It's the year of the ox my sign. At the start of the year, I said that the year was going to be great. Everything was going to go my way. In a way it did, but in so many ways it didn't. Over half of the year of the ox is over and alreay so much has happened. The most crucial thing that has happened to me is that I have grown significantly.
A friend of mine once told me "People grow the most when they fall in and out of love. The only thing is that when people fall out of love they can really see and feel the change." I think that we grow more falling out of love not just because we feel the change, but because we have to recreate ourselves in some way shape or form. This year, I've had the privilage of falling both in and out of love.
In the midst of all the dispair, anguish, and depression somehow I kept trucking, like so many others. It wasn't all that bad, was it? Today I realized that everything worked itself out. Life went on. There will always be another girl. There will always be another love. And I will continue to grow. I forgot to ask myself one question when I was down "What is the purpose of this?" We often don't remember to ask ourselves this question, but it is crucial to development.
Everything in life happens for a reason. When your in the "Shit" or "Down in the dumps" remember to ask yourself why. It's hard to realize but a few months after all the pain and drama you'll realize it wasn't all for nothing and there was a higher reason.
Thanks to everyone who inspired me in HK and Thailand this trip. I know what I need to do next year.
