The happiness of man hangs not on the enjoyment of life but on the fulfillment of his purpose. It's not to say one cannot enjoy life while carrying out his task, but to say that the aim of one is not to seek enjoyment and comfort and security. It's to take risks, experience failure, and be transformed into a more perfect being.
It was saturday of this weekend. Morning consisted of playing bball with asian iv people, afternoon was hanging out and watching my first UMich football game (we lost) at friend's place, then back home to get some hw done and eat, then volleyball with more friends from aiv and harvest. All were extremely enjoyable. But as I lied (laid?) in bed that night, I begin to feel a sense of emptiness. Perhaps it's because I haven't made a life breathed easier that day.
Highlights:
--found out two of my roommates, both white, watch anime. (???) had no idea. They were even watching Darker than Black, which is one of the really good anime that isn't too popular. (one actually went to an anime convention this weekend.)
--compelling (iv retreat) is this upcoming weekend so i'm quite excited.
