Case of the Monday Blues?

I have no clue what is going on..but I don't like. My week so far is about as exciting as watching a table rag in your kitchen..I've ogt mental, writing, and generally excitement BLOCK! I feel soo tired of the seeing the same people at work & in the neighborhood everyday, eating the same ol food, working on the same little projects, studying the same damn textbook, reading the same damn novel. Blogging might be the only remaining thing I find mildly stimulating. No clue what is going on..I feel like I need to be zapped with two electrodes and get back into gear. the bleak, grey Montreal weather doesn't help either. A friend suggested traveling..getting out of this box of mine..which I think is a good suggestion, but for now I need a quick fix man..I'm a pretty intense, energized guy usually..this foreign feeling is very bizarre...so SOS call..

*On a less eccentric note, Wangu your blog on Love got me thinking...doesnt happen very often so I am thankful hehe..Love love love..Does love exist?all the cheesy crap aside -
Love exists because we have an innate nature to have a fondness(for whatever), otherwise. We were purposely made incomplete..so the need for love, and the need to love are so tightly bound to our constitution, it is almost gives us a finite reason for existence alone.
I'm trying to understand this love thing. DON'T. I feel society(media, hollywood,music) forces us to overanalyze what love is, and how to get it. It is somehwere in human nature and man's relentless quest into the unknown..but Love is one of those things that the more we try find out about the less we find out. Allowing oneself the experience of Love is most key. The power of Love is one of those very few things that are none depleting..u know, like a smile, an idea, a shared candle, that dont diminish when given, and is independent and undiscriminating of the objects that it was applied to..i.e I can love u whtther u like it or not, whtether u know or not. So to answer your question on hearbreak, that sense of loss when love and life dont follow the same path...I think it is too much of a focus on the object, rather on the fact that you loved. YOur love hasnt gone anywhere..u just feel that loss. I think moving on has a great deal to do with this..realising that the most important thing is that YOU LOVED, and not that that love has been betrayed (or whatever the casue fo the breakup). The fact that 'U experienced love', that u were a vessel and a meduim of it is HUGE importance to who we are and how we percieve ourselves..Becasue thats all life is about(proogressive life at least)..the endless pursuit to making ourselves better(whatever your "better" means) people. Love,in this way, gives us a form of fulfilment..makes us stronger people. So hearbreak is really nuthing but that bruise after tripping over while jogging..jogging sure gets me in shape though so I'll keep my focus on that. Where I get all this from????? Well Wangu, it is no secret you broke my heart remember..(lets not even go back to circa 1994 lol toooo painful & running out of tissue huku)
Can you love someone and not love them almost in the same instant? to quote Chris Rock, you know you've not been in love if you havent contemplated murder bana..If you havent practiced your alibi in the mirror haha..you aint been in love.
Not sure I have a semblance of sense int hat rabling..but hey, I tried.

*Maze There's an opportunity for me to be a Swahili tutor for some chap who wants to travel there i think..Kinda not sure about my ability bana..I was thinking if the swahili staff at Starehe /mr mirobi ound out public demosstrations would be organized !! I havent practised in a while so I run the risk of make a complete buffoon of myself(and being a terrible representative of our country) in the process..then again I like to think of myself as a risk taker..If worst come to worst..jamaa will be fluent in sheng hehe..same difference for the guy !! You guys probly heard Microsoft finally released the completely translated Swahili version of Windows...I friend sent this to me i pasuad bana but on the real..i realised how bad my lugha was and how hard it will be for system admins in future bana..enjoy..
