My father want me to be a mechanical engineer because all his brother is an engineer and all their children are clever. My father is the oldest brother and the less educated son in the family but he able to fix some electronic appliances and do some fixing and wiring in the home. He doing all this is because of he did not want all his brother look down on him. WHO CARES ABOUT THIS?
Living own life is better than knowing what the others are thinking!
Words for my father: thinking of the others talking bad on you is their own problems but if you continue what they are thinking about you, you will never comfort your own life including your family. How i wish he can know what i am saying, but i did not have the will to tell him.
Enjoying your own life is the right thing to do. Do it or you will regret it forever. God sent us here is to knew the life of a human been and fulfilling your own dream is one of the things to complete your life.
