The past 2 weeks or so have been the best two weeks of my life. Possibly.
Not because everything has gone my way, as a matter of fact, I think things have gone the opposite of what I wanted, but the outcomes have been what I needed.
I don't know if anything around me as changed or I've just gained a new outlook on life. I'm thinking it's the latter. I had this epiphany a few weeks ago, and I called Tim the second it hit me;
I don't know who I am. I really don't. I'm sure somewhere deep inside, I'm there, but it's been a struggle to find out. I was someone different with everyone I knew, and I was pretty sick of it. So that night, I promised to just be who I wanted when I wanted and not care if it was gonna make people uncomfortable or not. To my surprise, I feel like people actually enjoy my company more now than ever.
Maybe that was the start of it, but after that, things have been great. That's an understatement.
When surprises come my way, I grab it and swing it around and toss it. Like it's some kind of sport. Haha, it's refreshing. Life changing, almost. I don't want to get ahead of myself.
Another reason for this change has been the passing of my friend Tinh. I never thought how blessed I was to be alive until someone I knew, someone I talked to, passed away. It was like a brick thrown at my head. I'm not trying to take anything away from Tinh, but all I can do is thank him. Thank him for allowing good to come from bad. For this, I love him. More now than ever.
And to those wonderful, beautiful, patient people who have helped me and given me their time and undivided attention; Grisel Torres, Timothy long and Cindy Le.
Thanks much.
