Well,
I've finally turned 40
yesterday.
Took me a long time
to get here.
View ain't pretty,
looks like a long downhill
from here.
But I ain't
going down that hill.
I'm taking another route.
Can't see very far,
but looks like mountains ahead
to climb,
and fall.
But by nature,
I am both an adventurer
and risk taker.
Why bother taking the known route,
when it's going down?
Let's take the unknown route,
it may well take me,
to higher heights.
Turning 40 seems significant,
Moses led the Isrealites out of Egypt,
and they wandered in the wilderness,
for 40 years,
before they reached,
the Promised Land.
Anyone can tell you,
it takes less than a month,
to walk from Egypt to Isreal.
Looks to me that they wandered
around the Promised Land,
for 40 years,
without knowing,
they're already in the
Promised Land.
Henceforth, my question,
what if the Life we are leading,
is already Heaven,
but we just didn't know it?
It's all a matter of perception.
Perception is afterall,
your immediate
Reality.
Like the thrillseeker,
on a rollercoaster ride.
He enjoys the highs,
as much as the lows.
He reaches back to the same spot,
shaken
but not stirred.
So there I go again,
into my rollercoaster ride.
Not knowing what to expect,
but going to enjoy it,
nonetheless.
With a full time job,
and a side line business
to run.
With my parents to support,
and Ms X to protect and provide,
and a set of value systems to guide.
That my words and actions,
are observed and recorded,
and one day I would
be held accountable,
as I lay down
the straight and
undeviating
line of conduct,
as I pursue
the 2nd chapter
in my Life.
Life in its 2nd edition,
revised
and improved.
