again I'm here...with a pencil,a grey and orange pencil...and I'm blabbing around, filling the few blank pages left on my notebook...
which makes me wonder :
how great is the feeling of achievement we seems to seek all of our lives ? i mean do we really spend our youth preparing for that one moment of glory that's sure to happen in some distant future if u play the growing up cards right ?
i think not...i think achievements happen every day...pulling off something you're not usually good at doing is an achievement,writing an acrostic poem that has nothing to do with it's title in less than an hour and in a writer's block phase is an achievement...
so i guess it's in the little things,but big enough in our eyes so they seem the most most important happenings for a while...
and i tell you this : take the time to appreciate every single thing happening coz well,building skyscrapers and putting a man on the moon are great achievements,but helping an old lady crossing the street when you're a self-absorbed bastard and getting an A in pottery class when you're clumsy like a turtle also are...

Yes....my friend...I hear you...
We do have little faith in our selves and little respect to what we do daily...
Up till a few months ago, I used to think that I am useless and that I have offered nothing to the world and that if I would die now no one will even miss me...
Then I looked at what I write, what I teach, what I say to one of my friends who need consolation...how I help my mom around when she needs me, then I realised getting one smile from these people is an achievement in itself.
Serge, you have done yours for today.
You are a great thinker at 21 I can't wait until I see you at 30, I am sure you will be a man of great intellect and depth!
I love this!!!
KEEP ON WRITING!!!
Love.
