Olympics Spirit
Here we are, witnessing the joy of 2008 Beijing Olympics Closing Ceremony on television.
It is not mainly about the competition to us, but the celebration of ‘blood, sweat and tears’ moments every single athlete must has been passed through. We are, in truth, really moved by the shared sensation of passion, life time dedication and toil they put on this event. No matter the medals they managed (or not) to achieved, tonight is the party they really deserved to have.
We don’t see life is ever meant as competition arena. It is more about offering the best of us, to others. Every single effort we put to achieve and develop ourselves is much more appreciated, no matter how it may be compared relatively.
To the athletes and any participants who prepared themselves for this event, sincere thanks for the share of the spirit!
Finally, another one is done.
No, we’re not talking about serious project. It’s is just another Playstation 3 (PS3) game of our small collections; Condemned 2 : Bloodshot.
Playstation is an entertaining pastime for us, and it is not merely a game. It is, in some way, another creative stimulation activities for us. It works along with other creative process, sparks and inspires some fresh ideas, force and drive the project forwards along with other activities, let alone if that only means as a refreshing tools of the worn out mind after the long tiring works.
Definitely, we don’t play all the existing game in the market. Indeed, we can’t call us as PlayStation(PS) fan, like some PS console owners. Our collection are only small friction of PS game ever produced. We would say, that engaging cinematic story games are main ones we after, and we tend to skip the rest. And the pattern of buying is quite far from frequent. Only when we’ve done a game completely, then it will be the time to browse other one to buy and play.
Still, it is naturally absorbing and addictive. Some good ones are really engaging, temp us to stay with the game without any distraction until it reaches the story ending.
However, spending our time playing game too much is really against our principal rule of being productive. It is a kind of temptation need to be controlled to reach its maximum potential, otherwise leads to unproductive (time wasting) behavior.
Then, the basic rule is applied; it can be spontaneous regular thing, along with other productive time allocations, as long as only take a friction time of them.
Thus, the process of completing the story game is like a journey toward a goal. We move forwards bit by bit, step by step consistently in balance with other things. It is like our faith of working on our projects, consistently in passion with a belief that we’ll be there one day.
It is enjoyable process, certainly when you finally reach the goal no matter how long it may take, just like today; when the story mission of the game is successfully accomplished.
One is done, it’s time to back working on our life time projects now…( wondering when it reaches ‘the end’…)
To the ‘Angel’s
What lay on the road ahead are never known in certain. It is just how this universe works.
When things turn into shadowy darkness, crawling may be the choice to keep moving forward, while dreaming the angels coming, do the miracle to turn it back into the bright beautiful light.
We’ve never seen ones, The Angels, but we know some who play this cast nicely. They are around, do some magical moment to brighten our days.
Unfortunately, this is not eternal world; things may be here today, and easily gone tomorrow. So do our ‘Angel’s, never to be possessed.
To Anggit, thanks for all the angelic magic you’ve done to us. Hope you enjoy Paris! (..and we believe, you’ll keep sharing the wonders to others)
