Lost
Lost in a desert.
Surrounded by nothing but sand.
No water in the bottle.
Scorching sun above.
No stars in sight.
But armed with a map of the desert.
And a compass in hand.
Looking at the map.
Checking the compass.
North? South? East? West?
Yet I dunno where to turn.
Not because I cannot read maps.
But the most crucial point, I do not know.
Where am I? (on the map)

then one has to search, even if it was only to scan the horizon. u will still search for that identifiable landmark.
and sometimes.. it's not just about the direction and destination.. it's about the journey and the determination to go on
besides, do u need to know if u're on the right track in order to find the courage to continue?
sometimes.. it's a matter about having faith and the strength of character to just plough ahead
and you never know.. u may meet fellow travellers along the way.. pple who may just touch your life in manners that u never dream possible.

So well said. May all of us (visitors of Kiddy's Moving Castle and I) have faith and the courage to perservere.
