welcoming changes

someone told me that this would be a year of changes.

yeah...i feel it too.

and generally, it feels like it would be a year of GOOD changes, not just any ol' change. (of course, the term "ol' change" is slightly oxy-moronic. "new change" is just being excessive.)

but yes, good changes. i don't know what it is yet. i don't know how it's gonna happen . i don't even know when it will happen. ("it" being a purely generic idea)

but when it does, i shall be ready to accept it with open arms.

we all need to welcome change, embrace change, because change is the only constant in life.

i sound so cliche that i wanna puke my guts out. haha

the thing is, change usually comes with a few considerations. you need to think through these, and maybe mitigate them before you can decide 'yes, this is the way to go'. and this part of the process is usually the time-consuming one.

there are the considerations for self and the considerations for others. both may be mutually exclusive, or in the worst possible scenario, both may be counteracting off each other. that...sucks most of the time.

well, if i had my way, things would be much quicker. CHANGE would come much quicker. of course, this would be selfish. i would need to cut off all social stems in order to implement whatever changes i had in mind. wouldn't need to think about him or her, this or that.

so, time will tell if this year would indeed be a year of GOOD changes (are there bad ones?).

we'll see...we'll see.

on a separate note, happy lunar NIUUUUU year!!!

took the day off yesterday (gee...my day offs are getting more frequent). took my own sweet time to get to town, borders specifically. i got a book on great speeches that CHANGED the world. moved from cedele at wheelock to coffee bean at HV. i started on the book. so far, so interesting.

i do enjoy spending some alone time, doing simple things like reading at a cafe, having a cuppa. i'm not sure if i can do this day in and day out, but i sure can get used to it. =)

we'll see...we'll see.
