Can't help but being human

It is interesting to observe the different emotions fighting inside of myself when I walk down the familiar roads amongst montrealers. Past emotions and fears triggered due the the same outside stimulus I experienced before; conflicting with the current self.

I noticed the fear when I catch myself looking away or down feeling embarrassed or inferior whilst at the same time trying to force my current self to interact with the unknown physical stimuli. Visual, olfactory, auditory and kinestic.

The old self, is the self in my memory who interacted in the same condition in the past and it is a natural response that came without any thought… I realize that I'll have to reframe my mind and try to combine the current me with the new environment.

On a happy note. I succeeded in ordering a latte in perfect french. Not the low quebec slang french. But a quebec french with quebec accent that are more sophiscated than the average “ouai”. First phrase in french. “Un caffe latte s'il vous plait, pour emporter.”
