The sadness & sheer desperation when you wake up Monday morning & find that you're at the same stale desk doing the same mundane task AND YOU HATE IT!
So why do you do it? Why did you chose a career that you hate? Don't hate the world because YOU made the wrong choice.
Sometimes you don't get a choice. Maybe you're still a minor that has to go to school. Be grateful, there are so many children out there that are:
- Child Slaves
- Factory Workers
- Prostitutes
- Child Wives
- Guerrilla Fighters
- [most importantly] fighting stuff like:
- Malnutrition
- Dehydration
- Famine
- Poverty
In my country - and most likely many more worldwide - the families have 2 or more children and only one pair of shoes to share amongst them. The education is free but they are not allowed to arrive at school without proper uniform and unfortunately they have to take turns in wearing the one pair so that they might be able to learn something that day.
In South Africa we have a growing nation full of young leaders that thrive on the kinds of opportunities we take for granted.
The fact that you're reading this already tells me that you have enough money to explore the Internet and at leisure which means you must have at least two pairs of shoes in your cupboard, you can also read which is more than some whole countries.
Feeling guilty yet? I hope so, next time you have the Monday blues because you have to go work for a living, think about those thousands of people that would die to be where you are...
