thats what i ge to hear quite often here. where were you living, in the middle of nowhere?? the context is that i usually am not aware of various topics of discussions such as music bands, artists, tourist destinations, festivals, films, and even companies sometimes. i am unaware of common terms and gross terms, of wild adventures and accepted twists of fate and behaviour.
but i did live in the middle of nowhere. nowhere as big as here, nowhere as fast as here, nowhere as complicated and cutthroat. i lived in a dreamworld, where 15 min drive meant a distance far away, where a walk to the bazar meant having an evening out. where having meals with family, hot and fresh was the most important obligation to fulfill for the day. where a rain shower could sprinkle my face in my balcony and i always had time to walk straight into it.
my nowhere did teach me somethings. values and principles. simple living. reading good books. being nice to people. importance of balance in life. sense of adapting to different people, being in their shoes and thinking from their perspective. respecting nature and the mysteries of life. being good and spreading good. wonder why when i think about settling long term, i think about going back to nowhere..
