The absence of light breeds discontent

Again, a new blog to reflect a new phase of life, without the baggage and the history of a past life.

A little about me: an ambitious go-getter who finished a decade of education just to join the ranks of the white collar salarymen class. My day starts with me rushing out of the house, sleeping on the train, working to clear as much work as i can, then coming home late to hit the sack, to press the "replay" button until Friday comes.

They say it will all get better once you are no longer at the bottom of the scrap heap supporting the very corporate ladder we are climbing. They say, your legal experience will open doors. They say, chase your dreams. They say, believe in yourself.

Note the incongurence in the above.

Didn't we all used to dream? Is this the dream that we wanted? A reasonable paycheck, a noble possession, a challenging job environment, or are we really the generation which cannot keep a stable lifetime job, forever itching to run away somewhere where the grass is greener....
