Mondays are hard. The good thing is, everyone feels the same. The bad thing is, there is no remedy for the so-called 'disease'. There even is a song <월요병가> (by Stella Jang) complaining the hardness of starting Monday after the sweetness of weekend. It is obvious - Mondays are hard for everyone.
But things can be worse than Mondays - when we talk about Sunday evenings. The dilemma between nice feeling from the memory of weekend and anxiety deriving from fear of what has to come conflict, and result in the ultimate dread of time passing. It is then when you realize the singularity that Sunday is both the day you wish to come and at the same time fear its arrival.
Are chances worth missing, in fear of performing worse? Harper Lee, the author of To Kill a Mockingbird said she could not publish other novels since she was afraid of writing a less successful novel. Some do say that it might have been better if she had not published Go Set a Watchman - a novel she wrote before publishing To Kill a Mockingbird - but who knows if she might have wrote a even better novel than To Kill a Mockingbird.
The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.
- Eleanor Roosevelt
