A Little Piece Of Heaven

Inspiration. Everyone must have idols in their lives. When i was younger, i admired how this dude played football. He, in my opinion, was the best amateur footballer i have seen. He could do almost everything. Pass, dribble, cross and most importantly score. I tried to play like him, he was left footed so i wanted to be the right footed him. Hahah. Then i realised, he was only an idol of mine. Why be like him, when you can be better than him? He is only the stepping stone for me to become a better footballer. I won't say that im a better footballer than him now, but i have definitely improved these past few years.

As i grew older, different people became idols of mine. When i was in Taylors College, Idris Jala, the MAS guy. He came and gave a speech on business turnarounds or something like that. For the second time in my life, I was so determined to be like someone. Imagine being the sole reason to the companies sudden increase in profis. Imagine being the person that the government personally selected so that you help that company awake from their long slumber. It would be damn cool to be known as the person that helped a company suffering massive debts turn into a company that has a reasonable amount of profit in less than a year. Awesome! Unfortunately, i didnt use him as a foundation to become successful.

Now, the person i look up to the most are my parents. In my opinion, they are the best parents around. Although, my dad does bug me sometimes when he interupts with my daily schedule but other times, he's just da bomb! I so wanna be like him. But i think he was born smart. Haha. Some people are like that. They don't have to study, the infomation just sticks to the brain somehow. My mum says that my dad just listens to lectures. He doesnt copy down notes or anything. Hahaha. And this was before they met each other. Means my mum was checking my dad out first. Hahaha. Its all hard work. So dad, im gonna be better than you! Actions do speak louder than words. Hahaha. So i hope that you become my stepping stone to success, dad!
Hehe.
