Oh wow, it has been a while since I blogged, but then I had a few reasons. As you know, life is busy (actually chaotic), studies are full-on, work....you know, family commitments are there, friends are busy, you are busy, time is always a worry .....and so on. Mind you, I am still staying busy..... But then, I was thinking today, truly if one was not busy, one would be bored, maybe tired, maybe sleepy, maybe grumpy or maybe not. Every person experience different levels of boredomness, right? I might add, it would be nice in a while (maybe once in a blue moon) to be bored.....so I am waiting for that moment. Unfortunately, it has not arrived yet.
OK, so I was thinking a bit further, what if I am really bored, where would I go, what would I do? Do I have to do something? Would I be socially acceptable if I don't do something? What about the 'social expectations' guidelines'? Does it really matter?

A light bulb moment.....if a person could just for one moment relax.... unwind.... and think where they can think. They will soon discover that a library (in the mist of chaos) is still the place to go to relax, and to rest the mind. It is a place where you can look bored, be quiet (or not) or just be you.
That said, I cannot see myself without that backup support, that life-link that connects me to books (real books), history, memories, sadness, laughter....real moments. That's what count, right?
Hope you will also find a library in your chaotic life :)
