What I learned about maturity in 2019:
In 2019, I went back to school for practical nursing. There were 2 types of people.
- The older group who are ‘over young adulting almost heheh’ who might have children or came back to school later after doing something else first (uni, some uni, jobs, army, had fun)
- Young kids
I played with both groups.
I later learned the men that came back to school later in life to do nursing accepted the role of caretaker and were 1000% patient. Taking care of patients and children was too much as men so we sit back and wait till the crying stops. We accepted we had to wait everything out and let things cool with sick and yelling patients and children. We sit and wait.
The mature women knew they had to pursue nursing to learn new life skills and embark on a career. Basically they got old and realize life is not about fun no more.
The young kids, I could see almost through them. Some hid it well. They are young and ambitious and want to compete till they are 40. Life was somewhat like a game for them. They need to prove themselves in this world.
…
But after COVID and working in healthcare they realized life is somewhat like a shitshow … partially. Everyone wants attention in this world …
Some patients and children need so much attention and care and life is such a drag that some healthcare professional realize the might be more to life than competing in healthcare. You got to account for the people that need 1000% of your attention.
Like doctors are always on the ball most of the time to learn and grow to have the best possible lifestyles for their individual health and growth. They work and study their patients mainly. That is their role. They basically play the game of maintaining their health and sanity by studying the world as physicians.
But after awhile the patients you see are quite understandable and you can see why they suffer in society to have such disease and aliments. It is the system and you got to play with or against the system depending on your frequency if you want to do healthcare.
For a full South Vietnamese, you got to play the game of psychology and study the universe and the next one and maybe 2 others universes to play healthcare.
But I am born here in Oshawa in GM country so … I like building, cheap ice cream, ‘Double Doubles’, every donut, deep dish chocolate cake, my computer, high speed internet, tea, iced tea, iced coffees, every burger, tacos, seal blubber, snow …
…
My illness is that no one really like full South Vietnamese trying in society in Canada (we are opposite frequency to Northern countries). Society wants Vietnamese people serving soup and bread running restaurants mainly which is weird for me as a 2nd generation …
…
I went YOLO after realizing no Vietnamese from Vietnam studying and working in Canada did not want to marry a Vietnamese born in Canada in Canada. Two different thinking. Always fighting on what is right or wrong. More conflict than construction. I went YOLO and then found Vietnamese born in Canada later but still networked with Vietnamese from Vietnam for that bilateral growth …
…
I found that full South Vietnamese born in Canada act different from the Anglo-Saxons born here and other groups born here. People born in Canada makes people dislike and like everyone generally but there is still civility and growth, but it is tiring to go out in public when people just hate on people naturally.
We are all First Peoples if we are born here and at our core we want to live in the past before Columbus but have to act our race to construct and maintain our livelihood as the Old World is still full.
…
I get along with mainly Canadians that are mixed and partly French back in the day (junction people). This includes Canadians that are Polish ancestry too as they are also junction people.
But from my home in Oshawa I connect with Canadians, Mexicans, Americans, British, Germans and Russians in the New World and Old World who like to do what I like online without the physical face-to-face socializations.
From my home, I work online with same frequency friends. I guess that is what I get as a full South Vietnamese and that is good.
