hiking and life

when hiking, most people will head downhill if they are lost in the wilds, hoping to leave the area as soon as possible, often not considering their locations. however, singapore has a tropical climate, the woods are dense everywhere, even worse when you head downhill. it will be easier to get lost then. when one is lost, with neither a compass or a map, it is better to head uphill. it will be easier for you to know your location and find the way out there.

life is like hiking, when we are stuck in a mess and continue to rumage around for an answer, many a times the issue will not be resolved. only when we pull ourselves out of it, will we then be able to better discern the issue and find a probable solution.

there is something i should have tackled a long time ago but i had been avoiding the issue for 2 years and never had a chance to tackle it. now that time is running down, i do not know what i should do.

it really depends actually. if there is a cause for concern, i should solve it. however, if the presence of the issue does not really affects me, i should just let it be. if the presence of the issue affects more than myself, it would come down to my character. if i feel that everyone is an individual entity, i would only care about my own interests. i can not please everybody, can i?

i have always told myself, the time is not right. but then again, when is the corect time? i think i am waiting for the opportunity more than searching for the opportunity.
