Do you ever know what is waste? Okay, you might say it's throwing unused papers, dumping half-full drinks, buying clothes that are "unwearable" and etc. But I call these physical wastes, which you can see with your own eyes. These are really wastes but they just revolve around materials and money, so they don't cause much nuisance to people especially rich people.
So what is mental wastes? Well, this is what I found out myself, and I am probably experiencing it. Mental waste is the waste where your hardwork and diligence for so many years being unappreciated and even being criticised. Okay, at least my hardwork is being praised and appreciated when I was in primary school, but not in secondary school.
What makes a difference between me and other ordinary students? Quite a lot, but I guess the major difference is I am too realistic for them and in addition, I am too hardworking. Hence, some of them kind of repelling me and even backstabbing me. (Okay, not you, and you know who you are) Do you think I really wanted to be so hardworking? Now I am suspicious about the words in the Bible, as in Verse 6 in "2 Timothy 2": Furthermore, it is the hard working farmer who should have the first share of the crops.
Hardwork really brings ominous relationships huh? Maybe I should stop being hardworking and slack off like some of the students. Getting first is nothing but criticisms. Being the top student is nothing but foolishness. That's what I learnt from my experience, and that's the fact, don't you think so?
