During the weakest moments and darkest hours, I can’t help but acknowledge that there’s something a little bit intimidating about uprooting your life and relocating it to a place that is 20 hours and heaps of cash away from home.
“Keep your head up. Keep your heart strong. Keep your mind set. Keep your hair long.”
I suppose making a 90-degree-turn, like for me starting law school from square one again after graduating in another country, is intimidating – no matter how perfect the setting itself is. It is almost like a card in poker that you just need to see. Or like holding a dice in your hand and then rolling it… a gamble. Luckily, I know I will hit the jackpot – like a remarkable 84-year-old woman told me during Christmas; one has to go there where the heart takes… if you follow your heart, it is just impossible to go wrong.
I feel like I’m standing at the doorstep of an amazing adventure. An adventure that will have its up and downs but at the very end, you will realise how it has been one of those things that have refined you, made you who you are.
In these thoughts I better continue packing – 46 hours left.
