un pensamiento para ti...
"He aprendido que todo el mundo quiere vivir en la cima de la montaña, sin saber que la verdadera felicidad está en la forma de subir la escarpada. He aprendido que cuando un recién nacido aprieta con su pequeño puño, por vez primera, el dedo de su padre, lo tiene atrapado para siempre. He aprendido que un hombre sólo tiene derecho a mirar a otro hacia abajo, cuando ha de ayudarle a levantarse..."
~ Gabriel Garcia Marquez

i was looking forward... until...
I was looking forward to handover my clients to my colleagues, until I said goodbye to each one of them. I wonder if they realized the impact of what it means to 'fly to another country to study'. Will they adjust? Will they improve? Will they become better than they are?
I was looking forward to my last day of work, until the time I actually bade a sad farewell to my beloved colleagues and took my final step out of the office.
I was looking forward to my trip to Melbourne, until the thought of being there all alone overwhelmed me.
But there's no turning back now, is there?

Pearl I envy you. I know it will be difficult and you could be lonely without your family and usual friends but think of this as a once in a lifetime adventure that not many could enjoy. It is far better to learn from travel than from reading books as an old chinese proverb very wisely said and think of all the new friends, experience as well as a lovely country to live in. You can come home when it is time to come home but meanwhile go have a blast. But do be careful in a foreign land, don't get cheated or make friends that will pull you down. You're a sensible lady and I have no doubt you will adjust and find your own way there. Who knows, maybe you won't want to leave!
Good luck and do blog often!
pp, have faith in the choice you've made!
never look back at the 'what ifs'. cos 'what ifs' weakens our commitment to push on and casts doubts on what we want to achieve.
i'm sure you're aware that you can always turn back. but is turning back what you really want to do?
if you don't venture out now at this time, will it be never? =)
reach inside and find the answer.
i believe in you. and i believe that you have the strength, and you will continue to build that strength you need to reach your dreams.
cheers pp!
