Wow, it's been a while since my last update.
I find that more and more, I gravitate towards short updates (eg facebook status updates) instead of writing a lengthy note. It's faster, more convenient, and I don't get caught up in "what do I write".
But anyway, it's 2009. New year and all that. My theme this year is "It's About Me".
Yes, I go through theme years. Last year was "I'm Perfect", where I mostly stopped doing self development courses and just enjoyed being me. The year before that was "Manwhore". No explanation needed there.
This year, it's about me being more in touch with my wants and being OK with wanting what I want, while at the same time being OK with not getting what I want. It's about acknowledging and empowering my own desires, without clinging on to some preconceived/assumed/desired outcome. And I'm not even talking about necessarily acting on my desires, after all there are many times when acting on your desires isn't the "right" thing to do (eg steal a car that I want).
Let's see where that takes me.
On the lighter side, I had a pretty good day yesterday. I haven't seen Master Hung (my ex TKD instructor) for about 2 years. We met up last night at his dojo, and had dinner. I saw Rob at the dojo. Rob was a white (or yellow?) belt when I stopped attending. Now, Rob is a black belt and is teaching the kids class. Very awesome. :)
