Life at its End...

Fruits of labour? I had this funny thought a few days back when i was having a test.

I was thinking about how difficult it was to have to study so much and memorised the huge chunk of seemingly endless lines and lines of words/sentences. It took me a weeks to actually remember those rules, objectives etc. Finally, i went into the examination hall and was out in like a couple of minutes. I pass it easily without much difficulty at all. Of course i felt relieved at finally being able to give up the scrolls of scripts that i had hold on so dearly to weeks before.

But then i thought again...That is it? Everything just seems to end in a flash... it seems that whatever little effort put in the study of the test ended in the blink of the eye. Did i really cherished that particular moment of relieved (fruits of labour) which was particularly shortlived? Then it dawn on me...
All this while that i was trying to memorised those lines of texts, i had gather at each particular moment a little triumphant story. Why do i say that... whenever i grasp a particular concept or even ideas or remember a particular quote correctly, i gain a certain kind of relief. By the time i m able to finish all hat i have to study, what i gain is more than the contectual meaning of the text, but also the many little reliefs that i derived from trying to understand them. This little reliefs maybe insignificant in itself but the way they add up never fails to make us pass your tests... True? I do not know of course! BUt at the moment whereby i m typing this, it seems logical.

That Maybe the reason why some people would say, "Try to enjoy the process of your work..."

Alright now back to the topic. "Life at its end"
Now lets look at the bigger picture...We apply the same thought above to LIFE...

First we study damn hard to get a good degree/Diploma...
Fruits of labour? Where do i find it?
Then maybe we get a stable job, earn an income. pay for house, pay for my car...
Fruits of labour? How can i get it?
I get a wife, have kids...
Fruits of labour? Where is it?
This list just goes on and on... The question is, What is the fruits of your labour at the end of this journey we all embark on?
