In about an hour's time, I will be facing the demons of my life (again). This sounded very much like the plot in Spiderman 3 (I have not watched it yet) but unfortunately, mine is not a movie - it is as real and as dangerous as it can get.
It's a strange and surreal feeling because many things will hinge on the outcome of this battle once again, just like it had been so a few years ago. The feeling is that of a strange calm which should be felt by all those who are contemplating the possible last moments of their lives. Strange, calm and introspective, that is....
I have done all I can throughout last night consulting my advisors on this impending crisis but the battle is mine alone and I will have to face it to the best of my abilities. Should I be defeated completely, it will be mark the death of me. Should the outcome be a draw or should I win, a new and improved Sean Ho will re-appear in front of everyone in the world.
Don't call me, sms me, email me or MSN me for the next 6 hours because I will be fully concentrating on defeating these demons of my life. Just pray for me. In fact, I have found some Serenity Prayer (though I am not a Christian) and have modified it to suit my purposes - hopefully, it will see me through this life-changing ordeal. Wish me well...
Let me have...
the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can,
the strength to do the necessary,
the love to give to the deserving,
the wisdom to perceive such differences.
I titled my blog using an iconic quotation from a Shakespearean Play "Hamlet" because it is profoundly based on what everyone has been trying, struggling or dying to be - their true selves. I am still searching for the answer to that question myself and amidst all the faint glimpses of truth and doubts, trudging through the labyrinth of daily life, maybe my blogging will help me unravel my destiny in time to come...
