Sometimes things work out easier than we think. I put off the appointment
for renewing my daughter’s travel permit with the administration office for
quite a while. The most important reason was that I couldn’t find her birth
certificate, which is a required document for the verification by administration
officials to issue her new permit. I thought it would be difficult and
troublesome to report the loss and get a new one. Therefore I just kept
searching (searching what?) and procrastinating until recently, when I finally decided to tackle
it. It turned out to be not that complex at all. First, yesterday morning I went to
the hospital where my daughter was born and got the certifying documents. Then,
in the afternoon, I took all the documentation to the official who issued the
new birth certificate for my daughter. It went pretty smoothly.
Sometimes, I just worry too much while doing too little.
