The 5 months that was...


5 months have passed. Wow, it is almost the middle of the year. What did I do so far? As usual, nothing much. Nothing has improved. Still the usual me only a year older hopefully a full year more mature.

I wonder if I can ever be tamed. Someone almost did,but as usual, she disappeared. I don't want to be tamed now. This is what I do and this is what I will be.

For the past five months there were some changes though...Let's see, to recall...Let's start on January...I started losing weight. Did a dare with someone that I could lose a lot of weight in just 2 weeks. I was able to prove that it can be done. Then before the month ended, I found my way into the kickboxing gym again. Not long after that, sometime on February, I went in the ring and fought 5 fighters in one night. No practise, no work-out, just all in the mind...stupid mind. After the fight,kinda like a tune-up fight, I found out later that i got injured. I broke 2 ribs and tore some musles somewhere on my right rib side. Undergone a therapy because of that and it limited my movement.

March was hell and so was April then May came and I was officially part of system. Meaning! I was able to get a birth certificate! And then i can get a passport. I have an identity!

Prior to that somewhere on April I got apprehended by traffic police because i did not follow some traffic signs. A really stupid one, and more than a moron because i was driving with an expired license. I could have be sent to jail. Luckily the officer let me go with a warning and urged me to renew my driver's license. Which I did and was absent for 2 days in the process. I hate to be absent.

So far, it is the middle of May now. I was suppose to join a 5kilometer open water swimming competition but failed to do so. I did not have enough practise but i did swim again in the middle of a strong rain. I was hoping that a storm would be there on a weekend. Nevertheless, i did enjoy the wave, drank some salty water,burn me eyes, but the feelings of being so free and just let the will of the wave carry you is elating. I will do it again soon...swim in the middle of a thunderstorm. Do I have a death wish? Of course none! This is just the way I celebrate life.

It is almost half-way of the year...let's see what the other half could bring me.

This is what I live by...Learn the lessons of the past, live the present for they will be your past soon, a treasure and let the future take care of itself. The future also depends on what you do today.
