Some Thoughts Lately
For some time now, I'm feeling drained. I lost any sort of appetite for recognition — something I eagerly sought throughout the years. Partly due to the feeling of being left behind and the inability to keep up with all the trends and advancements. Or it's just because I am slowly aging and gradually losing more energy to polish my LinkedIn profile.
I will turn 37 this August (insha Allah). I've been quite lazy recently to utilise my brain up to its optimal level. I just completed my reading of Kahneman's Noise (which took me almost 2 years to complete) and now am reluctantly reading more serious books — something that's not very typical of me.
I've been developing a fascination towards more story-like books: novels, short stories, and other artistic literature. In particular, I have started reading Indonesian novels with marginal themes such as Orang-Orang Proyek. I found myself enjoying Animal Farm too.
I don't know. Perhaps I need to try to do new things, or simply keep some distance from my routines.
But for now, we'll see where the winds will blow and take me.
Let me get back to you when all of this passes. Or turns out to be permanent.
