Arctica, Antarctica

How come when you are back home and you don't feel it like home? How is it to feel foreign in your own place, when you have never left for over a month?

The people is not like you, you don't feel them as if you can fit again with them. When you feel that you cannot fight anymore with the disdain, with the apathy, with the bipolarity. Maybe it is because you are bipolar as well, one day you have all the eagerness in the world to help them (us), to know that it CAN be done. But the next day, or probably the same day you come down to the idea that it is useless, that nothing can indeed, be done.

Maybe this bipolar disorder comes because you are commanded to take a shower in 3 minutes, or maybe because your boyfriend was robbed on his way to visit you. And that very same day, you witness again the great weather, the beautiful mountains and beaches and say to yourself again "tourism will proceed in this country, and I will help to make it come true".

Bipolarity.

Today I want to help. Today I want to be a member of the Parliament, I want to be Minister, I even want to be President. Today I have a shredded country and I feel like I have the glue and the colors to put it together and beautifully.

Today when Professors stopped teaching because they do not get paid. Today when our education seems severely threatened. Today something CAN BE DONE.

Something NEEDS to be done, URGES to be done.

Will you join me?
