ON PUSHING THE BIG THREE-O
When I was much younger, I used to marvel when the time came that I could actually start to vividly recall events that happened ten years ago. And, believe it or not, I did think of that as cool for some absurd reason. Well, that was way back then.
Now, after another decade and so-so years, I don't relish the fact that I can vividly remember events that happened ten years ago, because I can do a detailed recall of events that go further back. Damn! It's getting harder when one has to turn a decade older. I can't even begin to imagine how strange I would feel after yet another decade.
Oh, well....
But looking back, I am most grateful for the year that passed. Finally, I found a work that I not only
love doing, but I actually get positive results from it. I believe I have finally found a career where I will reap the fruits of my labor. The only down side being that most of my colleagues and superiors
here would be, well, to say it lightly, less chronologically challenged than I am. And THAT aspect has been highlighted once too often in my ten months' stay here.
Oh, well again....
So this is officially the last year of my young adulthood and even that statement I fear will be
met most aversely -- then any crisis after that would be considered as mid-life on a psychological
view.
Drifting to a different note...
With age comes wisdom, sages say. But if there's one thing that the years have taught me, it is to
embrace everything fully -- the good and the bad life has to offer, the sweet taste of triumph and the bitter aftertaste of failure, the joy of birth and the grief of death, the wonder and pain of love, the beautiful and the ugly. Life is such. The earlier we learn and accept that, then we don't have to wait around decades for wisdom to actually set in.

So here's my first attempt at this online journal thingie...
Talk about being a late bloomer...
Since this is public, then I'm not really sure what I would or won't dare post. Just random rumblings of a sleep-deprived brain most probably. My oft-times lacking in follow through philosophical/religious/social aphorisms (did I tell you my all-time favorite book would have to be Tuesdays with Morrie?) perhaps. And if I get pissed bad enough, that incident would probably find its way online - provided I can get my hands on a pc.
Hmm, let's see....
I'll think of something better to post in a bit. Ciao.
