every individual have ambition in life. a dream which you wanna make it come true. i finished my Bachelor of Secondary Education, after i graduated i work right away as a teacher, my salary is not enough for my family. i convinced myself that maybe i can make enough to live with if i will work abroad, just like the others do. but my ambition turned into a nightmare. my father's sister is really mad at me, mad to my father, my mother and to my brother who is now in seminary studying for priesthood. until now their still mad at me and to my family. i really dont why, she's mad at me, and she said to me, you are so ambitious. is it wrong...to have ambition in life? pleae give me your idea...thanks

it's never wrong to be ambitious.. you must be proud you have direction. i had 3 younger sister who we're very talented and intelligent compared me. but since i am the eldest.. i always want to be a great person for them to follow. i was not born to be intelligent and tall but i believe i was born to be a dreamer. and i am using that to have the greatest goals i could achieve. that's my only asset.. my determination to be successful and my concrete thinking that i can fight for my real happiness. i cant forget a quote i have read on my favorite book "Veronica Decides to Die by Paulo Coelho".. its.. "even if you have only two days to live, i dont think you should leave this world without knowing how far you can go" dont let any one be on your way towards the peak of success... i know you are a GREAT PERSON.. good luck and have a nice day...
