So
much has happened in the last two months that's it's difficult for me
to decide what to write about first. I've been exploring my birth
country with my father for possibly the last time which brings mixed
emotions. I've been happy, sad, lonely, overwhelmed, excited and
scared sometimes all in one day. I've hatched big plans, struggled
with my inner demons, learnt things about myself and what I mean to
others and ultimately come to the conclusion that my life is for me
to live while I can. After all what am I waiting for? The prince
charming who doesn't exist? For me to win a million on lotto even
though I don't buy tickets? For the right time....
The
right time never really seems to arrive, yet in reflection I can find
no reason for it ever being the wrong time, it is just time and it
will also be just time. You never know if it's right or wrong until
you do it and I read a quote recently that really struck a chord with
me so I thought I'd share it.
“It's
a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you're ready. I have
this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything.
There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now. And you
may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as
any.”
On that note I have decided to move
to England for a year to stay with my family. Why now? Why not! I
don't really have a plan for my life except that I want to do
something that makes me happy and I don't quite seem to be achieving
that here. Chances are I won't find what I'm looking for in the UK
either but I am still young and healthy and I'd like to see some more
of Europe so I'm just going to go for it. There are things here that
I will miss and certain people but they will be here when I return.
Or perhaps not, but that's just a chance that you have to take when
you travel. After all there are things and people in England that I
miss while I am here so I never win really!
So stay tuned for further news of my
up coming adventures and in the mean time I will tell you some
stories from the places I have been in the last two months.
This runs through my head all the time. The thing stopping me is money mostly,I think. I feel I need to see more of the world. Like, lots more of it! Even if you go back home (where ever that is) without achieving anything but travel, I think that's perfect. I can't tell if I'm just trying to escape my job though ;d
