Beginer's mind

I enjoy this semester much more than the last semester.
I'm trying to go outside from the university to experience something different as I can't learn things in the university.

Recently, I did what I thought relaxed myself unconsciously.
The reason is because I felt such things were comfortable.
The reason is simple.
It is what I want to be.
I was walking slowly outside, feeling the nature such as sounds of wind, birds, falling leaves, cars, and chatting people.

On last Sunday, I went to the city to meet a woman from Japan.
She has lived in USA for more than 15 years because by coincidence she got a green card.
She has various abilities in all aspects: business, private life, and society.
She works for a restaurant though she is a writer at the same time.
She writes short articles for beauty magazines which I've read as those are from my make-up school.
She has experienced marriage with an American though she divorced with him later.
She said, we can restart what we want when we fail to do what we are doing.

Your choice is not your final decision in your life.
You can change your decision whenever you need to change it.
You'll come across a lot of unexpected wonderful experiences.
You'll see a new world after you make a decision somehow.

We are such a smart person, so we tend to use our knowledge.
We try to avoid any risk, so that in many times we hesitate to jump into a new world where there are full of attractive things for use.

Thinking of only one thing too much is important if it influences on our own way to go.
However, sometimes thinking doesn't work well.
Following our intuition is good for us when we hesitate to start a new thing even though we have a strong motivation that we want to do the thing.

She let me know that it is important for me to follow my intuition rather than think about any risk I might encounter in the future.

I want to be reminded of a beginner's mind.
When I was young, I didn't think about many things which I would be worried about because I didn't have to do so since I didn't have much knowledge to think about our complicated society.
So if I got something I wanted to do, I did immediately without any hesitation.

Knowledge is useful because we can get various opportunities by getting knowledge.
Ironically, knowledge creates a lot of options in which we have a choice whether we try to do or not, so we have to pick the option up.

If you are in your beginner's mind, you'll find what is your most important in your decision.

I hope I'll find my best decision from a lot of possibilities.
