well, u need to slow down n catch ur breath tho...yeah life is much more than brilliance and brains..its not always the brilliant who survive, but the cunning and well-connected....nice piece.

ReplyDeleteIt is good you spend your time plotting how to achieve your aims and not other things. But life....hmmmmm. It is a race oh!!
ReplyDeleteYour view of life is hard and pragmatic. It will lose you friends, some, but it will serve you well, I think.

lol @ 'until u retire'... but i know what u mean...i've spent quite a lot of time wondering why we insist of 'racing', abi no1 wants to be left behind too.
ReplyDelete... so i was listening to beyonce's 'Ave Maria' n she said 'sometimes life can come and pass you by, when you are busy making plans'. interesting perspective, no?
@ posekyere - nicely said.
