We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.
~ T. S Elliot
Finally watched Run Lola Run for postmodernism lect. Lola can certainly run. She must have very good stamina to keep running like that. Lol.
Of alternate reality. Of the butterfly effect. What would i be if i never join tzu chi? What would i be if i never join nam wah pai, never stay in pgp, never join sow, or never even come to sg in the first place? i think i would be living a very different kind of life indeed. i would not be able to meet so many great people, some of whom became my closest friends here. i would not have done so many things that i've never tried before and i would not have experience as much.
Maybe there's another me in the other parallel universe. But in this reality, in this universe, there's only one me. We all make decisions. And it is these decisions that affect us. In ways that we could not imagine. I made some decisions. And i will live by them. Pondering about the road not taken, the "what if"s can be good mental exercise but should not be indulged.
i foresee challenges, trials and tribulations ahead. i may not be the best for i'm still learning. But i promise i'll try. My darndest best.
Will you stand by me?
