even though exams start tmr, i'm still not panicky or anything... though i'm still quite far behind in my revision... hahaha... scary... well, now revising harder liao.. so hopefully can catch up a bit more before the papers la...
was watching tv yesterday and saw this very interesting story abt letting go,
an old monk and his young disciple was travelling together one day and came across a lady who was trying to get across a stream... the old monk offered to piggy-back the lady across and so they crossed the river.. the old monk let the lady off after crossing the river, but the young monk had questions abt the old monk's actions.. however he didn't raise them due partly to respect for the old monk.. it was only until they walked another 20 miles that he couldn't hold out any longer and asked the old monk why he as a monk carried the lady on his back.
The old monk replied to the young disciple, only telling him dat he let the lady off after crossing the stream, but instead, the disciple carried her on his back for the whole 20 miles..
it's interesting how we always like to carry unnecessary baggage in our minds after certain things have happened, even though it can no longer affect us anymore.. sometimes it's jus these thoughts dat affect our minds so much that it translates into physical actions that actually affect us in reality.. having been thru it before i realised how stupid i was to have let all these thoughts get the better of me and control me for so long and so negatively..
hope everybody will be able to live on happily no matter wat k? jia you everyone!!
