So it’s been a while since my last post. I find myself desk bound on a dark October afternoon desperately trying to study for an exam, and in an attempt to break from it I have turned back to my long forgotten blog.
Reflecting on the time that’s passed since my last post and I’m amazed by how much has happened in life and how much my life has changed:
- I’ve seen so much more of the world and being inspired by its beauty
- I’ve pushed myself to do things I never though I could
- I’ve fought to get the career I wanted and I’m working to develop my knowledge and skills
- I’ve felt the grief as life ends and the happiness as other begin
- I’ve shed so many tears, but I’ve laughed and smiled too
- I’ve had my heart-broken and I’m learning how to put it back together and to look to the future
- I’ve learnt what true friendship means
- I’ve met new people and made new friends.
I’m trying to seize every opportunity as I don’t be somebody that just sleepwalks through life – I want to live it. I want to look back when I’m old and know I did life justice.
I don’t want to live life cautiously. I want to continue to push myself outside of my comfort zone to experience what life has to offer me. This past year alone has made me realize more than ever that every day is a gift and you don’t know how lucky you are until you lose the people who make you happy – the ones you always take for granted.
