“Though tired, why would I still want to take a little step forward❓”


Because I know by experience that however little step forward I take, something different will come.

A message came in the WhatsApp Group of Chinese Music History


Teacher said, “It’s the rehearsal Chinese Music orchestra. Many students can’t attend tonight. Lesson cancelled tonight.”
……


Another me said., “This’s interrupted my plan.”


I said, “Let’s think of another plan.”


Another me said., “What to do?”


I said, “Exercise.”


Another me said., “What exercise?”


I said, “Swimming.”


Another me said., “It’s late. Where to swim?”


I said, “Kwun Tong Swimming Pool.”


Another me said., “I’m so tired.”


I said, “Why so tired?”


Another me said., “I’ve been teaching since 9 a.m. A few hours of relaxation are very precious.”


I said, “Swimming is relaxing. You return to the computer again once back.”


Another me said., “So tiired after swimming. I can do nothing at all. It’s a waste of time.”


I said, “It’s the opposite. Swimming strengthens blood circulation and your work efficiency."


Another me said., “Sure?”


I said, “Sure.”


Another me said., “Why?”


I said, “I’ve tried it with the Lord before.”


Another me said., “I’m not going.”


I said, “Let’s set apart. You take exit A straight back to band room. I take exit B.”


Another me said., “Where are you going?”


I said, “Kwun Tong Swimming Pool, I told you.”


Another me said., “Why do you insist on swimming when so tired?”


I said, “Because I’ve learnt how it’d be to swim even when tired.”


Another me said., “How would it be?”


I said, “Something different.”
