Being in Winnipeg reminds me not to be too wrapped up in myself

November 11, 2008 by vongsundara 

Being in Winnipeg the past couple of days has reminded me of how easy it is to get too wrapped up in myself. When I’m in Winnipeg, I’m a brother, I’m a son, I’m an uncle. I have responsibilities and am part of a larger community.

Now, I tend to be fairly ego-centric in nature anyhow. I’ve always been better at singles sports like badminton and tennis. My career dictates that I concentrate on myself for many hours: both for writing and for performing. That being said, it was indeed very nice to have to worry about something and someone other than myself.

My parents are very likely going to move to Guelph in the coming year. Hopefully, this will help keep me centred. Either that or I’ll have to visit Winnipeg more often.
