title: Diary of a reformed elitist
date: Wednesday, April 28, 2010
time:11:51 PM

A few days back, I was talking to a classmate of mine. She mentioned that she prefers a simple life, preferring not to step out of her comfort zone. However, I pointed out that we only live once, why settle for a mere existence?

Sometimes, certain people really belong to categories of their own. Whether it be the oblivious, lost, oblivious, naive or privileged. Some of them are really contented and satisfied with where they are in life at the moment. However, I beg to differ. It isn't where you are right now, but where you will go next. Life isn't meant to be lived standing still in one spot and not moving. Its about learning, experiencing and soaking up everything around you.

An article I read in school recently provided some insight to my slightly jumbled life. Not realizing that I was caught in the middle of two groups that left me feeling extremely confused and unaware, the two articles I read jolted me out of my semi conscious state of self awareness. The articles are:

'Scoring high in grades but not in values' - ST April 6,2010,

'Diary of a reformed elitist' - ST Forum April 8,2010

For the people really close to me, they would probably know that I have recently experienced paradigm shifts in my life that caused me to lean towards my 'better' nature. Its a long story which takes a lot to explain and reveals a lot. To make a long story short, I would just like to point out that there is much more to life than what you just see. We all are a small pawn in the greater cosmic scheme of things.
