From Feker to Rihana - End of December

Yene Fikir,

Let's raise our glasses to yet another brilliant idea
of yours. Beijigu ismamalew, we sooooooooooooo need to
continue doin what we do best, philosophizing be bado
meda ... lol ... and THAT's why we have the best of
both worlds yene wud. I was leafing through a copy of
"addis admas" my uncle brought from back home and this
guy, i think he's the head of yared music timirt bet
or somethin but in his interview, when asked who he
admired in this world, he replied, 'too many to count
and amongst them, there are people who are neither
famous nor rich'. Going back to the concept of being a
positive force in this world. He also said 'i never
knew hating people took up so much energy ... leka
sewin bemewded ignaw nen minitekemew' ... the guy
sounds interesting. Bicha going back to our discussion
of being a positive force in this world. Mitish, even
in the past few days, I have encountered so many
things to make me cringe about my 'yedilot' nuro. And
yet, I look at my uncle and think, this guy is neither
educated nor rich but he is an inspiration. He works
too jobs, barely has time to sit down and chill with
us but oh mitish, satisfaction is written ALL over his
face. not blabber on about him but it got me thinkin.
And this also goes back to an episode of sex n the
city where Carry mentions how we are always waiting
for the ONE thing that will complete everything. The
ONE could be a guy, a job, a house, a car da da da ...
To get past that, to live to your OWN expectations
(which surprisingly are higher than our loved ones have
of us), to live the life you've always dreamed of, to
be that person in the room who makes others forget
about their problems even for a little while ... to be
all that mitish, we have to fight that MENGA amongst
MENGA fight, mediocrity in all its hideous forms. And
to that effect my love, our emails are an absolute
necessity. muaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah ... 'LE'n begugit
itebikalew ...
