day 0 without facebook

technically, it can't be day 1 as i've not deleted the account yet. so i'll start from day 0.

surprisingly, i was calm. since i know that i'm going to delete the account tonight, i did not bother to go to any application to harvest or cook or dig treasure.

yes, i agree that it's painful to let go, but since determined and made up my mind, what's the point of holding on? so there was no frustration when the application couldn't load.

this is like life. When you made up your mind about certain things in life, you will let go, you will not worry so much. that's why if someone who plans to commit suicide will not continue to buy things, because you know that you are going to let go, what's the point of holding on to material stuff?

Let go, in chinese, fang kai. two very simple words, but very difficult to do. you really need to transcend beyond a certain level to be able to really let go. It is the same with love. painful to let go, but since determined, what's the point of holding on? holding on only brings suffering to many parties. if letting go brings happiness to the other party, if letting go gives the other party freedom, why not give this happiness to the one you love? if the one you love is happy, then i'm sure you will feel happy too.

so day 0 without facebook, makes me think hard about the phrase 'let go'.

wah...this is bad! i can see this building from last week......when you were ranting about someone getting angry for something.

just keep a cool head and things will be fine when the storm dies down.
