The day before a great event you will make happen, what do you pray for?

tonight would most promptly be the last night where things are ordinary and is a struggle…
months I have spent to take these projects up…projects that promise no guaranteed prizes at the end of the journey, only the logical sense that by enduring through, much would be accomplished and if successful, the rewards would be beyond imagination. Perhaps the one thing that matters to me most is “Freedom”, the freedom to finally go after what I most wanted to do, the freedom to chase back my love that I have lost, the freedom to give my family and friends a better life without lesser worries…the freedom to do as much as possible…

this period of time, of age is, as wise men of the past from both the east and west, ” the young, the inexperienced, the penniless.”..the best time and to many, the only time in a person’s life to be daring in order to succeed…but this path would not have been taken if certain things have not happened…I wonder if this is what she has foreseen…I wonder if this is why she wanted to let me go…I wonder is it because of her love for me so great that she has chosen to do things to see what might happen… is this what you have wanted ? But it is…these things I may have done, but the only thing I wanted most…is still your love. Please…

they say that the person most likely to succeed, is the one who has nothing to lose, if he has nothing to lose, he will not hold back…a wise man once said “the solider who has no family and in a war his side must win, charges forward first”…

a successful man wrote,

“Men in their thirties with a rising career think that once they have something in their name, they would start and do their own thing, business and such, a risk, but it is rare that many, if any do it at all, for the fear of losing what they have stored up, for the fear of what failure could do to destroy their reputation. By forties, men would have lost their will to do so. And older than that, they find no purpose in doing so. I envy you , you with youth. Who do not know what can’t be done and that is why you can most likely succeed. this is the age where most who made it, make it. You have the stamina. If I know what I know now when I was young in my twenties, I would not have hesitated. “

Confucius wrote:

At 15, I had my mind bent on learning
At 30, I stood firm.
At 40, I had no doubts.
At 50, I knew the decrees of Heavens.
At 60, my ear was an obedient organ for the reception of truth.
At 70, I could follow what my heart desired, without transgressing what was right.

Did this stood the test of time, or is this hastened by technology?

I have to stand my ground,
the penniless, the struggling, the inexperienced…I have only one thing…my thoughts…

the projects are the children of my mind,
tomorrow one would be let out into the world to see what he can do,
do me proud, my son of brilliance…

today I pray for your success as I clothe you with my mind,
take your first step, lest be afraid, just carry on,
for you are prepared, and fortune accompanies the prepared…

the day before a great event…

would be a day to remember before great changes begin.
