The essence of life is not the atoms and small molecules that go into us, it’s the way, the ordering, that those molecules are put together.

“Say you are huge look at the moon, look at the stars, look at the sun Look at the ocean and the desert and the mountains and the sky And say I am just a speck of dust inside a giant’s eye I am just a speck of dust inside a giant’s eye I am just a speck of dust inside a giant’s eye And I don’t wanna make her cry” 

These past few months have been a whirlwind of emotions. They have been filled with excitement, stress, joy, frustration, and anxiety. As most of my friends went away to college, I was left at home to take on my season of work before I embark on my journey to Asia. I got a little taste of the working life, which is tough and exhausting, but rewarding.

I’ve had much time to spend on my own over the past few months which was a blessing in disguise for me. I tend to keep myself busy with work, friends, or anything else that entertains me. It was a change of pace for me to have endless amounts of time to spend with my thoughts. This gave me much needed space to be honest with myself about where I am personally. I have learned some good, disappointing, and surprising things about myself. It has been a period of growth, rest, and reflection. These months were fundamental as I worked to reach some personal goals while preparing myself for my upcoming trip.
