Mind

They say: "Your mind is your sharpest weapon.."

... just like a katana, repeatedly folded, tampered and forged in my undergraduate years..

now, Honours 2008, the moment of testing .. Started off razor sharp.. and now in the heat of a fight with the woes of Honours year.. from razor sharp precision cuts, each successive strike seems to dull its edge.. it feels like its getting worn out.. my sword feels heavy.. more often than other, it feels like i'm just using brute hacking force to overcome my figurative adversaries. What is driving me? I know I can't give up... but for what cause?

Whatever it is, there's no time to think now. All I can do is sharpen the dull edge and galvanize my sword with a coating of steel resolve and pray that it'll last for awhile more.. grip it tightly in my hands and make sure I put up a good fight.. no surrender..God help me outlast and outfight this year.
