getting the ball rolling.

World cup 2010 season just kicked off as Mexico and South Africa headed towards each other within the demarcated field of play (puns intended). By now it should be clear as to what the title of the post was inspired by. In any case, I am rooting for Spain (for obvious reasons) and Honduras (for not so obvious reasons). We shall see how this season goes!

In any case, getting the ball rolling in not so literal terms can prove to be a pretty daunting task at hand. Getting the gears into motion for example needs oiling, tweaking and many other strenuous tasks. Overcoming this initial barrier may be equivalent of a hike up Mount Everest or braving a storm in the midst of the Indian Ocean. Some may give up, some persevere and wear themselves out but only a select few make it to the peak and then move on with ease. I am faced with a similar problem or obstacle as to whether I should pursue this or I should head in another direction with hopes of greener pastures. But the ultimate question is whether such greener pastures really exist or are this a figment of our hopeful imagination. Is the grass equally brown at the other side? Nobody knows until they go over to find out and by then it may be too late to return. What a big headache-causing dilemma this is! Maybe I should just roll a dice. Maybe I should consult a gypsy with crystal ball. But for now, I wait and watch and let myself try to reach that peak.

On a side note, I am officially addicted to this years worldcup official theme song wakawaka by Shakira. Tsamina mina, eh eh, Waka waka, eh eh.. Tsamina mina zangalewa, This time for africa!cheers!
