An Inside View
I usually ask rhetorical questions in this blog - not letting too many of the details of my life be open to the public (not that I imagine too many people read this,) but I suppose that this entry will be a different as I have much to let out.
So in a few days I return to Israel. I left at the beginning of August and now it is almost November. So much has happened to me within those months - for those details you will have to inquire. I left Israel perhaps a bit naive and in my own la-la land, but now I return with my feet firmly planted on the ground and my head held very high.
These few months at home have been an opportunity for me to learn about myself. I have really remembered who I am, where I come from, and what my dreams are. I think that being so far away from home, I have been so caught up in fitting in and proving something, that I missed the whole point of going abroad to learn.
I have been nervous to go back, but I have received the advice from many a-person that worrying only creates ulcers - it doesn't change anything. So in an attempt to be happy and successful this year, I will be positive, open-minded, yet firm in my beliefs and confident with myself!
Okay, these affirmations are nothing new, but I have to repeat them to myself to assure myself that they will be accomplished. I have been known to be a big talked and for once I'd like to keep with all the talk and do something.
Some things are easier said than done, and some things simply cannot be done in the present for all sorts of various reasons. However if I keep up with this attitude I am sure that I will have a successful and lovely year. (How Kitchy?)
