Continuity...???

It's not that there's anything wrong with your life or anything, it's just a boring sensation, you are doing okay, with your work, study, hobbies, family and friends, getting along with people, no tension, no fights, no big deals, no one is really bugging you, nothing specially annoying.

It's been a struggle my life that is; i was a child and it wasn't easy but it was fun, and then a teen and it was a wavey phase of my life, everything was constantly changing, and i was on the doors of twenties, and it was nice to feel mature, and now i'm officially an adult, young adult and i've been struggling to pass all that, but now that i'm 22 and life is finally balanced, nothing is specially easy and nothing is specially hard, you know who your friends are, you know who your mates are, you know who your enemies are(almost), you know whom to talk to and you know who can't get closer to you...

You know how to do "your stuff", you know what you need, you basically figured out what you like, what your favourite colors are, there's nothing you are waiting specially, you've your study and it's going, time is passing, you've also your other activities, you deal with your dark side sometimes and it's been the same for a decent period of time and it's not changing...

Even your friends have became part of the routine, you know when to call them, you tell them basically the same stuff, you do together the same stuff, you fight over the same stuff...Even those who you get to meet rarely, you meet them at constant time intervals, every 3 months, every 6 months, once a year...

Even your moments of madness occurs constantly at the same rate, you've a very well balanced life, even meeting new people, happens at constant rate. Even sports are all the same, you live in the same city, get the same lengthy walks around the same places, it's really tiring...

Even going some where well exposed to the sun and fresh air, having your coffee and iced capuccino with a friend in the morning, empty headed and careless, even that is so frequent...

So this is the part when it's all settled, when you are finally having some continuity, and nothing, nothing is interrupting that. This sounds scary to me, i'm not used to it, actually i don't want it. I want some new adventure, how about flying around the world in 30 days?? Maybe i need more money to do that...How about going south, some new places, different colors, foods?? Well i'll wait for the vacation, and south is kinda too hot for my liking, and there's no where on earth i'll fly for some european country, no more visa lines and freaky obstacles...How about Russia?? Sounds good or maybe i could go to Georgia they have a mountain province on my name, or Kazakhistan it seems beautifull, maybe Ukraine, and buy some old soviet cameras...Maybe the other half of the earth, it's gonna be winter there when it's my summer, i can go to Australia(that sounds a bit boring), maybe Argentina, it's kinda expensive though, or Morocco/Tunisia?? Or China?? And eating huge shrimps...Lots of sea food in Indonesia too. I can't even decide, which sounds very familiar...

In the mean while i'll fix my cameras, clean my watch crystal and learn how to grow herbs in the pots i bought today and use the soil i got...Oh i need some seeds, maybe i'll wait and buy some tomorrow. Also i need to start my new tropical fish tank(salty this time), i need to start buying new equipment and clean the tank. Or maybe buy some new books to read, reading is such a good routine...

It'll be interesting to eat mint you planted, and maybe i'll bring out my fish equipment, wondering when and where again like i do every year...Maybe it's time to do it!!!

غريب أنك متأكدة من حاجات كتير أوي كدة
you know who your friends are, you know who your mates are, you know who your enemies are(almost), you know whom to talk to and you know who can't get closer to you...

you know when to call them,

كل دي بالنسبة لك ثوابت !؟ و كلها متأكدة منها

الشعور بالملل شعور طبيعي بالذات لو كان عندك كل الثوابت دي

أفهم ما تتحدثين عنه
لكي أن تقرأي تلك الكلمات فربما تفسر قليلا و تحلل معني هذا الاحساس


إن الذين يتصورون الألم نصلاً حاداً يمزق فى القلب ....
وينتزع منه الشهقات ...
ويفجر الدموع ...
لم يجربوا من الألم غير أبسط أنواعه ! .
فإن من الألم ما تبلغ قسوته حدا يفقد فيه الإنسان كل شعور بالحياة ...
حتى الشعور بالألم ذاته ...
فلا يعود وخز الخناجر قادرا على إيلامه ...
أو إنتزاعه من الشلل الذى فاجأ إدراكه وإحساسه ! .

Rubiba,
very well said. In fact it looks very clear to me maybe because I almost have an opposite situation :)
Not that I have quite an exciting life, but it's the point that I keep restarting my life every few years, maybe because i keep moving, and every time i have to restart my life, my whole lifestyle, friends, family, habits, everything changes, and needs to be done all over again, I think i can write a manual, steps for restarting your life :)

but again, now that i am back to my home town, i am not settling, and i am not even close to settling, i've been away for so long that i am restarting life in my own home.

Settling sounds to me like the most exciting word, believe it or not, even with constant, recurring activities, it can still be an amazing feeling.

I can tell you that no matter how much you grow, you may still be able to re-discover yourself, find your true identity, who you really are, what you really wanna do, you keep recreating yourself.

Keep dreaming, it's what really pushes you forward through the day. nice Blog :)

Cheers,
Michel.

may be you need to go new places like you said...

or meet new interesting people that blow your mind with new or different approach to things ... or try yourself new approach to things you shut the door to before..

I know the feeling... when nothing amazes you anymore...!

anyways the fact is ... this routine is part of you ... when you break it somehow... you'll still miss it... as somehow it carry some beauty & warmth that you love but just became too accustomed to..!

I finally broke some routine, something new happened to me and i'm really gratefull for it, i'm planning on visiting some other country this summer, and my plants are growing..!!

El 2ahwagi, i agree with you, it's good, it's needed, but you need to break it everyonce in a while..I'm doing that now.
