The day is here....just one last day of living in Europe and then I will finally return home...It's been an exciting and difficult road all at once.
I have made so many discoveries about myself (isn't that why we North Americans head to Europe after all?). Well, here's a quick summation:
- I have made discoveries about people I loved (which have in essence made loving them impossible).
- I have realized that nothing is for certain.
- I have realized that it is possible to love with a broken heart.
- I have realized that just because someone knows something you don't, doesn't mean they're able to give you that information (it's about HOW things are taught, not WHAT is taught).
- School is that last place one should go to get an education
- I have always maintained that I am the luckiest girl in the world...and again it's proved to be true. Everywhere I go, I am able to have the most meaningful new friendships.
- I have become much more independent than I ever thought I could be and yet my family is still the most important to me.
- I have accepted that being a singer comes with an expiry date...but have discovered that artistry does not
- I have discovered that passion is like a flame, it needs feeding
- Rules are made to be broken (unless someone gets hurt...then it's not worth it)
- Sometimes giving someone else space is the best thing you can do for yourself
- As free-spirited as I am...there is still a traditionalist in me (when it comes to love and romance)
- Love knows no distance, disregards convenience and never considers time
- Loving a person isn't a choice, committing to a person is....one can't regret loving, one can regret committing...or at least continuing to commit
Goodbye Amsterdam, it's been an adventurous 4 years. I'm off to my next adventure.
