There are just some things that make a lot of sense when you're scrolling down your newsfeed. Today, I found this. And to me, it made a lot of sense. :)
I may never beat or be as good as Einstein when it comes to Quantum Physics (or just plain Physics for goodness' sake!), but I bet he'd never outscore me in karaoke :P or preach with as much passion. :) I'm sure I don't know a whole lot of stuff that my professor knows, but I'm also quite sure that the converse holds true. I'm just saying that we gotta love and embrace who we are, what God gave us and focus on our respective gifts and strengths. Then, we shine. We can't drown in other people's expectations. We aim for a goal and if we miss the first shot, who cares? Never mind the inglorious whisperers on the sidelines, the condescending look on your professor's face, the judgment that passeth the countenance of a stranger. We try again. 'Coz if we kiss-ass and people please and try to succumb to every expectation, we will fall short at some point and fall prey to depression. So we embrace our identity, our uniqueness, and our abilities in order for us to shine the best we can. We dust ourselves up, wipe the tears from our eyes and tell ourselves "Sige lang, ok lang yan. Kaya yan." :)
