Dream as if you’ll live forever, live as if you’ll die today.

As I read an article on work-life balance a few days ago, I came across with this profound statement made by The legendary actor James Dean.
I have been thinking about its meaning over and over again and ,at the same time, trying to relate it to my situation.
Its kinda boring to study, study and study for almost every hour of my life without knowing what I am actually heading. Besides, this is not exactly the type of life style that I would like to have for the rest of my 4 years here.

Life is too short to be a slave
to the daily grind.

this short sentence has deeply reflected the need to spare some time to do things that we had often missed out when we are too caught up with our work and day-to -day stuff. As a chinese proverb goes, "休息是为了走更长的路".By having some leisure time amid of our busy schedule, it allows us to recharge ourselves, hence giving us the source of energy to lead a happy and ,definitely,a more meaningful life.

Lastly,

"Dream as if you’ll live forever, live as if you’ll die today!"

p/s : btw, I had just found myself plenty of reasons to watch dramas and play games ! Hurray!
