a constant reminder that there is so much to be thankful for, and puts all my worries into perspective
people that i love. Woke up to study, but more than willing to spend time talking to my friends. Some things are more important than studying. A lot of things are actually.
i’ve just watched the video below and no, i’m not crying or feeling all warm inside. Being away has made me appreciate every single person in my life so much more. But I kind of wish that I didn’t have to go on exchange to learn this. All those times I had warm soup to drink, had my headaches nursed, had a lap to lie on, had the fan turned on while I was sleeping. All those times I was living in the luxury of their love and care and I didn’t realise.
I think what I’m feeling now is a lot of guilt and a tinge of homesickness.
Used to wonder if I wasn’t making full use of my time and opportunity here - not travelling enough, not doing new things everyday. Not anymore though, because even if I didn’t get to see all the awesome sights that Europe has to offer, or if I didn’t party as much as I should, I know that I’ve learnt some very valuable things and that these realizations stay with me for life.
I am a very lucky girl.
this. a million times.
