Adventure is out there

I didn’t expect life to turn out this way, but then again I should really be used to it by now.

2 years since the world needed to recalibrate, I’ve been back in England for a year, and things feel like they’re slowly going into place. It’s taking its time as always which is how it should be for now, I feel like any sudden moves would rattle the pieces too much.

Looking back at all the things written here, it all feels like they were written by a different person from a time too far removed from my memory now. They’re little time capsules of who I was, and a good testament of growth on my part, or at least that’s how I would like to see it.

Many things have been said and done, places have been visited and revisited, hugs shared with friends and loved ones (when its permitted by social distancing rules of course), and despite 2021 being a complete mind-fuck, I found myself liking where it was taking me.

Someone told me that now that I’ve had my time being angry, sad, and scared, I should let myself be happy-to take it all in without the fear of things falling apart at any given moment. This means allowing myself to trust the people around me, open myself to everything that comes my way, and to trust myself as well. It’s been a long time since I did just that and it’s scary, but why not.

It’s too early to tell how this year’s gonna be but the view looks good from here, so for now I’ll enjoy the ride.

To more adventures and coffee
