I get realized that time does move really fast. Not just it changes our physicality and look, but also the way we think and perceive, hence, our preferences in life as well.
Take a movie for example. 20 years ago, I still remembered how idealistic life could be if one can have a good ending like what Rahul and Anjali did in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. Long lost friendship, got united by Rahul's daughter despite Anjali have been betrothed with Aman.
Now, if I watch it again, I would feel disgruntled with the plot. Come on Anjali, time to move on! It's true that Rahul is your first love, but Aman is not bad either. At this age, I would feel the storyline is not captivating anymore. Read: farewell to fantasy.
Or, my daily regiment. Previously, if there is an award for the laziest person on the planet to work out, I think I would end up receiving the trophy each and every single year. Not only that, I even couldn't care less about what I munched and gobbled during each meal.
Now that I entered a new digit in my age, I guess it's time for me to repent (haha). I can't say that I work out religiously, but at least, I try (haha again😅). Plus, I am trying to be more cautious about what I put into my tummy. Not to be boastful, but I do admire my mom's spirit in taking care of her health. She is so discipline and if there is an award for the most consistent person, I think she is the one. (Apart of Tun M 😁).
Or the selection of songs. I am now inclined towards more fast-beat, spirited melody rather than slow, melancholic tuned. Gone were the days of self-created-emotional-feeling.
Nonetheless, there are still some things that didn't change, like my penchant for P. Ramlee's masterpieces, good literatures, good company, extra cheese, the sound of rain and definitely travelling!
Just that, if I can wish one thing that changes parallel with age, I do hope that I am turning to be wiser and calmer 😎.
Let's get aging together!
