Leave
Saturday, February 3rd, 2007To clear some of the balance of my leave, I took 5 days off & went to KL for 1 week in Jan
07. I could go to other places, but then, I would be travelling alone, & I don’t know much
people in other places. Although it’s logical that I use my leave for CNY, things are
different now. I’m back home, after all.
It was a trip of ‘relessing’, & to a point, that objective was reached. What did I buy?
What else? Gundams & books, of course. Oh, bought some new clothes too.
Also, met a few of my old fwens. It was nice to see them again, but only time is definite.
Meaning, things change, & people are among those things that change. Simply put, it was
there in almost all of them. Maybe it’s I who has changed, or maybe it’s because of the
lack of contact all this while. Still, can’t deny that it was no longer the same, & that
saddens me. Why? There is no ‘why’.
Well, not that I can’t do anything about it, but like what I told others, there’s only so
much one can do. & like others, there are more responsibilities to undertake now. Fwens my
age are getting married, buying properties & being their own bosses. Not uncommon, but
really now, isn’t that something of an achievement? There may be a catch to all these
things respectively, but looking at them in a larger picture, they are merely another step
taken in life. So, how many steps have been taken?
My short trip got me what I wanted, & at the same time showed me what I no longer need.
While realizing what I have to do, I also noticed what I must let go.
Well, just going through the motions of living…
