normal life…
i really miss this kind of life i have…it’s been a while since i strutted my limbs and drained my brain because of several things and appointments i have to attend to…
a friend once phoned me that they really thought i was destined to work in a non-profit organization and progressive endeavors which i started (?), should i say, had realized way back in the university. i really don’t have an idea why i came to think like this — for the greater good and for humanitarian and altruistic purposes. it maybe is innate for human to feel good about other people and be of help to the less fortunate….my activism had truly made another person in me…
i like what I’m seeing right now in me…i enjoy being now… because i know that all the endeavors i am doing, how little they may be and how impractical it may seem to others, i am sure that they will create and leave at least an impact to those who i have worked with and had worked for especially the community.
i am not romanticizing my experience…nor i am making to be a thing of ivory-tower…i am just happy, correction, contented with this normal life i have right now. you might be wondering what normal life is to me — pretty simple actually. normal life to me is doing papers, brainstorming with a group of common cause, community works (though i am more into admin right now), eating when i only feel hunger, constant text with people of close relationship, spending time in my bed wandering off if not reading a book or reviewing a topic, BBQ nights with dormate and simple stuffs…that is normal to me.
