Doing Nothing and Emptying

August 09

Aug 9th. First typhoon in Hong Kong. My roommate was hoping that Signal No.8 will be hoisted but turned out the cyclone was a not so strong one afterall. She has to go to work today.

Indeed going back to exercise after 10 days of not doing it was quite tiring. But today I actually felt better after back in the exercise routine from Tue. Body feels lighter.

I had an interesting interview yesterday. Interesting in the sense that it was not at all what I was expecting. Nonetheless an advice from a good friend also points out to me that whether I can do this job depends on whether I can empty out. Like a full glass of water whether I can empty all of that inside.

Keep me thinking since. Even though I claimed I have been doing nothing in the past seven months, my mind was not. In fact it was quite occupied with feelings of worry and uncertainty. It just dawned on me what she said to me about emptying. Independent of whether I am going to take that job or not, I have to empty out my "past" to make room for the future.

I have jokingly said that I am doing nothing but realistically I have not been resting at all. Maybe I should begin to do that now....

God bless me.
