Day Five: Menu

When I was more active and doing things in certain communities, I went to a ramen and sushi restaurant with a bunch of colleagues. One gentleman opened the menu, closed it, and ordered Shrimp Tempura.

I ordered curry, because I was afraid of making a mess and splashing everyone around me if I ate ramen.

Later we learned the gentleman got a menu in full Japanese and ordered what he wanted anyway.

I ordered because I was scared. Perhaps I need to take a lesson from that gentleman, and take more risks.
