Winter is over



While the Spring is coming on the Northern Hemisphere, here in the middle of the equatorial line the weather continues quite similar to how it has been since past December.
Sometimes I think that it's quite unfortunate that Colombia counts with no seasons such as the ones that happen in both hemispheres. Of course its a blessing to not have terrible colds like those from Canada, Scandinavia, or Russia, however I believe that the seasons make wonders in moulding the personalities of the people, and helping them reconnect with the spiritualistic aspect of the communication with nature.

Perhaps that's even the cause to why the country moves so slowly, even seeming to be frozen sometimes. Political problems take centuries to resolve, and overall people seem to never change, and keep being the same over the years. In my case, I think I'm tired of the season I've been living for a while in my life, and I'm willing to open the doors for a new auspicious season. As an event to mark the beginning of it, I'm selling my tv and playstation 3 :D It seems to me that of lately playing videogames has become a guilty pleasure, just like pizza. Both have come to the point that the guilty feeling overcomes the pleasure, so what's the point in keep doing the same?

I believe that is certainly difficult to get over the computer and the internet, but at least I want to get rid of the other electric stuff. Plus I want to be consequent! If I'm against consumerism and the fake global society it has created, then I have to stop being part of it not through making speeches against it, but leaving the practice!


Soon I'll be writing again, until then!
