One of the things that solitude does to people is to make them reflect. It's been a while since I lived in a place without housemates to chat to, so it's kinda strange at first. No more shouting across the hallway to landlord khoo to come see the latest L'pool goal or late-night Wii trauma center surgeries.
Anyway, the past few days I've been wondering what the meaning of life is. They say it's the journey that counts, not the destination, but does that mean at each resting point, one will find out more about the general direction where one is going?
Coming to Japan has been a step, a fairly-big one perhaps, but it's a step that was supposed to be part of a bigger plan. Work a few years here, learn the tricks of the Asian tech trade, settle down, start something, not necessarily in that order. I'm starting to realize that things might, and often will change. The rug will get pulled out from under my feet, for sure. Just have to learn to balance...
It's only been a coupla' weeks, I know :)
Hope you're doing well!

I think life is like puzzles. It takes some time to figure out the whole picture. Not until then, you may not know what is the best solution, or why you need to put one puzzle here or there. So why not just be patient?
Wish you all the best!
