流浪的丫头

周日去香港跑马拉松。一万米。 

其实自报名甚至到开始前的一刻，都没想过自己能跑完。知道终点的方向，但没有距离或时间的目标。在此之前，人生跑过的最长距离是跑步机上的一次5公里，第二远是1000米。长跑，打从学生时代，就是最大的弱项之一。

但我觉得可以试试看。不向前迈步就永远不知道能走多远。  

起跑前很是担忧，但倒数的时候就开始兴奋非常。几万人一起欢呼，为着前面的坚忍和挑战激动。

头一公里跑得很辛苦。才迈步就觉得困了累了。只是身边有很好的战友，互相鼓励，说别停。

脑袋里不断响着各种励志的旋律。一遍一遍地重复。跟自己说别想着已经跑多远，别想着又有多少人跑到我们前面了，别想着回去能不能跟大家交待会不会丢脸。

这是自己和自己的比赛。

这是为了看自己能赢下多远。

看到一个公里牌就激动一次欢呼一次。从不可能跑到另一个不可能，于是便没有了是否可能的顾虑。只有前面还没看见尽头的路，只有亦不放弃的朋友，和耳边某一个坚稳的带来勇气的声音。

还有一公里才到终点的时候快没力气了，但满心感动。脑袋里已经响着很多或激昂或感激的话。

咬着牙冲过了终点。忽然却很坦然。

这是自己和自己的比赛；

自己给自己的证明。

很多的困苦，安逸的诱惑，放弃的借口。只要愿意，这些恒久的长跑，首先要赢的，也总能赢的，还是自己。

大三巴....

闲走街头之间的景致：

曾经看过一部电影叫<十月初五的月光>,疑心讲的就是这街上的情爱故事...

很是漂亮的窗和门，忍不住一路地拍：

宁静的小道总让人想停靠

Just Read through an article about Work Life Balance.... Found it good and share with you....
BTW. I am enjoying a balance and happy life now. Are you?

Work Life Balance… It is about having the maturity to make choices and gain perspective. Logic would indicate that work/life balance issues would worsen with time, as people's lives become more complicated and they have more things to juggle—they get married, they have kids, they buy a home. And that the issues are quite small early in one's career, when in fact there are averagely less things to worry about.

However, in many cases the data shows the exact OPPOSITE. This suggests the strong role that making choices and perspective can bring. A painful truth is that some people feel they have a work/life balance issue, and whilst the feeling is real, it is founded upon some degree of lack of perspective and choices. They start a new career, and with it they don't make any choices about what they will have to "give up" to now have a career. So they expect to keep all of their university activity intact, all of their outside interests, and do all these well on top of having a successful career. Along the way, they make no choices and expect to incorporate a full career into their life with no other disruption. As long as a week is 7 days, and each day is 24 hours, there is only so much one can put on one's plate. Whenever something new comes into our lives, we have to have the maturity to consciously make choices and remove something less important.
