A Little Bit Of Both Worlds

As I was about to doze off last night, a beeping sound awakened me. I've got a message and it goes something like this: "If you didn't have any fears or apprehensions in your life, what would you be doing right now?"

"I would have taken a course in music and would probably be a performing classical pianist and a voice recording artist right now," I pondered. With that I could easily get away with brain-drain and the hustles and bustles of work. Life would be sheer delight. If only life were uncomplicated, like the way I imagine it to be when I'm in my dollhouse...

Back to reality. I rationalized that if I did took the other path, I would regret not taking a Science-oriented course with advanced Math instead. I would have craved and starved for mind-bogglers and brain-twisters. And if life really were uncomplicated, it would be dull like a sea without occasional tidalwaves and thunderstorms. Without heavy currents it can be quiet, but it will be solitary.

Finally I deduced that I didn't have to choose between the two. Life is too short. If I can't be a master of either worlds, then I'll take pleasure in having a little bit of both.
