I don't know what I want to do in life. My direction is unclear. I take it as it comes. Gazillion books say that you should already know what you want to do in life. Can I just say that I do not care as long as it is a path that will secure a happy future and give me wealth? I wish to slam that statement into many faces. It is not my fault for being nonchalant towards life. I am born to have feelings less stronger than others.
So you ask me what is my dream? I really wish to tell you, but I really can't. So when people ask, and if I bother to explain, I will take time to explain. Since now I bother to, here goes.
It is only natural for a person who obtained a diploma in law, whether you did well or not, to want to take an LLB. Reasons are simple. Your diploma sounds good. You know what sort of recognition it will gain you. You know that people will naturally look up to you when you mention that you took a law course. Humans are suckers for recognition. Since the natural path for a person who obtained a diploma in law to pursue a law degree, everyone just hops right in.
However, people like me, who are not financially capable of doing so, are in trouble. Our natural, planned route is cut off, and results are not fantastic, what should we do?
We work.
We hope that with our luck, we are able to have someone recognise our soft skills. Recognise that we have the capability to produce more than the scholars even though we lack of certain knowledge, which actually is not an issue at all. We are not slow, we just mature later than others in life. Therefore, we appear lazier.
So what do I hope to do? I seek recognition/appreciation for the work I do for others, in exchange for mentorship, which is why I cannot tell you what my dream is. It really depends on who I have as mentors in life. Whether or not I pursue law in the future, that is entirely another story.
Those who read, don't ask me why I did not pursue a law degree. Do not ask me if I intend to or not. Do not ask me what is my interest or dream. Do not try and explain that these will lead to greatness in my life, and that work will seem like gameplay. I listened to all these cliche nonsense since I stopped sucking my thumb. Why not try asking me what is my plan to get out of this rat race, and advise me when I say, "I DO NOT KNOW".
