Perhaps I have been here so long that I have stopped seeing novelty around me. This is my fourth year abroad in the last five. When you've seen babies going to the bathroom out the car window an uncountable number of times, it loses a lot of its newsworthiness.
Another aspect is that what is left to share is more of my private life. My struggles with choosing a career, accepting that I'm not meant to be an investment banker/doctor/engineer, etc. Often times I myself don't terribly love reading about the mess in other people's lives. Why would they want to read about it mine? And beyond that, why would I want to admit setbacks and challenges in such a public space? Why make myself vulnerable when it is increasingly clear to me that competition in the world is brutal, vicious and impolite? And I am a very polite person, so sometimes the game almost seems unfair.
But the good news here is that I am extremely happy with my life right now. As happy as I've ever been with it, at least in the last 5 years. And that's a blessing. And it's also the result of making the right choice on tough decisions and temptations. Not to curse my next move.
So yes, a blog update for you. I hope it was scintillating.
