Does it worth it?

We rate things in this world by what the particular thing worth. How much is a Prada bag worth? Is it worthwhile sacrifcing time to study? Is is worthwhile believing in something that virtually does not exsist? Tags were put on things in the world; this particular fellow is poor in his study, that girl is pretty, or even racist as times. Why? Why do we tag people like this? Since when the culture of labelling became the force behind the markets?

Is it worthwhile to do something that is right, even if you know you will suffer from that decision? Once a quotation says: Freedom is something that you ought to do, no what you want to do. Certainly. Suffering for the right course seems a "Righteous, Religious" statement, however, it applies to our daily lives. Isolating time out for studying, you will have to say 'no' to facebook, twitter and so on. Is it suffering? Yes, definately for most people, including me. Is it the right thing to do? Yes, most certainly without question.

Yet why there are so little people out there whom are suffering for the right course? Well the answer is, lack of courage. One thing, in my opinion seperating great man and women from the norm, is that they have the courage to do what is right to do, and suffer for what is right to do. Take Thomas Edison for example, over thousands time experimenting for the right materail for bulb? Crazy it can sound, but yet, after thousands of trials, he finally found the perfect match. Suffering for the right course? And to name a few more, Lincoln fighting for the rights of the Blacks, Mother Theresa sacrificing her life for hundreds of people in India.

Its easy to say, but can we do it? Or can I do it? Its hard, its tough, and it needs courage, tons of it.
