Quest

today supposed to have a so called "fellowship" hang out time with Just Joe. he named it "fellowship", and the quest for our fellowship is "storm". how lame was that? =P we did nothing that sort this morning, no storm, nothing. needless to say there was hardly any quest. and we hardly got any style of the "fellowship" haha.. but we had a good time "bonding" and "talking".
that's just a side story.
the main topic is "QUEST". so what am i going to write about this?

talking about quest, the thing that pop right into my mind is the kind of quest just like in the movies. with lots of blood pumping moments. who does not like to feel like a hero? haha..

i used to have lots of day dreaming about quests and spies and missions. i day dreamed about space conquests, spy missions, and sword clashing warrior quests.. ^^ (one of my warrior day dreaming quests, is based on Xena's adventurous quests. i was in primary or secondary school i think)

as i have heard not many girls have this kinda day dreaming? oh well.. never mind that.

movies aside, we all have lots of quests in life and they appear in either big or small packages. some are well planned quests, some are sudden quests, whatever it is, we need to tackle them none the less.

whenever i take a task as if it is a quest, instead of dreadful task or boring routine task, i feel more motivated. i feel challenged. race against myself, my abilities, persistence, will, and time and of course, potential competitors, to accomplish the objectives of the tasks. there are always competitors, we cannot be too naive believing that everyone is happy with whatever they have and no one will get envy or green eyed over other's accomplishment. reality shown otherwise, it is human nature.
to name our daily tasks as quest makes it sound more adventurous isn't it? haha... it's like giving it more meaning and giving ourselves more sense of purpose. therefore, at the end of this post, i would love to reemphasize this "your state of mind determines your thoughts and emotions." never let yourself set a mind barrier before starting on anything. ^^ Oh.. I really LOVE this quote. ^^

  1. Xena! Yay! Definitely not an example of stereotypical femininity. I'd like to hear more about your warrior quest dreams.
