nothing else matters.....

when a child is born, people say that it doesn't matter whether it is cute or not because after all, it is the brains that counts. he/she grows, and goes to school. people say that his/her school performance doesn't matter because it is the college performance which matters more in the CV. he/she goes to the college, and now they say the college eduction doesn't matter. reason ? because anyway he/she will have to take some professional eduction. he/she goes on to take admission in an engineering/medical/finance course. now guess what? they say it doesn't matter how he/she performs there because he/she will have to work hard to make himself/herself established in his/her chosen field. he/she works hard, and becomes a person of respect and wealth. now people say that it is the family which matters most, and all professional achievements take a back seat when it comes to family.

you want to give an exam, and all around you people say that it won't matter. the question is - if nothing matters in life, what does? I am looking for an answer for weeks, but always seem to get stuck in the middle of nowhere.

well, let me put it this way..... people from young generation like you and me are running to earn more and more money.... same did Ford only to find the newmeaning of life that does not revolve around money..... but the interesting point is that he realized this only after he had sufficient money..... the point is, the importance of certain things are very specific to present status.... one can't just comapare oneself with others who are on different status and yet comparing the importance of certain things in their respective lives.... they are not on equql footing, hence uncomparable..... you have to go through the phase of life to understand the worthiness or unworthiness of a particular thing at that stage of life.
