i wonder... has our society gone too far into meritocracy? where results and everything matter, but not passion? where meer quantitative results on some ink, a piece of paper and 1 bit of memory matter much more than the burning passion, the beauty of the heart? why is it that ppl with the paper and nice looking numbers on ink get everything, while those displaying much more fervor, much more enthusiasm and much more love for the particular subject or stg get thrown aside? why is it that humans cant look into the heart to see how a person feels toward stg? so wat if someone is betta quantiatively? he/she may be smarter, may be more academic. so wat? it totally defeats the never-say-die attitude that others who may nt hv as much IQ or something similar? Edison or someone successful in a similar field of study once said "success is 1% IQ, and 99% hardwork with passion" shouldnt those who dont possess as much of the 1%, but much more of the 99% be given a chance? be given the oppurtunity? someone who has, in fact, longed for something that another with higher IQ, with less passion gotten so much easier? if humans could choose, all of us would hv chosen to be smart. most, at least. the thing is, we cant. we cant. Give those ppl with passion equal oppurtunities, look beyond the 1234567890 of logic and deep into the passion of the <3. c'mon, practice wat u preach. DO IT!
