What to do now? What’s next?
I’ve watched L’ultimo bacio twice.
Once in 2003 and last week.
It’s about five guys and the problems
of being young adult.
One is getting married. (Marco)
One is a chronic player, never to have
a steady relationship. (Alberto)
One is a hopeless romantic, still unable
to move on from his ex-girlfriend. (Paolo)
One is already married, and having
a baby. And stressed! (Adriano)
The main character, Carlo, is having
his lady pregnant, and are planning
a marriage. But he was tempted for
a fling with a teenage girl.

Bored Adriano decided to leave his
family, tired of responsibility.
Alberto, still live a life of
adventure, with many girls.
Paolo, who then his father died,
also went with Alberto and Adriano
on a wild adventure.
Just to seek pleasure and purpose in life.
Only Marco who has a steady life.
While Carlo, he must choose…
To be with the new girlfriend,
young Francesca.
Or be a family man, marry Giulia
and…
Sorry, must watch yourself to know
how the story ended.
***
It’s all about being a grown-up.
To choose this or that one as
a life-time spouse.
Yes, there will be period of boredom
after some attractions.
Also burden and responsibility as
a couple who will soon or later have
a baby. Sleepless nights await!
The common problems also there,
parents getting old, sick, dying
until finally their names are history.
This is when you must choose…
To be ‘crazy’ or ‘go crazy’ with your
‘not yet mature’ pals
OR…
To learn to take the burden and
be bored with routine and responsibility.
That’s life, all we must make decision
and priority.

The point is, you’re asking?
Some people lose their sense of purpose
in life. Okay, let’s use simple phrases.
They’re lack of understanding on how
to answer two questions:
- What to do now?
- What’s next?
Planning, you said. That’s good, then you
can stop reading. Go back to your photo
gallery and fill more to satisfy your
narcissism.
Or, just read through…
Or, maybe we should all think once again.
Yes, those two questions, have you got
the answers?
Some people like life in order, everything
is so well-planned.
But some people got stuck in midway, or else
they’ve decided to live life as it is,
just see what’s coming… have fun, go anywhere
heart tells, do whatever pleases, don’t care
about anything else.
Until when?
That’s what adulthood is, you’ll have to answer it
yourself.

What’s my story?
Continue reading, if you’re still interested.
I’m having my crisis of those two questions,
related to job and my own pursuit in life.
A new job after this one?
Going for a master degree?
Or finish italian courses?
Then to apply scholarship?
Those are my questions…
What’s yours?
Having questions is good, only if you
can think the answer. Or at least you try
to find where answers can be found.
I’m stucked with computer games.
It’s fun, addictive and gives pleasure…
Let’s say, as a fictional character where
you are needed and able to be a hero
in a fancy world.
Or able to solve puzzles…
Or create a super-team of football, as a
manager who win many awards and trophies.
You can be anything in the world of game.
Also I’m stucked with reading.
I enjoy it, but it makes me felt:
- An author already write about it
- Why didn’t I think about it before?
- I can use this as a source.
- The idea is great, but need to be applied.
And… when do i start writing?
Hmmm, when is that ‘one day’ actually?
Or… when is the right moment to begin?
Wait, the mood isn’t good…
Those are my excuses, now you know…
I already knew of what to do now and next.
Most problems come from imbalance.
People got sick, companies got bankrupt,
a relationship broken, anything…
All are caused of one thing: imbalance!
And the imbalance we often have are these:
To act without plan.
OR…
To plan without act.
Or combined it with these:
- There are OR there aren’t yet any resources
- plenty OR lack of creativity
- high OR low enthusiasm or motivation
So.. do you have all complete?
Plan… resources… creativity… willingness
Then… act until the target is fulfilled.
Ah! What am I talking?
I’m not even finished with my own.
It will never be done unless I stop it here
and let you think for a while…
Still remember the two questions?
And.. the answers?
