Academically Talented, But

   I feel so unpleasant whenever I have a chance to see that people with a great deal of academical talents do not go over their boundary. Because I was once a victim of lack of self confidence in learning. I still remember the situation when I talked to myself that if I were an inch higher in an learning ability, I would have gone for all the way down the level I wishsed to. But I finally surrendered my desire for educational career after I had diagnosed my level of competence was under doubt in an intellectual term. Of course, there was no hard feelings back then and now as well. I think I did the right thing to do, not to waste time and money for nothing.

   Lately, I had an opportunity to encounter a few good prospective scholars. And they were boasting of their expertise that would be contributed to the development of new era coming soon. But I was not touched at all - besides the fact that I was not familiar with that field, that was because it looked to me that they were not enthusiastic nor curios at all. 

   Maybe I could be wrong in that judgement, just out of a glimpse very briefly.
