The ragged pieces of ideas and thoughts of my attempt to live a life as a contemporary monastic in the urban city of Singapore..
Admit it, we all hate hard disks!!! They are big nuisances in life, pests to have around. But even though they are, they are really things we cannot do without. It's those things in a contemporary life that we cannot understand why we buy them in volumnes they make them and there's nothing we can do about it.
Yeap, it happened again. This is the second time a hard disk crashed on me within a short span of just a few months. I can still recall Dec's
entry about salvaging data from my hard disk at home.
Actually for how hard I work my hard disks, I'm not surprised. This one was used for office work every weekday and the children's service every weekend. With preparation on Saturday, it was practically moved around and used everyday of the week without any rest. And this has been happening for the last 2 years or so. Kinda violated the Sabbatical law of rest, even if its for a machine so I don't blame it for the big time crash.
After a few days getting the hard disk replaced, re-organising all the data, I'm on my way again and It feels good to be moving once more. But right now, I just need some rest.
