1 Day left: It's the final countdown...

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.
