計劃Planning

人生真的要計劃嗎?我們會計劃投資、結婚、生孩子、買房子、旅行及讀書等等。
問這個問題,是因為在這農曆新年,發生了一件不幸的事。
初一,收到一通電話,說舊同事在數星期前入院,被診斷患上情況嚴重的癌症,曾經昏迷。
同事育有一孩子。
林林總總的計劃,說起來可能很吸引,但一個病,已經將你辛勞的成果化為烏有。
但不計劃又不行,究竟如何找出平衡點呢?

食道炎及腸胃不適,讓我一度擔心自己是不是身患危疾。在情況稍為好轉時,又聽到同事患病這消息,剛巧這時我的腳又好像有一點腫,我的驚慌又來了。

Do we really need to plan for our life? We will plan to do some investment, get married, have a baby, buy a house, go travelling and studying.
I ask this question because something unfortunate has happened during the Lunar New Year.
I received a phone call on the first day of the Lunar New Year. I was told that a former colleague was admitted to hospital a few weeks ago, and the colleague was diagnosed with advanced cancer.
My colleague has a son.
The various plans we have sound attractive. But the achievements of our hard working efforts would have gone up in smoke by a sudden illness.
But it seems that life will not work without planning. How to make a balance?

My esophagus and stomach illness is having a bad impact on me, psychologically. I was once worried that whether I had serious disease. And now I have heard this unfortunate news of my old colleague when my situation is getting better. My paranoid seems have come back, and one of my legs is swollen.
