Aim for the moon...

"Aim for the moon... even if you miss, you'll land amongst the stars."

Something is fundamentally wrong with this statement...

The moon had never appeared to be higher than the stars in anyway...

Physically, it's already been proven that the moon is the nearest rock to Earth... and the stars are the rocks that are further away.... way further than the Sun n fact.

But no doubt... it's the one that appears to be the biggest...

No time to exercise... Really?

On a certain day sometime ago...

"Let's plan a trip to Mt KK."

"Ok! Sounds great!"

"But we have to do some training to prepare ourselves..."

"Let us plan and make some time for the training."

Recently...

"Wah!! Stay at home... so free..."

"Got Euro 2008 and mahjong session later."

"......"

It seems to me that the homo sapien species are always capable of coming up with excuses for not doing something difficult... but beneficial...
And then complains about the poor state of fitness they are in...

When given a plan of action to improve that... they usually nod in mock agreement that that should be the way to go...

But when it comes to the execution of that plan... Time becomes a very precious comodity that is constantly used to delay the execution of the plan.

Everything and anything becomes more important...

Don't ask me how then.... because I belong to the homo sapien species too...

Guess... it's a matter of making it part of your lifestyle...

Feels tired...

No... not refering to me... but to a friend...
~~~~~~~~~~

Was on my way to the Pilates studio, and stopped at a traffic junction just outside a friend's cafe.

Looked into the shop and saw her walking around... attending to customers.

She was walking in her usual manner... but somehow... it felt tired.

Like she is carrying a burden and it is constantly weighing her down... wearing her off... wearing her away...

Guess I should just pop by one of these days...

Endpoint?? Better not have one...

Yes!! I made it for the Mid-Term examination.

Yes!! I cleared the Mid-Term performance test.

But the drilling has not ended...

Because we seek perfection in movement of the pieces...

So perfection is our goal.

But is that the endpoint?

It better not be... because if we do reach our goal... that will also be the end of our learning process...

We will become complacent... and we will always think we are the best...

Truth is... there never will be a best...

There is an ideal... but in years to come... this ideal will evolve to much more than what it is now.

That... is progression.

So there really is only one endpoint... death.
