An end. A new beginning.
For a long time now, my blog as been left dormant. I just realised that I ones made this statement ones before in some old postings. Anyway, I really should start on with my blog again. I have titled this blog "An end. A new beginning" because its been a while now since I left Indonesia and now I am in New Zealand. I did face a hell of a hassle to get out of the Indonesia borders with all the bureaucracy issues in the country, but that is all past tense now.
So now I am in New Zealand and everything is a complete difference from what I experienced in Indonesia. Please note that every country has got their own unique features; specifically I do miss Indonesia a great deal. But thats not the point of this posting.
I had worked with a team of 3 awesome guys in my term in Indonesia. These guys made me see things in a new perspective. This people now have become life long friends for me. Now I work with another set of people whom even though I have work with already for 3 months I am still getting to know them more. It feels like a new beginning for me. Feels like everything should be lived all over again. Like nothing existed before. Like I am re-born into a new reality and made to start things afresh. This feeling is I can refer to as 'a new beginning'.
One good think that AIESEC has and is still giving me is this opportunity to see things from a global perspective; to work with people from different backgrounds, countries, beliefs and values. This makes me think back of this day before I joined AIESEC, how lackadaisically lived my life was, always dependent on my family, in a comfort zone that had provided me with everything I needed. Who would have ever imagined that i could be able to leave home, now thousands of miles away.
I don't really have much to say right now. Maybe because its 1.40am and I just cant think anymore. One thing I can say is this - I am back!
I'm sure in the morning I should be able to be more composed to render more useful things into my blog.
