Freedom of a Wandering Heart

Haha, my titles are getting more and more flamboyant, but please don't let it bother. I feel I have something to say, and I try to keep my enthusiasm within certain limits.

One of my biggest beliefs at the moment is, that one can learn something from each person that comes across. It could be something very concrete, like learning how to tie a Sailor's knot, or something completely different, like a feeling you get after talking to someone wise. It is also possible to reach an understanding of a fact that you will never become bitter or ignoratnt, if you meet a person who is those things. But as I said, something can be learned almost from everybody.

So how does this sound: what would happen if person, who is eager to learn tries just that. To learn something, consciously, from people she meets? What if she (or he), for example when traveling, first meets a bartender, and just ask "i'm here to learn, i hope there's something you would like to teach me?". Maybe she learns something from a bartender, like how to draught a beer. Then she could ask him if he knows someone, who knows something really worth learning. And the chain could go on and on and on... This is a very charming idea. It is in free usage, so go for if, if you desire. I know i will.

Today I realized that I am free. I can't describe the feeling I got. In nine months' time this working contract will due, and as greatful as I am about the opportunity that I got 18months ago, I know it is time to move on. I don't feel any anxioty about the fact that I have no idea what I'm going to do next fall. I just feel happiness of the freedom to choose. I know, that if I just listen, at some point I'm going to know what I'm ought to do.
