this is a very interesting year indeed
seeing us passing the line
of being 30 one after the other
I always think about the old saying that
one should be independent by 30
and constantly worrying about not being able to do so
now that I passed the line
did I achieve this goal?
well, it depends...
I do have (nearly) complete freedom at work
but I'm still a lowly graduate student after all
I can support myself (and my dear wife to some degree) financially
but all my children rely on their grandparents’ love (and $$)
I used to wonder if having kids before having the ability to
support them is an irresponsible decision
but now I am just grateful to our parents
anyway, being 30 or not,
having good friends like you guys is a really wonderful thing
and I wish you the best
on a side note:
this year I am very pleasantly surprised to get a Nintendo DS Lite
as my Father’s Day’s gift
(Father’s day is the third Sunday in June in the US)
a couple of video games bring back a lot of
sweet and bitter childhood memories
it is a complex feeling to discover that my childhood experience
has such a dramatic effect on how I think and how I feel
about things around me
