Years ago when I was still studying at the university, there was a chance for a half-year exchange programme in Denmark lying ahead of me. To help with my decision in going or not going, I got several travel books about Denmark (including a Lonely Planet), and I asked many of my friends for their opinions. Nonetheless, I eventually gave up this precious opportunity. May be I was just feeling too insecure to break out of my comfort zone. Thanks to this personality, I’ve been missing a lot of opportunities in whatever aspects throughout my life. Now I’ll promise not to hesitate that much. I shall no longer waste others’ efforts, but shall endeavour to follow my mind.
故事追溯至年多前的暑假，我正為應否到丹麥交流半年而踟躕。我捎來了好些與丹麥有關的書籍，比如是這本Lonely Planet的旅遊書；我詢問過好些朋友的意見，包括那些曾往北歐留學的學兄、學姊，然而最後，我還是放棄了這個機會。歸根究底，都是因為我猶豫不決的性格：思前想後，左顧右盼，最後踟躕不前。也許你也料到，這件事只是冰山一角，在我的生命裡，還有許多的人事物，都因我尋求安全感的傾向，統統擦身而過。為何忽爾回首前塵呢？我想說的其實是，對於某些事情，我不會再在岔口踟躕，不再辜負別人的心意，盡力去試。我如此承諾。
