i am beginning to think that maybe God made us differently with different wants and different needs and different abilities and different concerns and different levels of determination and different gauges of caring/ empathy/ sympathy and different degrees of aloofness and different ambitions and different perceptions and different perspectives and different levels of satisfaction and different levels of self-confidence and different gauges of happiness.
i am dumbfounded as to why.
i mean i can hazard a guess... maybe to make the world more diverse and interesting? for Himself and for us?
other than that, it baffles me as to why He would bless some with great fortune and others with naught. i thought that He was supposed to love us equally. No? or maybe His definition of equality and ours are not the same, and we must bend to His will, and accept His definition. then shall i just stand idly by and watch suffering as He does? or help? but what if it is not their fate that they receive help? which is the test, and what will i be judged by? (okay, too deep. i know. yuck.)
what's essentially on my mind is why some people can be complacent with their lot in lives, whilst same others can't. and where i stand in it all.
what drives one to improve oneself? is there ever an end-point? i believe not. then is happiness really the ultimate goal? of self-fulfillment? or reaching a point where you can lay content?

self improvement, or development, comes about when the doer feels discontent with their lot in life. at different stages in life different people experience different goals/ levels of satisfaction. i suspect that most people choose to fully enjoy/ appreciate a certain point in life they were striving for/ aiming to reach until they grow dissatisfied with it or they have outlived its usefulness to them/ they have exhausted their contentedness with it/ they no longer see what benefits it can contribute to them. then they develop other interests out of sheer boredom. (lol, maybe not, but this sounds funny)
