3 months ago"Indecision is often worse than wrong action"-
The above words of Henry Ford made me thinking again a bit on my decision to move to Berlin. For more than a year I’ve been planning my relocation. The reasons: more opportunities, boyfriends - earlier the ex- and now the present one, a more open, mixed and colorful metropolitan society, wide offer of entertainment, and of course good friends plus it’s not so far away from my home city Szczecin.
So, this thinking confronted with the potentially problematic situation of settling legally in another city, which is so close to Szczecin, but technically in another country. Even though we’re in the EU, this brings a lot of legal issues with the whole operation.
I then realised that even more obstacles remained uninvestigated, what lead to more questions - “when would I like to move?”, “what would I do there for living?”, “where and how would I want to live?”,… and finally “shall I actually do it?!”
It seemed the more I looked into the problem, the more questions appeared :-( In that way instead of getting closer and closer to the “bear-city”, it seems I’m getting buried under more and more stuff to solve.

Should I stay or should I go?
Yet another site is tempting me again to start a blog! It looks really cool and inviting… better than the existing competition. So in few easy steps I’ve set up a blog, which you are just reading.
At first I was wondering what to blog about here. Over the last two years, I have had a few blog concept ideas:
- “Z wiatrem w żaglach” [“With wind in the sails”] (in Polish) - a news-blog with information about future projects concerning developement of the city of Szczecin
- jedynski.pl (in Polish) - private thoughts about ideas & concepts for Szczecin covering multiple areas of urban life from the perspective of the green citizen-friendly city development approach, presented in articles (also in the local media)
- hep_Cide’wns (in English) - the ups & downs with the hepatis C side effect - a diary of my own struggle with the virus
and so in the end I was left with…
- bambi_punk [which has just suddenly renamed from rt69 leaving that for future idea coverage] (in English) - my loose, private, daily thoughts which I would share like some of my friends do
“Do I actually have anything interesting to write here?” - I thought. Is someone going to read it? Or maybe I should just do it for myself to leave a written trace of what I’m experiencing.
I was running a diary for few years in my high school years. Those were daily pen written entries in a paper book-calendar. Yes, times when no one heard of blogs!
Finally as an answer to my internal debate a word ”indecisive” came to me :-/
Trying to solve it a new way, I took a closer look on some wise quotes connected with this term. Quite a few of them link very well with recent “events” in my life. And so below there’ll appear a series of chosen relevant quotes with my personal annotations.
