Quote of the moment

"If any of you wants to be my follower, you must first put aside your selfish ambition, shoulder your cross daily, and follow me."

Luke 9:23 (NLT)

As I embark towards middle age O.o

It really is easy getting caught up and lost in the swirl of colors and movement. Humans hardly ever stop and just enjoy the moment do they?

I think the problem with growing up or yes older.. is that one by one our dreams become impossible and suddenly we just give up trying.

On the other hand with all the chasing of dreams we forget to stop and look around. Hmm like the show Huo Yuan Jia (霍元甲). To stop and just feel the breeze. Won't it be horrible to look up one day and see an old man/woman in the mirror?

So two scenarios. Those who give up on their dreams and those who don't. Both don't seem right.

I think i'm at that impasse right now.. not so young I can carelessly chase dreams nor too old to follow a dream.

Now the other problem is.. what are my dreams? Now that I've experienced the world and can no longer claim to be an innocent. Hmm..

I read a literary piece once. We aren't living.. we are dying day by day.. pessimistic eh?
