Eat, Pray, Love: Part 2

I read this book at the airport and boy did it hit home. I am travelling and of course as life goes on, things happen, life changes, people change and you therefore change as well. But something about that book resided in me. I related to it so much and on so many different levels. It made me really think about what I wanted to do, where I wanted to be and the kind of person I wanted to be as well.

All that shit that you hang on to for so long, all the bad karma and all that jazz, I just had to let go. And that I did. It’s like a cheesy epiphany you hear about, where everything all of a sudden makes sense and it just clicks.

It clicked.

Again.

I have now had 2 of the “a-ha” moments in France, and I’m damn happy about it.
Going back to Ottawa in August will be a hell of a change. I will be living in Europe for 7.5 months, 222 days in total, and I will be different. As such when I get home things have to change. I will be purging the junk from my life. Starting with my room. Funny enough, I am that squirrel that holds onto everything thinking maybe sometime, someday, somewhere I’ll ‘use’ it. I know I won’t. So out with the old and in with the new. Making time for the people I love and making sure I am happy.

I’ll be starting a job and goodness knows that will be an adventure in and of itself. I can’t wait though, as strange as that thought is not going back to school right away, but hey, new people, new atmosphere and new things.

So bring it on life. I can handle it. And if I can’t…well I’ll figure it out, but for now I am so excited for the next little while. So as such, I plan to take full advantage of the last while in Europe I have.

And you can hold me to that.
