It's raining outside. Not the violent rain-type, just the type where the rain falls in big, soft, gentle drops that provides a nice musical background that can lull you into thinking. Or sleep. And I am at work. On Sunday. With nothing to do. Well, I have to be here for the sake of my team who is working. Just to show them that I care. And I seriously have nothing to do. Hence this blog.
If only life could be like this all the time. I am not thinking too much. Just enjoying being here. The silence. The clicking of the keyboard as I type this. The distant spattering of the rain. And the storms in my life are just part of the silent background noise, never interfering. If only.
Again, reflecting, I only need very few things to make my life peaceful. The rest I have learned a while ago to let go - Armanis, the corporate ambition... Yet these few things are the hardest to attain. Must I let go of them also? Or perhaps, must I learn to yearn for other simple things and not these? Will that make me a man of little desire, hence a man with no passion? As it is, gone are the days when I feel the strong desire for anything (except perhaps for one, and even that not as strong as before :) ). Someone whom I have not met for a while remarked that I have managed to look tired, and have lost the mischievous glint in my eyes I always used to possess. Is that right? Based on how I feel, I think it is.
So coming back to the question of whether I must let go of more, I don't know. Anybody out there has an answer?
