I was listening to radio on my way home, after a long tiring day.
They were talking about Forbes' newest list of billionaires, apparently, there were 793 billionaires on this planet, how many zeros in a billion? 9 zeros, and mr. gates is the number one on this list, with 80bn US, that is 10 zeros...
on the top 25 list, 3 are related to Microsoft, and 4 are related to Wal Mart, that is 7 in combine, that is unbelievable amount of wealth!! Youngest is a 21 year old girl living in Lebanon, whose father was the president who got assisnated last month.
I always wanted to be extraordinary, i guess being rich is pretty extraordinary, but even someone like Martha Steward didn't make the list, she only had 500million! It makes me wonder, if fortune doesn't make one extraordinary, what does? Fame? Fancy outfit?
What should I be doing to become "someone", I still think I have a long way to go, and what does "extraordinary" mean?

should ask first, want to be extraordinary to the world? to a person? or to yourself?
I think all my life, I have been focusing on how not to be ordinary, but I haven't really asked myself what is extraordinary. One thing for sure, I don't want ppl to put "James is a nice man" on my tombstone, I think, just being nice is too ordinary.
We are all unique in our own ways, but how do we stand out with our own colours?
by being ourselves.
however, sometimes, trying to be normal is not as easy as you think
