Sometimes, it's important to work for that pot of gold. But other times, it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow. ~Douglas Pagels, These Are the Gifts I'd Like to Give to You

Going through changes is both tiring and confusing. I realised it when it came to a point where I don't even have room to change my mind. I didn't bother thinking about a decision because I didn't have the time for it. I was following the tide. Wherever it brings me, there I will be.

Between consumption and production, production is favored when one is able and on the uphill, which is among the reasons why I took a weekend job. I was thankful for a gap filled soon enough, until another opportunity came. Simultaneously, it was a seven-day sked which was never easy.

We are not always sure of what we want in life. Even when we do know what we want, we don't always get it, even if they are of selfless or noble motive such as the opportunity to shake hands or say thank you.

Happiness is learning to let go, bearing no grudge, and making the most of what we have. On the other side of the river is a primeval forest with tricky paths and thorny surroundings but enchantingly inviting. Either I discover a secret garden or I transform it into one.

Again I embrace the routine between task and respite, which is generally all that it takes to keep my sanity.
