Have you taken time to notice?<\/p>\n<p>Have you even taken note of the fact that some students become professors when their lecturers are still doctorate degree holders?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Have you noticed that the first sometimes become last\u2026 and the one close to last indeed becomes first? Have you noticed that a student who was pronounced \u2018dead on arrival\u2019 in class became Albert Einstein while the best in that class was never heard of?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Have you noticed that sometimes the best teams don\u2019t win when they should\u2026 and the worst teams don\u2019t lose when they should?

Have you noticed that this maze called life can drive you crazy with its unpredictability? Have you noticed the most important asset we may ever have in this life is not a car or house\u2026 but life? Have you noticed that what we so badly yearn to have are sometimes wants\u2026 not needs?<\/p>\n<p>Have you noticed it doesn\u2019t make sense to compare ourselves with others because what they have now, we may have later\u2026 and vice versa? Have you noticed that though we all are humans, we have different harvest seasons?<\/p>\n<p>Have you noticed? Comparing ourselves with others is like comparing apples with oranges. Though they all are fruits, they have different harvest seasons, taste, and even outward look!<\/p>\n<p>We start living when we stop comparing. We start living when we stop wishing to be like others. We start living when we get to know that just as apples and oranges have different harvest seasons, we all have different harvest seasons. Have you noticed that you don\u2019t have to give up on yourself as long as you have life? Have you noticed that life shares its goodies to some during the day\u2026 and others at night?<\/p>\n<p>All your contemporaries may have married already but surely it will be your turn soon. Your class mates may have their dream jobs today but surely yours will come, too. Your friends may be bearing children but\u2026 yours will definitely come, too. It may not be now\u2026 but eventually it will be. All you need is life and hope.<\/p>\n<p>Conditions are temporary. They have expiry dates. Whatever you are going through has a time for expiration.<\/p>\n<p>Have you noticed that it took only a day for Joseph\u2019s brothers to bow before him without knowing they were fulfilling the dream he had told them about many years ago? Smile. Your harvest season will surely come. Your dream shall come to pass. This life is unpredictable. It is \u2018someway\u2019.
