Dear Dephane,

I am so glad that you are back.  May be you have reminded me my golden days
in university which I believed, was one of the prime time of my life.

The reasons were I had exactly done what I wanted to do, without much
hesitations, not afraid of losing anything as I had nothing to lose in fact.
  The most important thing was my time and my life.

I believed we have so many things that we want to achieve in our life.  But
it seems to me that God is fair to us, He gives us time limits.  For
example, you can see that we do not have many chances to have a backpack
trip like the one that you just had, you would not have chances to make the
mistakes that you once had, you would not have the chance to experience
something like the past three years in the university, you made mistakes,
but you gained a lot of experience as well which may remind you not to make
the same mistakes again.

I agree that we have so much to do in life, so the best way is to prioritise
all your desires, dreams with the resources or opportunities you have.
There are some things that we can do only when we are young, there are
someone that we can only date at this moment.  I am sure you have a "scale"
in your mind anyway.  I never say that we have to take every chance we have,
but take the chance that you think are rare and you precious, and of course,
estimate how much you lose if you fail, try to estimate what are the bad
effects on you if it fails.

I discover that no matter how old I am, the same question occurs in
different phases of life.  What do I want in life?  What are my priorities?
Somehow, if I do not make the mistake/ or have that experience before, how
can I weigh the importance of these to me.
If I do not have the experience above love, how do I really know what love
is.  Is it a fancy?  Does it really goes away after being too close? How to
keep and maintain a relationship like this?  How to refresh the relationship
given that every one will  be bored after a certain period of time.  Perhaps
many many "ex-perienced" people would tell you so and so, but the most
important thing is how you feel and think!

I 've got an interesting passage which I would forward it to you next week
co's it is in my office!

I hope I would talk to you later, may be tomorrow!

Take care

Maria
