Have you ever read “Who Moved my Cheese?” It’s the best gift I got for my birthday, courtesy of K. It’s really nice, you better read it too. So simple, yet it’s made an impact on my life that’s meant to last forever.
I found this very old sketchbook of mine. One page stood out from the rest, it wasn’t even a sketch that was in there, it was different because I had something written on it, instead of a portrait or a picture drawn. Anyway, let me share it to you guys. It reminds me of Haw in “Who Moved my Cheese?” Here it is:
Sometimes we have to leave some things and people behind in order for us to move on and grow. I think it’s about time that I take a step forward, and start life anew. Let go of the past and move on to the future — look up, look forward to the good things that this life has to offer.
I’ve long been delaying and wasting my time on petty things and hurt, that got me stuck where I am now.
I just need a long time away from everything and everyone. I have to do this, otherwise, I will regret it for the rest of my life.
The world’s way too big to be stuck in one specific corner. One specific dark corner.
I’ll pack my things and leave soon as I can, and try to see what I can do outside this little world of mine. I’d search the rest of the world to find that one thing that could change my life forever.
I’ve tried to gather my thoughts, and reminisced those times. I wrote this before i left for Shanghai. I’m proud to say, I’ve made it through those hard times. Now, I’m facing another uncertainty in my life. I wonder if the same thing would work for me. I want to pursue my studies and earn a degree online while continuing to do my projects. For now I want to focus on my personal growth, and just leave all the bad feelings behind.
