I find that my greatest sparks of imagination come when I’m walking home from somewhere, usually with an urge to write a post. Top that up with a need to finish the post in 5 minutes, and I’m bursting with ideas on what to jot down.

Life has been bustling with activity lately. Friend from New Zealand popped by, and I’ve been spending time with a bigger circle of friends that I know of. Heh, so many people to learn new experiences from yet so little time. I kid that I’d always spend my free time in front of my computer learning things or just entertaining myself with games or movies. That sounds like my ‘ideal’ kind of life, but truthfully, I am more interested in the learning process outside. Picking up someone else’s thoughts does give you a sense of what’s going on beyond that little piece of sky outside my own well (the analogy to the frog inside the well, Chinese proverb).

People are constantly on my thoughts. They are the friends and family in my life, the people who have made a difference in my outlook and my future prospects in how I want to see things through. I care enough about them that I want to impart a tiny bit of me in them. Heh, we don’t get to choose who our family is, nor do we get to pick the ideal kind of friend to meet. We can only cherish the good things and times we get together.

I’d like to end with a quote by Mother Theresa that I feel is worth sharing

If you judge people, you have no time to love them.
