Being scared of the unknown is a common flaw amongst us humans. Seldom we venture out of our safety line and seek out what lies beyond. And when we past that moment, we wondered what would've it been if I had...
I think I've done my best to venture out as far as possible, within means and ability. I've made choices and even if it turned out bad, thankfully seldom do, I never look back upon it again. Given the next leap towards adulthood, there should be more to explore and experience - to open your eyes and understand, appreciate the world, the community and the surroundings.
When I ended my National Service duties, I told myself that by 28 I shall have a stable job and time to concentrate at that. And by the time I am 30, it would be time to get married. Though the latter might be a bit harder, the former may be within grasp - may, I shall enforce. Who knows... I may actually like the job and stay on till my mid-life crisis comes about.
Given the opportunity and time, I wanna adventure physically and beyond. Wanna try new things, wanna meet new people and make friends and to venture out to unknowns and things that I may have ignored and refused before. Have done it just this week and hopefully can do it somemore.
I'm needing to remind myself that I am contented and blessed with what I have and have been given. A good family, a good life, good friends and acquaintances. Thank You God for these past 28 years, through laughter and pain, tears and joy.
I wouldn't have it done any other way.
(except maybe to have a little more money to buy me a car? hehe... but nah I can't maintain it). Yah, ok I'm done.

One of my joy in life is to read your blog. It brings me great comfort to see a man at peace with himself. Regardless of the thousands of taunts of career progress and knowledge pursuit (from me), I think the best experience anyone can have is to be at peace with himself.
I haven't really reach this stage (and I don't own a car - at least not mine). So, good for you bro.
Be at peace, always... Until I stir up your career desires again. ;-)
