The Purpose of the Dimples

Over six months in Australia!
Someone has noticed I haven't been updating my blog for a while. The reason is simple: surely I can say, "I'm not bored"

Well, this post has been in a draft status for several weeks now: reading it back, trying to make it short but at the same time putting together the whole I have been up to in the last 3 months... and so the list could only get longer! But then, what's the purpose?

I should tell you about the Australian day (Jan 26th) with its fireworks and so much of the relaxing Australian culture... or maybe about all the outdoor activities and sports I have been doing: loads of fun with the beach volley, tennis, squash, swimming... I even joined a rugby club...

I should tell you about the one day trip to the Royal Nation Park with great company and wonderful hike through vegetation and beach; Another nice day was in Central Cost at Steve's... then the Latin festival in Bondi reminding me that I ended up Down Under willing to go to Latin America. I should mention the Shakespeare's open-air theatre experiences... oh, what about my acting classes with my very first, thought short, performance? What a success...

And the Tropfest I had been hearing about since my arrival? It ended it in heavy rain... Or how cool it has been getting some free theatre ticket by being for a couple of nights a bar buddy?!

Then we had dinners, birthdays, drinks, and social events... I'm going to the movies and I'm reading books. I should tell you about my job, the people I work with and the pleasure I have coming to the office, no matter if it's a Monday or a P.O.E.T.I.S (Piss Off Early, Tomorrow Is Saturday)!!

Oh yeah, life is going great... I'm not bored and this post could go ahead forever, with a long list of things done and many words maybe boring to read.

But then, again, what's the purpose?
Hmm... I sit here trying to understand it myself... Already some years ago I learned that the world is a wonderful place, but what makes our experience in here worth are the people we meet and decide to be surrounded by.

So, lately I have been hosting my sister with her boyfriend... we had great time and I even enjoyed fighting with her over stupid things. Lately I have been shown how friendship overcomes long distances. Lately, when the shock of an old friend's upcoming wedding arrived, I learned we are growing up, I learned we have passed many stages of life and I wonder in which one I'm in...

Sharing my life and allow people in is always a big temptation: a risky one... yeah, taking risk, living on the edge, thinking about the future, fearing the consequences of today's decisions... fate versus life control... the thoughts of your friends and relative: "What will they think? How would they react?" ...The need not to hurt anyone... being selfish because that what we all should be... rational versus passionate... I've been thinking, talking, writing... I have been feeling...

Is this all about my professional career? Is it about the place I want to live? Or is this just about a never-ending last kiss?
