11:17 a.m. In Starbucks Coffee Shop.
But how should I balance my daily habit? I want to watch TV, play game, do recreational things…You need to solve with longly temper. Lots of things is boring, they can’t really satisfy your feeling all the time… Why do people still stay in library, even they have four successive rest? Do they have the same issues as me? Why are they so hardworking now?
OK, I recorded a video called “請先說你好” that I enjoyed in playing guitar with my favorite songs. I felt lots of happiness when I found what is my real joyful matters, e.g., singing, riding bicycle, reading spiritual books, pray, and etc. These things brought lot’s of gratification and release pressure in my entire body. I always take much expectation to myself, so it let me can’t breathe, and then I willI didn’t want to lose anybody( =anyone), but my mom sent a message via line, which told that you should let other win sometimes, because it didn’t have enough value to ruin relationship, just in order to benefit yourself in small thing. I could realize the sentence meaning, but it’s really hard to execute practically. I still a selfish man. Hmm… But I have will to change my defect now; nevertheless, I still need to make more efforts on lots of things.
I need to finish some works today. Cheer up!
