You don't need to be like this...

If there isn’t any propose of life, what are we doing here on this earth? Why do we want to prove at school, at work, or in life: the praise of others or self-fulfillment? Now I’m directing my own path toward another world, which makes me feel great but at times I feel so tired and helpless. What then after I have reached my goal?

“Arrogance that is what she got! Tell all of them to eat shit!” Alex said angrily.
“What’s wrong?”
“I can’t believe those foreign teachers said we must respect they’re standard. In their countries, they are usually paid such and such and work such and such, blah, blah, blah… Gee, who were they trying to bluff? I also lived in the western society before!”
“Oh, they could just go back to their homelands if they are not happy here.”
“That’s what I said! When you work as part-time teachers, you just have to come in early for prep. And they dare to ask for pay for the preparation. Don’t they know that’s how people do in Taiwan?”
“That’s called cultural ignorance and bullshit ego.”
“Think about how much they make here and how much they can make in their own countries. They get twice or three times as do average workers here; and I want to ask whether they can get the same ratio when working back home.”
“I bet they can’t, for most of them, because they are a bunch of losers!”

“Why are you so ticked off?” S. asked
“Because I am!” replied Alex
“Nothing is fair in this world. White people have been dominating the major part of this planet for quite a long while. But I think there are other nice people doing wonderful things to better our society.”
“Yeah, I know. It just upsets me, you know. See, how easy for them to get a work permit and if we want to work in the US, yeah, tough as fighting the devil…”
“I’m not sure if I want to work in America…”

Sounds familiar? I get this kind of crap from time to time. Whose fault? It’s hard to draw the line but hey don’t worry. Chinese fever is coming right up! But are you ready to catch this train? You don’t need to be like this, so cynical and sour. That’s why I set goals and move on although the road seems winding and the task daunting…
