Tell us another story
A Friday. We met at 11pm, Somerset. Rain was only decelerating, but unwilling to cease. What was I doing on a cool, romantic night in the company of 2 lovely ladies and a 'transformed' man, at a time when I needed sleep rather than coffee?
We called for the bill at 4am.
Define pessimism. Define success. What's in a dream plan? Why do we need to work? Are we programmed to just flow along in the flow? Capitalist bosses, aka arseholes. How about buying another person's time so that you can play golf in your time? Marriage. All sorts of reason, all the strange reasons. Matter of convenience. Like the comfort zone that many of us have difficulty in abandoning. Commitment, in what you do, towards the people who share the same goals, towards each other. Belief. Health. Going very far, taking it even further.
The story of the Singapore customs officers who had to meet their quota. The story of the new girlfriend. The story of the bulldog in the desert. The many case studies of an international company. Honeymoon in Rome.
You both have come so far, but what's that far to the rest of the journey? Your commitment and love inspire me.
The next thing you know, I'm getting married by end of year too. The black horse.
Just kiddin!
