More decisions

Posted on June 24th, 2006 by Sacha Chua

My recent bicycle accident enforced a somewhat slower pace of life. I found myself restless. I want to think! I want to write! I want to work!

I want to burn as brightly as I can. Of course, I don't want to burn out. The main risk is that every so often, I get confused about what I'm working towards. If I write and if I talk about my dreams, though, my blog and other people can remind me what it's all about.

I may reconsider a recent decision. At this point in my life, life shouldn't just be about enjoying myself, but about driving myself further (while making sure I don't burn out along the way)... Maybe there's still a way to balance everything.

Random Japanese sentence: 猫は椅子の上で寝ている。 The cat is sleeping on the chair.
