Not only that I am feeling this stinging guilt towards my
babies (yep, my dogs), I also realize that I have not been a good companion for
most of my dearests! It's sad that we complain a lot about not having enough
time whilst at the same time knowing that just the exact amount of hours, minutes
and seconds were given to majestic people like Beethoven, Gandhi, or a great author
in my country Pramoedya Ananta Toer. And they did amazing things in life; the
world today is not the same without them and what they did is still is making a
positive viral affect.
And look here I am, nagging, whining and complaining for having not enough energy to read, to walk my dogs or to simply enjoy a cup of
coffee without having this rambling thoughts in my head "Mmm.. I have not done
this, I have to check that... errr did I pay that already?.. shoot, what time
is it ?!"
This article came to the rescue. I just read them word.by.word and now am feeling a lot better. I think, I am not that bad. All the samples stated does sound familiar to me. For example, cotton-candy looking sky still make me stop for a minute or two, waggy dogs still make me so happy I want to kiss them in the face, I still enjoy my time alone... and I still am a firm believer that almost everything can turn into something better with good music.
