Travelling

It is amazing how travelling out of your comfort zone changes your mind... It is amazing when you begin to realise that just 1.5 hours flight away, a new world lies undiscovered.... It is also amazing when you understand that no matter how much you screw up in your life now, just a few hours away, you can be somewhere completely different where no one knows you... you get to start afresh... So perhaps, with this knowledge, understand that it is never the end for you... your new beginning is just a few hours away...

You know, I am a very timid person... I am afraid of change.. Everyday, I take the bus 89... I arrive at hougang terminal and take the NEL... Everyday, I sit on the same seat... and I am sure I see the same bus driver day in day out... And somehow, along the monotony of life, I begin to imagine that this is all life has to offer... How wrong can I be? How small can my world get? Eventually, I find myself bored and lonely... But then all this while, so many new worlds are lying out there, waiting for me to discover...

That is precisely why I fervently believe that everyone should travel... At least once a year... It will not only help you put things into perspective... it will make whatever problems that seem so large to you appear small...
