Kodi mudagwiritsapo ntchito malo ochezera pakati pa anthu kuti mutseke dziko lapansi?

Ndimakonda kusirira mphaka wanga, Steve. Ndiwowonera, osati kutenga nawo mbali, ndipo ndimamva choncho.

Tsiku ndi tsiku, Steve amakhala pamalo opendekeka owala pafupi ndi khomo lakumaso kwathu, akumalowa ndikutentha komanso, akuyang'ana padziko lapansi kunja. Akuwoneka kuti akulandira gawo lagalasi pakati pake ndi Big Outside popanda mantha. Amakhala bwino pabwalo lake la dzuwa. Nthawi zina amalira phwiti yemwe adapanga chisa pazomera zomwe zidapachikidwa pakhonde lakutsogolo, koma kenako amabwerera kukalingalira za stoic.

Monga ndanenera: wowonera, osati kutenga nawo mbali.

Iyi ikhala ntchito yanga yolota.

Mliri unatseketsa dziko lathu lapansi, ndipo ndinadzigoneka pakama langa ndipo sindinakangane zakukhala kunyumba. Kudziika kwayokha kunachitika m'tauni yathu yaying'ono ndipo, palibe chomwe ndidadandaula nacho. Kulimba mtima kwanga kunandiphunzitsa, pafupifupi zaka zisanu ndi chimodzi zapitazo, kuti ndinali wolimba mtima, ndipo ndimatopa ndikumamenya nawo nkhondo. Chifukwa chake, kuchira kunandiphunzitsa momwe ndingakanile nthawi yomwe ndimafunikira komanso momwe ndingazindikire kukakamizidwa komanso kufunikira koti "de-anthu."

Koma kenako ... "kukakamizidwa" kwa anthu padziko lonse lapansi kudalipira. Ngakhale pakakhala mliri, ngakhale mutakhala kwaokha, kusandulika sikuyenera kulowa kumaliza kudzipatula, kapena "kukhala wodabwitsa," monga a Sophia Dembling ananenera m'mbali mwake The Introvert's Corner. Adalemba nkhaniyi mu 2013, ndi maupangiri othandiza otuluka ndi kutenga nawo mbali mdziko lapansi, ndipo titawerenga nkhaniyi tsopano, tikuwona momwe dziko lathu lasinthira. Mu 2020, kupendekera kunakhala chizolowezi chopemphedwa. Onjezerani pamenepo, mantha ochulukirapo, nkhawa, ndi matenda owopsa, ndipo zidapangitsa kuti mukhale chete pazenera, ndikuyang'ana panja, osayang'ana panja.

Komabe. Kudzipatula kumavulaza. Apo wakhala kukhala njira yochitira izi, tsopano. Tiyenera kungofika "kunja uko," osati kungoyang'ana. Kutenga nawo gawo ndikofunikira pamathanzi athu. Ngati sindiyesa kutenga nawo mbali mdziko langa, gwirani ntchito mkati izo, osati chabe ngakhale za izo, ndimakhala ndi chifunga kwambiri.

Ndipo komabe ndikulimbana. Tsopano, ndikupeza kusowa kwa masks m'sitolo ndikuwopa, ndikudodometsa komanso kusokoneza momwe ndimamvera masks chaka chapitacho. Ndikufunabe kubisala. Pali masiku omwe ndimakhala ndikulakalaka kuti ndisiye mapulani. Kuswa malonjezo anga. Kungoyang'ana padziko lapansi.

Dzikoli silongoyang'ana. Siyojambula yopanda moyo pakhoma, pomwe timangoyang'anitsitsa ndikuyang'ana ndipo mwina timapendeketsa mutu wathu ndikudzudzula. Dziko lapansi ndi logwirizana. Chilengedwe. Kuchita nawo. Kusokonezeka. Kupeza kunja Apo. Ndipo inde, ndikudziwa kuti zinthu zonsezi zimamveka ngati zili patsamba lochititsa chidwi. Nthawi zonse ndimakhala ndi zikwangwani zolimbikitsa koma komabe, ali ndi mphindi ndi psyche anga masiku ano.

Ndikulemba izi, Steve amakhala pamapazi anga ndikundisinthana ngati ndingasunthe konse. Ndimasewera oyipa kwa iye, ndipo zimandilimbikitsa (sans poster) kuti ndikhale pampando wanga mpaka nkhaniyi itatha. Nditangomaliza kumene, ndikukumana ndi mnzanga kuti ndiyende.

Zomwe ndidachita koyamba atandipempha kuti ndipite? Zala zanga zinkagwedezeka pafoni yanga, ndikulakalaka kulemba chifukwa chomveka. Kuusa moyo. Kuyenda kungakhale kwabwino ... koma ... ndikulankhula ndi zina. Mwinamwake pamene ine ... ndikumverera kwambiri ngati izo? Kunena zowona, sindimadumpha mwayi wocheza ndi wina aliyense. Ine pafupifupi konse "ndimamva ngati izo." Komanso moona? Nthawi zambiri ndimakhala bwino pambuyo pake ndikatero. Zili ngati mavitamini. Ndiyenera kuphunzitsa anzanga tsiku lililonse.

Kwa ife omwe tidalira kwambiri kutalikirana ndi anthu chaka chatha, musachedwe. Steve, akamutulutsa panja, amangokhala sitepe yakutsogolo ndikungoyendetsa fumbi pang'ono. Samathamangira ku Vegas. Otsatira athu titha kukhala ngati Steve. Osakonzekera phwando la kubadwa ku Chuckie Cheese * kapena kusungitsa ndege kapena ngakhale kugula ku sitolo ya Big Box mpaka titadzimva okonzeka. Gawo loyamba kwa ine lidali kuzindikira chizolowezi changa chodzipatula ngati chisankho choyamba. Ngati tikufunikiradi kuti 2021 ikhale yathanzi komanso yatsopano, popeza dziko lathu lochedwa postpandemic layamba kuyembekezeranso, kudzipatula sikungakhale chizolowezi.

* Pafupifupi onse azaumoyo samalimbikitsa a Chuckie Tchizi ngati gawo lililonse lamakhalidwe abwino. Mukamadziwa zambiri.
