Things that I want in Life but did not fulfill it

It has been quite a while since my last update as I am very busy these days and I am kind of demotivated... Probably it is those mid-life crisis thing I guess. :P

Anyway, was looking back at the last 32 years of my life and thought of a question which I like to share with all. Do you have things that you want to achieve in life or things that you want to do but just cannot do it because you do not have the talent for it?

I, for once admit that I am never artistically inclined... I cannot draw or sketch unless it consists of straight lines which is much used in technical drawings. I cannot pick up an instrument and play because I am tone deaf but I still love instrument such as the flute. Even though I got good camera gears and equipment but my photos are just those of average standard... I am lack of the eyes, mind, heart and soul for creative subjects.

As age passed and schedule getting busy, I guess there are things that I want to do but do not think that I can do it. Example, horse riding. I am getting heavier and my weight control is an issue, so I guess horse riding is out... I want to try archery too but no time to commit and no one to go with me... Was hoping to pick up some new language, maybe French, Korean and Japanese but I am not sure if I can commit due to my work as I have been working on weekends for the last 2 months... It is really tiring. The fact that when I want to do something, I want to do it well hence I will put my heart fully to it and I need a lot of commitment. With my busy schedule, I am worried that I will give up my language course halfway...

Life is short and we only live this once and I really wish to live my life to the fullest to make it more meaningful... Hope that all those things that I could not achieve or do will not become a regret in my life. I really hope so...

Growing Busy or Growing Lazy

Sorry for the lack of updates these days as I am rather busy ever since I am back from Europe... Or maybe I am just growing lazy... But no worries, this blog is not officially dead yet. Just that I am going slow on my updates.

Anyway, there are not many readers on my blog these days with the exception of Priscilla and Lai Teng (thanks for the visit) and also "unfortunate" visitors who happen to stumble upon my blog, hope that I have not bored you to tears.

I am currently using Facebook to express my feeling and thoughts, that was another reason why I update lesser here. But this blog is still a place for me to express my inner most thoughts which others do not see...

Whatever it is, thanks for the patience. I hope I will have more time to go out and take more photos to share and to share more of my feelings and thoughts with all.

只希望在我身边的人...

这几天, 在我身边的人都很不开心.
不是为了工作而烦恼, 就是家里或朋友的事而苦恼或伤心.
有时, 发觉有些身边的朋友或同事忽然也变冷寞了, 有如陌生人那样...
不尽感到心酸和心寒...
我好无奈... :(
我只希望在我身边的人会天天开心, 这样我就会开心了.

在这夜深人静的时候, 我以笛子, 吹出悲鸣之歌.
心中的悲伤和沉闷都流露出来...
我流泪了...

Pilgrim's Journey and The Winding Path

Wow... I finally change the music on my blog after such a long time. Well, it is not new song but just posting back an old song that I upload almost like more than 10 months ago. Anyway, it is by Kavin Hoo and featuring Corrinne May.

The last song that was on my blog is called The Winding Path, the current one is named Pilgrim's Journey. Both songs are linked somehow. Below are the words by the composer Mr Kavin Hoo about the 2 songs.

"Pilgrim's Journey" - One of my favourite pieces of music. Corrinne, who sings the main vocals, actualy came up with the melody pretty much on the 1st take. In my mind, if I had to score music for a film whereby the protagonist has to cross tall snow peaked mountains amidst a heavy, blinding snow storm on a quest (a-la Lord of the Rings), this would be it. The music ends when the protagonist, out of sheer exhaustion, collapses onto the snow and loses consciousness.

"The Winding Path" - picks up where "Pilgrim's Journey" left off, & chronicles the rescue of the afore-mentioned adventurer and his feeling of joy & relief as he realises his arduous journey is finally coming to an end and he is returning home at last.

Europe Trip (Paris)

Sorry for not updating my blog regularly these few days. I had a rather busy time since I am back from the Europe Trip. It is work, work, work... I am not really complaining much, not that I hate my job, just a lot of paperwork to catch up and especially since my portfolio increase (maybe I will talk about it next time).

Anyway, just to continue sharing some of my Europe trip photo. In fact, this is the last set which I took from Paris. I did not take any photos in London because of the weather. But overall, I quite like London and Europe.

Ok, enough of that. Just to share some of my shots. Enjoy.
