"Isn't it funny how day by day nothing changes,
but when we look back everything is different." - C.S. Lewis
It's only 20 days til Christmas! Though there's not much to be excited about, I can't help but be affected by all the festive feelings surging out from everywhere. This Christmas or even after it ends, I hope I'd have something to be happy about; I want something, perhaps like a miracle, to happen so I could celebrate. These two years were like fighting an inner leviathan of bad things, some days were like struggling myself through the endless, deep, and muggy waters with grim intuitions threatening to engulf me, and it seemed like I were to repeat those steps for eternity, yet look how far I've made! I've endured it even without realizing. Truly, is not time the most merciful yet the most merciless abstraction in this universe? Though I cannot see how much further I need to go, I just want to say: It will end this time, it must! I won't worry anymore, I feel sorry to myself for carrying such meaningless burdens. I think I'm gonna add this to my 2014 Resolutions: Don't Worry and Be Courageous!
