So... I had enough of blogging for a longer while, and now I guess I'm more or less back. Things are happening and I want to process them, in the best way that I know - writing. Because my friends are probably fed up with my letters, so is my diary (with my entries, I mean), I've decided to give myself another outlet.
My contract - I was librarian for a few years, so it happened, and worked pretty well for me - ended, and I have decided to actually do something intersting with my life.
I took a break from working and started thinking... and sight-seeing my lovely country, but to be honest, I was mostly at conventions for fans of fantasy, sci-fi and whatever they listed in their timetables ;) (and it was fun).
I even became a volunteer journalist for a website. It's going fine, but lately, I'm more of a reviser and updater than actual journalist. Don't mind it that much - after all, I found a full-time job in the city where I wanted to be.
And the city is lovely, truly lovely. Even the area where I live in, which is a bit on the suburbs side. Maybe especially instead of even. I mean, I love architecture and those all amazing buildings of the Old Town, but here is also nice. I have a landscape park as my neighbour. It means I've got a big city and I'm remaining close to the nature. Lovely deal if you ask me.
Also, what is the most important thing maybe, I've got my man. It took me five years. I was stubborn, incredibly stubborn, but now I have him, and that is all that matters to me. The last year dragged like hell, in the middle of it I was both sick from worry about him and at the same time determined to either have my way or walk away. The Deadline God obviously panicked, because by December we were together.
Of course there are issues. And there are difficult situations, but awhile ago I really though the ceiling is crashing down again, and now I see that bad things were necessary. I wish they didn't come from friends, but where else the unexpected betrayal comes from? Anyway, bad things allowed me to see clearer, decided what is important, what is fixable and what is gone for good... also, provided me with plains which became a common ground for me and new friends - I can understand them better and connect, by shared experience. Life is good again,
Wow, it was supposed to be a brief note... anyway, the whole point of this "brining up to speed" can be summed up as this naive comment that dreams really come true. But now I know it for a fact. I have my man, my city and a new job where I'm appreciated. Life is really good. As long as you dream.
Keep moving, keep dreaming. (jc)
