Lessons learned

Another day, another month, another year and time going fast... as it goes I get to know me more and know this world wrapping me... I keep the smile, the thought and feel every part of my growing more eager to knowledge... I learn to appreciate what I have and get more content about things I lost and others I will never have and yet keep in that deep corner of my soul...

I'm a dreamer that keeps the rational path guidance through every step... I have that kind of contrast that creates all the confusion in me... I want to be the dreamer I am inside and in the same time, I am a practical and critical mind full of demands... so, do I ask for too much? or I'm only asking for enough because I deserve that too much? will I be missing something and realize it only one day when it would be too late?

Scared by the unknown and afraid of missing the right path... I am completely missing on the real joy of enjoying it all... the small parts of existence and the parts that make the big picture... my picture of my life as it is ... but deep inside I'm only a person who wants to find that dreamy person who is able to make my life end as I know it... and I know that I wont lose hope in finding him...because as I exist, I'm sure he does as well... my true soul mate is somewhere... simply hanging with all the wrong women ... for now ;)

Home Again

After a week back home, I realized that I stayed too long in a foreign country!! 

The timeframe of most activities seems to get longer since people don't give the same importance to time here and for some reason they even do stress more about things (maybe because they are some 30 min LATE) 

The traffic got me on my nerves when the taxi I was riding simply switched lanes so fast and had that turn between two cars.. I was only catching on my breath and trying to focus on other things, but it's that feeling that started me to think that I stayed too long abroad (in a country where cars follow one lane and signal ahead of time to switch lanes) and I am experiencing another reverse culture shock! 

Walking on the crowded streets with dim lights where people still stare and wonder where you are going with that extra mile, the kind of transportation you are heading to and where you are coming from.... And of course the male companions on the sidewalk have to inform you about their presence and share with you their thought about your eyes, beauty or some insignificant comment about the weather.. The time when a patriarchy shows it's roots in the behavior of SOME men who don't know how to respect a woman in an empty or full stress.

Well, I guess I will simply have to take the time to adjust and get used to the streets. the looks, the lateness, the people and overall culture since it's MY culture after-all !! ummm or I might just take what suits me and not get that much bothered by the other things ...
