Carrot

"It is not how much we do, but how much love we put in the doing.
It is not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving
"
Mother Theresa

Was browsing in a bookstore today and found an interesting book, was reading it for a while and came upon this interesting phrase, so I used my mobile and took a picture of it.

"Do you really want to look back on your life and see how wonderful it could have been had you not been afraid to live it?"
Caroline Myss

Afraid to live my life ... seems like a distant thing for me, seems like I'm already over that part, now I am trying to get the most out of the remaining of my life, I've wasted a good few years wallowing in terrible depression, those days are over. I believe my life will only get better from here on. I've found the violin sheet for Tong Hua by Guang Liang, will take a few months to play it properly, at least I'm able to play a song just by looking at the sheet which is a good improvement from nothing. Piano's doing well also, one song completed, and Canon in C is doing ok so far, just the notes are a bit weird, will ask my piano teacher when I get to see her again in maybe 3 weeks.

2 papers done, 2 more to go, well by this stage I feel that exams are not something to be feared. I've already grown past that stage of being lazy and always finding excuses to not study and stuffs, those days are long gone but I keep seeing them in my friends. I want to tell them about my experiences but I realised that people have to go through them to grow out of them, just like me.

Why is this post titled carrot? I have no idea, then again like most things in this world, it does not have to make sense. Who is the you that you wrote? God?
