This morning, I did something drastic that I've been wanting to do for a while. I unplugged the cable modem and stored the modem in a place suffeciently inconvinient for me to replug it in. With the exams around the corner, as well as a test next week - it's a good move definitely, just that there is a great reluctance within me to do so.
I think most of the people reading this blog would know that I stay online at home until very late. I guess it's partially due to the fact that I live alone that I spend most of my time online talking to people. But it's reached the point where switching on the computer is the first thing I do when I reach home, and frankly I feel it's becoming a very big addiction in my life.
If I ever sit down and write down a list about the things I wish I could change in my life, I'd imagine that that list would contain quite a few things. Putting away the modem will help me tackle several issues, amongst them, the tendency to sleep very late, while doing nothing productive.
It is quite daunting to think about how many things I look forward to changing, but what gives me hope is that this is just the start of my Christian journey. It's like, what, only 2 years..? I still have a solid half a century of my life ahead of me, and little victories over my basic nature gives me satisfaction and hope for the future..
