DJ: The Great Escape

Have you ever wanted to go on a great escape? Have you ever gone to a place that is vastly different from the scene just outside your house? Ever been to places like Avila, Madrid, The a great Rock of Gibraltar? Have you ever rock climbed up a huge mountain and sit on a Clift, your legs hanging above 2000 feet above the ocean, and to your left you can see the shores of Morocco, while to your right the colors and music of Spain calls out to you? And at the same time, just right below you, a school of dolphins swimming past you? The best part is, you are just there, sitting silently, enjoying the breeze that brushes your cheek, and you can't help but to just be still and do nothing. Have you had your chance for a great escape? I have, when's yours? I have been a way too long. And looking back at my last post, wow.... It is a really long time since I last shared anything here :) But come to think of it, it's a loooong break that I needed. Because I tasted life! I dated a girl; drifted in a car with 3 guys in the car at a speed of 120 hours (it was a short stretch); traveled to a neighboring country alone; lived with the Carmelites priest; stayed in Sabah's aboriginal people's house, shared their food, and gave a speech that was more of a comedy in their community assembly; got to know secrets to success in life from an online millionaire; got a silent treatment from a girl; broke a few girls' heart; got chased by a wild boar; made friends with a few humble food vendors, and so much more! We all long to go somewhere, do something, meet somebody, share something meaningful... But it always is a wish, a dream, a something-I'd-do-one-day idea. The truth is, that one day never comes. And that one day is actually today! Something that I've learnt while traveling to Spain, Turkey, Singapore, Thailand is that there is never "One Day". But we all just don't see it. We all wished we could do something great, or just something that we really want to do, or be somewhere we really want to be, but at the end of the day, we still go back to our own routine, eat the same food, do the same thing over and over again.... Is that the life you really want? Will Smith in "Pursuit of Happiness" said "If you want something in life, go get it. Period. Don't let nobody tell you you can't do something. They tell you you can't do something because they can't do it themselves." You can do something. You can be somebody. You can make you life great. You can ask that beautiful girl who sits opposite your cubicle out. You can apply leave and go somewhere that really makes you happy. You can choose to stop being in that abusive relationship, get out, and life a real life. You can do something different today. You can :) We can because we have a C.H.O.I.C.E!  So choose life! Live a real life!  Get out of your office suit, and go do something you really enjoy! You can make a life out of your life.
