My Brother

 

My two years younger brother, who has a totally different character from me, casted one question, and it made me confused. 

 

I am so ambitious that I can stand hard time for moving toward the goal. On the other hand, my brother has a sort of free spirit, and right now is addicted by surfing. His current dream is to be a professional surfer though two years ago it was becoming a sailer.

 

He said, "hey my brother, why are you so industrious. Where are you going in your life?" 

 

I said, "Well, industrious life leads me to the better life for sure. And you should be so." 

 

He said, "It leads you to the richer life, but not to the happier life." 

 

I thought for nano seconds and said, "You are right in some case. At the same time, there are some people who are happy when they feel moving toward somewhere better." 

 

He said, "Those are boring people. They have not yet found themselves. Their happiness depends on the other one. They don't live their life." 

 

He precisely pointed out my biggest trouble.
