I should be coding right now. Got a little standalone C program that I wanna write. But I’m not feeling it yet.
I am from Myanmar(Burma) and right now, there’s a military coup happening. People are in distress. We can’t sleep proper.
In life we have priorities. They are personal to us. We may share them, we may not.
But now I see that things can change. Perspectives can change. We believed, so strongly, that our priorities are concrete, but I would argue the counter.
I used to think that my life would be linear. I used to think my life is what I make of it. Get my high-school diploma, then college diploma, university degrees then enter a work force, save up to start my own little business to build and accumulate income streams, have a family, be a dad someday, teach my little kids about things that I should have known early or things that I should have only learnt very later in life, retire, live out the rest of my little old days and then, leave in peace.
Now, when there’s an external force that has a control over your life, things change. You want to be the master of your own little destiny in this vast universe. Now, you feel powerless.
But there is hope. Not certainty. But a little faint light that promises dark clouds will pass.
Till then, I should be happy…but I’m not.
