    No day but today

    I’ve kind of lost my desire and passion in writing, and it’s just the title – the name of a song from the musical Rent that turns me on. It’s about life, about your everyday life. A simple question: how do u choose to live every day?

    There is no doubt that attitude and aptitude is main concern of one’s career, or in a broader sense, of your life. It is common that if you are fired and swept out of a position, you either have an attitude problem, or have an aptitude problem, which is an expectable and reasonable explanation from the perspective of your boss. Therefore, in order to avoid such reluctance and embarrassment, we work hard to improve our ability. Dedication fuels us, ambition enflames us, and industry drives us. All we know is to set a objective, make a schedule, and stick to it. If you achieve the goal, then your common sense will stand out to tell u that: “set another grand goal, u deserve better.” So u move on, and get stuck in a vicious circle. If u happen to do the thing u really love, u are blessed. If not, then ur life turns into a tragedy, or a bland, insipid, dull soap drama. The latter is nearly a universal phenomenon, although the protagonists of these dramas seldom have the intelligence to realize the truth.

    Due to the unawareness of truth, or the lack of insight, men are often twisted between this aptitude and attitude dilemma. Everyday, you are always on the road, wishing getting somewhere, even though you may have no idea of the destination you finally reach. Some people compare life to a journey, and indeed it is not without sense. Nevertheless, the most tragic part of this life show is that people always put too much concentration on the destination and ignore the beautiful scenery of the process.

    Now after so much nonsense above, my question is: if today is the last day of your life, how will you spend it?

    Will you bear pathetically the trials and tribulations of everyday life to  take hold of your current position and protect all your possessions?

    The more you own, the more you lose!

    Think about those people u really care, whom are ignored by u owing to your ambition and desire. Think about the things u really love, which due to your tight time schedule you can rarely do… keep contemplating upon there things, you will take a brand new view of life.    

    There is only today! Just cherish every moment as it is your last.

    Forget regret, or life is yours to miss.

    Never be afraid to say I love u.

    No other path, no other road, no day but today!
