still oprah

what a special woman. watching the show is like attending a lecture. most of the time i don't participate but there were moments when i laughed out loud, smiled, cried, felt sorrowful and hurt. the feeling was rather intense.

right now i just feel very powerless. this is like the feeling i had when we were out in the mountains in nepal. they were so huge, and we were so small, so tiny. sometimes, i can't help but compare, and ask: so what have you done?

kind of scary. @ncy said today at borders that she doesn't need to read a book to know that she has to live life to the fullest. she knows that she has to spend time with her family, and so on. so what's really stopping us? we were standing around talking about the kpmg ex-partner's book. like what i said to 5a1: do we have to feel pain to know pain?

many wise people has come into my life and many of them are still very much in my life. i'm truly grateful that we've crossed paths and some of these friendships i hold on to very dearly. truly, we've read enough books and heard enough stories to know what needs to be done. but the questions are: so what's stopping us? and are we really sure?
