It is tricky to play with numbers and target of the future, especially for our lives. Many say that it is important to state what we really want in this life by writing 'em down in the form of target and number. However, these target thingy might drag people and myself to confuse about the future days that even we do not know will happen or not. Then bit by bit we keep thinking and worrying about our future and loosing the control over the presence, the day that is precious and can be more beautiful with our presence mind.
Calculating age, earnings, achievements, number of kids, luxurious items for feeding satisfaction, our sake satisfactions, have become part of life. Rooted so deeply until this flows as a giant stream that hard to be avoided. The fact is simply showed, most of everybody does. Some refuse to flow with the stream and pick self out from the stream, forgetting about the future and enjoy what is coming. Nothing is wrong. In my genuine perspective, people can choose the path and attitude to live their life, but of course it will be more interesting if there is a distinctive reason behind their choices, the choices that they are convenient with.
Caring too much about the future or does not care at all. It does not matter. It is the main stream, upstream, or out of the stream. It does not matter. As long as one can really enjoy the process, the daily life, hours by hours, minutes by minutes. Today I reflect again, then I remind my self that I stand for what I believe, picture the future, set the target and I do not remember it, but I keep them in my heart, converge my actions, and I believe the way leads me there.
