Mileage is my life!?




I've been up in the air for nearly 5 years since I started working as a tour escort. My life is not as hectic as Ryan's played by George Clooney in the movie called "Up in the air" (Japanese's title: Mileage is my life). Did you see the movie yet? I saw it once in the aircraft to somewhere in the world.

I've been thinking a lot lately about my career and future life, and the movie makes me recognize that there are some simiralities between Ryan's life and mine. Traveling around the world, meeting people and experiencing new cultures have been one of my longing dreams since my childhood, and fortunately I am in that life.

However, I've started feeling that there might have been something that I did sacrifice or give up, and that I need to share more time and build up a mutual better relationship with my family, or with someone special as Rayan in the movie tries. Maybe my attention and focus in life are maybe guradually shifted to internal from external. I don't know...

My favorite singer was once interviewed if she had made her dreams come true...... And she answeared, "I maybe did it as I had expected 10 years ago, but I've never felt that I did it in my heart, and so it never ends, and I can't stop singing.... My mother asked the same question to me the other day, and even said to me, "You did it, eh!? Maybe enough!?" I could only grimmed myself.

Still very much determined to take a challenge against my life getting some inspiration from memories with my old friends, I'll keep walking in the furture on my way.

Are you really happy with your life???
