It's been another week since my last ponders appeared here, and looks like it was far too long for anyone to bother reading, much less to even comment! haha, not that i'm fretting over it, but i guess it wasn't generally persuasive enough to start a conversation about what people think about equilibriums in life other than in the context of economics. Just this past week i was reading about how a rugby league player was kicked out off the sport for punching a woman's face and breaking her nose. I'm against violence against women, but being de-registered from the sport, banned from joining any other club, is similar to a capital punishment. Is that too harsh, or the perfect message to spread about the extend that society is willing to punish violence against women? I'm saying that because some other criminals do get a 2nd chance at life too. Too bad we don't live in a perfect world.
Now, the past week, God has been really kind to me. To some extent, work was kind to me too. The exquisite thing about working at Chinta Ria is that you can meet some very prominent people in Sydney, i won't name names just yet, but last Monday i was introduced to some very extendingly kind people. It was fun joking around with them, tempting them with more beers every passing glance, since it was one of the blokes' birthday. A real welcome indeed, at the fore of it, when the birthday bloke was taunted by his mate saying, "Do you wanna start with 5 beers while waiting for the others?".
"That's deadly," i said, and subsequently whispering, "mate".
I won't bore you with further gibberish, but i felt more than content to serve them, almost a pleasure with their constant laughter and fun-poking involving me as well. What further filled my day was the fact that while collecting their bill, i was to find out from them that they were themselves owners of a nice establishment with a firm group of supporters around Sydney. Strangers With Candy. It's rather catchy, and jovial, i can almost picture the atmosphere that would surround the place.
It may not be much, the extending of an invitation for me to spill back the tips they so gracefully offered, but it just made my day. It's like one of those times, where you found a terrific secret that you can't just keep to yourself, the times like finding a place where you would be so excited to explore about. It's almost like finding a treasure if i may say so, that you would like to discover it once and for all and then tell others about it and bask in all the glories of having found a beauty of a thing.
Some thing of this magnitude came upon me that time i was in Watson's Bay, Sydney. Absolutely beautiful, it's not the best, but beautiful nonetheless. And some things you just feel like it. Don't ask me why.
But tell me other enthusiastic explorations you have gone for just based on your gut feelings. To stumble upon something that stirs up this kinda feeling is just treasure to me.
