell is the people standing next to you, feeling excited everytime you passed by the city and say 'I lived in such a great city' in your heart outloud. But, do you realize, that deep down your soul, your heart say, 'Yet, you never discover what's inside the big city'. Its the same like you are entering a big box with nothing inside it.

You have a great job. A lot of job, that never end. And you finished every job very excellent. You even been praised by your head department, for having some skills in your work. But do you realize that deep inside your heart, you just dont suit that job, and that there is something else that you really love to do as your job.

You have a great social life. You go watch movie with different friends, and you always find and made friends easily. You even play futsal, attend concert, go jamming, play bowling, learn guitar lesson, and even go 'lepak'ing in some club and bistro. You did all that with your friends. But do you ever realize, that actually deep inside your soul, you just dont fit them well. You are actually pretending to be like them, and you are pretending to be one of them, but actually you just dont fit them.

You have a lot of great friends. They are always with you. They listen to all your stories, they cater your needs, they accompany you. They even say that 'I will always be here as your fren', or 'We are here as your fren, remember k', or 'What are fren for la wey'. But do you realize, that actually deep down your soul, with all the saying, does that mean that they are really your friend? Do they really are your great friend? Do they noticed that you are in difficulties, without seeing you cry, without you saying it to them? Do they are great friends?

People always do thing without even thinking of what they really want actually.
People always do what people want them to do.
People always do job that gives them a lot of money, without enjoying the job.
People always be friend with people that they hate most.
In a simple way, people do first, and think later. and one of them is ME.

the life you are describing, sounds familiar to me >:)

sometimes, even if we seem to have EVERYTHING, but the fact is, something is missing.

the emptiness you feel inside.

ps: (awl2 da ps bole ke?) smlm da bace, igtke da tggl komeng. lemoh. hehe.

Last nite i watched Diari AF (eheh call me watever :P) and they brought some unlucky disable kids into the house.

i cant help but to be touched and cried. we are so much luckier then someone else is.

memetik kate shawal, bila kita igt kita ni dh xelok sgt, igtla ade org yg lebih tak beruntung dr kite.

anyway, emptiness are everywhere. it is just up to us how to fill it.

pps: perhaps, we were trying so hard not to do what we were supposed to do. thats why we dont feel FILLED :D

If what you said is true for yourself, then it means that you are starting to malfunction - because only robots does all those that you've written.

There is one thing that defies the robotic feats, becomes the great difference between human being and other 'things', can be achieved and deny all those things, but very hard to get, and also involving many sacrifices. But first, the bitter taste of it's terrible illusion:
