Leaving Queen’s Gate
June 25, 2007 11:45 amAfter living in Queen’s Gate for 3 years, all of us moved out on Sat. Everyone will be doing different things next year, but most will be at Lancaster Gate. I will be in Bracknell working for a Engineering Company. Everything from now will be very different (Impermanence), living with 4 others who I don’t know yet in a house. Things seems to be happening and I guess I’m very much following the flow rather than trying to go against it. Different definitions here, but surely you will understand if you know me.
Many things have happened this month, FYP, getting a job offer, moving house and looking forward to travel to Wutai Shan… I’m not very good at putting together what has been happening, Jac has put it very well on this post. Time to let go of the past and the future and back to the present moment.
隨緣并不是消極的可有可無，不去爭取，而是盡你最大的努力後，學會等待，學會放下。

Maybe you are smart not to go against the flow which leaves me being the stupid one to have gone to Japan for a year.
I agree with you that things will be very different next year. I will get Sky TV apparently. I hope there is a place to put my bike next year.
The way I see it, there is firstly the river, then the flow within the river. We can partly pick which river we wanna ride in, or which stream to enter into when the river branches off. But once in that different river or stream… then yeah… relax and ride with the flow…
What does smartness or stupidness have anything to do with which branch we choose? Nothing. It is only when we have already entered the new stream and are resisting then that is futile.
I like the way you put it
The smartness and stupidity comes with the ability to pick the best one so that it doesn’t affect you as much (as a person).
If I am not affected by another branch and if I can be totally isolate myself on that 1 branch, sure, the flow will be so much easier. So again, the inability to concentrate on this flow again makes me think about the smartness.
But hey, its better that the boat is lighter on your branch because now you can flow much easier.
