Competition

I feel it’s been years since I’ve last written something. It feels a bit strange now, why would I write all what I have in mind and share it? Why wouldn’t I??
I absolutely have no idea what I have written the last time and when precisely was that. So here are some updates: I am a Med Student now, almost finished the first semester. And I’ve got to say, it really is exhausting for the mind and the body, and I haven’t even started yet! I got my first F which was in chemistry. I’m less active socially, mainly because I don’t have time to hang out and enjoy my life much. It might seems bad (and I guess it might be) but there’s still a bright side for all of this. I’ve met a lot of smart and intelligent people and I’ve made some really good friends, so that might compensate for some of the trouble.
Aside from University, I haven’t been doing much. I joined a students’ organization called AIESIC (Still not sure about the spelling though). I’ve attended some meetings but still haven’t had the opportunity to actually “do” something. This organization is all about world peace and fulfillment of the human kind’s potential. Its people are amazing.
I’ve lost nearly all contact with my friends from outside of the University, even those who I dared to address as my “Best friends” (who have become 2 now).
A question that has been lurking inside of my head for a while, Should I consider myself my only competition? Don’t get me wrong, it’s not like I am an egocentric who thinks he’s better than everybody, but rather because I’ve been trying to compete with so many people and it’s not helpful at all. In the past, I’d always ignored what others have achieved and never actually had been jealous from anyone about anything, and to be honest, it fruited pretty well. I know I’m not the only person alive and I know that I should look at what people achieve nowadays to know where I actually stand in the ladder of evolution and to get motivated. Or shouldn’t I? Should I stop caring about other’s completely and never ever compare myself to anyone?  Maybe. Who knows? Do you?
