등에 베개를 받치고
침대에 앉아
커피마시면서 책보고 싶은 날
그래서 그렇게 한 날.
The spring semester of 2011-2012 is over !

How would you define the word rest? Sleeping? Not doing anything but just breathing? Talking with friends over some drink? To me, rest means losing myself in time--liberating myself from the stream of time and forgetting what I am doing at every second and every minute. Instead of riding the the wave of time, I just sink very deep in water and I am not bothered by the up and down of the tide at the surface.
I had a good rest with my friend yesterday (link), as if I arrested all the grandios events in the universe and thus the flow of time has been paused. Allowing myself to slip away from the grasp of time and being void of compulsive and obsessive awareness of time are my own definition of the word "rest."
It is an hour before I become 26. Let's be wiser, more mindful, and more considerate like an "old" person. Let's be fearless, open-minded, inquisitive, and active like a child. Happy birthday to me.
The registration comfirmation email came in, and I checked off one of the things that I wanted to try before I turn 30.
