What do I stand for?

The music of Some Nights by .Fun caught my attention while I was listening to The Morning Rush and one particularly phrase/s struck me:

Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know anymore...

I am at the point of my life where I am at a crossroads. Paths of what I want in life are verging together at one point in front of me. On one hand, I want to study. Previously, I shied away from taking an MBA but thinking more about it, why not an MBA in Development Management. Although I still want to pursue further studies in Development Economics. Yes, development. Because developing countries are in right now. LOL. But seriously, a part of me really wants to help my country. There is so much to improve on and aside from corruption, there is indifference and ignorance. On the other hand, marriage and kids. I always see my dad smile at little children, doing crazy antics in the mall, hugging their parents, bullying their siblings and anything "kids." He has a different smile when he sees children and that got me thinking. I know he wants grandchildren. He always loved kids.

Really, our society lacks discipline and this is a hindrance in moving forward. I was thinking of writing a book about etiquette or just some social rules that everyone must know and should follow. Just a random idea.
