I've been thinking about many things recently again.
I thought about my own budgeting strategies and making my savings work harder for me. The recent Budget announcements about tighter car ownership policies might have encouraged me further that a salaried income will never get me anywhere.
I thought about my bucket list. Recently, a friend mentioned about his 2-week plan to go Zambia to care for lions. It reminds me, that I had actually talked about this years ago with another friend, but you know, as one gets older and has increasing responsibilites, it gets harder to reach out to your dream list and tick them off. Borrowing 韩梅梅's book title, “有些事现在不做，一辈子都不会做了。”
I thought about volunteering. Yes, for too long I've been saying it, but I know I'll get involved pretty soon.
I thought about continuing a Dharma class. Today, Papa and Mama brought me to the class that they'd graduated from, and I felt I had benefitted. I've always wanted to learn more, and it's a good starting point.
I thought about going for a trip sometime in the 2nd half of this year. With no annual leave for my first 6 months in the job, I foresee I'd need a little break after my probation ends. But for now, I'll just fantasize about possible destinations.
Oh, I also thought about some of the upcoming things that I'd look forward to. 张信哲's concert is one. 苏打绿's DVD is another. Little bouts of happiness spread over the month is sufficient for me.
人生是黑白的.
