I Am Learning Chinese

More than a year ago I started learning Chinese on my own, getting materials here and there from the internet. Knowing I will never master it, and that it will take years until I can see some real progress and use in in an everyday situation. But I don't mind it at all, that's even what I enjoy the most. I like not having any short time deadline, no exams, just learning it for the sake of it, savouring the small joys of being able to remember some character when I see it, or recognizing a couple of words in a conversation.
I love doing something with no definite purpose, or short-term utility.
