Just a thought

Just a thought

I realised today that it has been so long since I posted in my blog. Not so good. I am such a lazy person, even when it comes to things I enjoy.

Anyhow, now i feel like putting some thoughts on paper, uh, I mean in writing.

Being a bilingual person, actually tri., but that is not the point. The point is Being exposed to more than your own culture. Not just through language, but also living surroundings. I am from one place by nationality, or I was and living in a another. I have learnt and was interested in western culture from an early age. Add to that a natural inclination to question everything I hear. All that always leads to being more open minded and understanding of other people’s feelings, emotions and motives.

I noticed other people who did not and were not under the same influences and I couldn’t help but appreciate the advantages of their situation. They seem quicker at deciding on matters and issues. And when they express their opinions on a subject it is usually direct and precise to their own thoughts.

I find myself in discussions, always try to represent so many ideas rather than just one. So I would go on listing all kinds of different circumstances and points of view and various approaches to the topic. And in many times I don’t put my own conclusion on the topic. Because even for me many things in life seem relevant and it is very rarely that I find an issue that is one directional.

This seems to me to give the other type of people some ease. I do wish sometimes that I don’t have to perpetually thinking about things.
