What I learned from Hape Kerkeling

"Ich bin dann mal weg" is for me one of the best books in this modern times. Honestly, I haven't read the book yet but I have seen the film. And it made me look forward to reading the book. But I just need to post it as soon as possible about how it affected me. It moved me in thousand ways. As you may have known, I am sick and each second of my life feels like my last. Unlike other terminal illness wherein you know how much time you still have here on earth, I don't know mine. This is aneurysm, and it is eating up my rational thinking. It pulls me down to the darkness of depression... but that film pulled me up! I now try to live up to the philosophy that was mentioned in the film: we all have our own Camino de Santiago. From the film, I have learned that we are all pilgrims of different art. The Way of St. James is not just one, we all tread our own pilgrim's path and it is called LIFE. It is up to us how to make this pilgrimage a memorable one, for me and for the people I meet along the way and share the journey with.
