步行2009年~~

本来在2008年的21日，参加一个50公里的步行活动，可是却没想到生病了，所以没去。步行和跑步之间，你比较喜欢哪一个？两者之间，我没有偏爱哪一方面，只是有时候跑累了，就想慢慢地走。为什么突然间想到步行呢？因为早报周刊在2009年的第一周刊登了那么一篇文章：“2009年初始，让我们回到最初的起点，找回原始的本能，重新认识---步行".

大家趁这机会想一想，步行对你们来说有什么意义吗？还是大家已经太习惯驾车，坐车了呢？我曾经试过在凌晨一点钟从Yio Chu Kang MRT 走回家，花了我整整一个钟头。爸爸和朋友都骂我傻，干吗不坐计程车呢？其实当时我也并没有真正想到安全方面，只是纯粹想趁个机会胡思乱想，享受那种忧哉闲哉的感觉罢了，就是那么的简单。

有时候大家每天忙忙忙，早上起身刷牙洗脸，吃早餐，上班，下班，吃晚餐，看一下电视，睡觉。。。一切太冲忙了吧。并没有好好地看一下那路边的小花，听那早晨的鸟声，感觉一下下午的阳光，抬头望那天上的星星。步行所包含的不只是慢慢走动的姿势，更是一种生活的态度吧。就是能够放下所有包袱，然后尽情享受自我，享受自然，轻轻松松的。那种自在应该是钱也买不回来的吧！有朋友问我：“你觉得我们应该享受还是每天存多多钱?" 我对他说：我们难道就不可以享受生命中些小小的东西吗？钱当然还是可以存的呀。很多时候享受都不需要和钱扯上关系的。每天起身能够呼吸新鲜的空气，那就是一种福份，一种享受，一种回到初始的感觉一样。That's why today is called the present...不是吗？

在这新的一年里，我想重新认识自己，认识身旁的人和事物，以步行的态度体会人生。因为我也差不多有一个世纪的一分之四那么大了， 二十四岁之后的人生，我想，是该更清醒些的不是吗？现在就让我慢慢的躺在床上，享受着此刻吧！
