beauty...

|
Six months ago. I packed my things, said goodbyes and a few more see you laters, then headed to a strange, unknown world that eventually became my sanctuary. The discovery, joy, humility, and kindness I have experienced in the last 184 days is enough to often take my breath away. And for that I am forever grateful. Through this I have realized we all share a common thread. No one really knows what may happen next year, or even what tomorrow holds. We can't predict the future, we can't be sure of what is yet to come. This can be scary. Life is easier when it's planned. It feels safer. But it is in the unknown that life becomes so beautiful. It is absolutely overwhelming how beautiful this life is.
