There's something about writing that makes me feel inspired, perhaps its the mere act of reflecting and writing. And so I decided.. yes, my adventure in Israel has come to end, but daily I have the chance to create new ones and with that I have hopes to find new inspiration.
Prior to leaving a friend asked me what my plans where for when I returned home, and my thoughts on this adventure, and with loss of better words to repeat, this is what I wrote:
"So the time has come to end my journey here and what a journey it has been. I can honestly say this has been the most amazing, life altering, and close to brilliant past 6months. Ive learned, lived and grown in my mind heart and spirit...everything Ive wanted.. or didn't want was worth it. Ive grown stronger from it all.
I really lived each day in order to soak up its beauty, and feed my soul and mind, and with that said I have truly found what makes me happy and from there stems the greater truths that Ive picked up along the way... but life itself is a learning experience so i will just keep on living and learning. but I can say my mind and soul have been opened and I just want to keep living with my heart and staying in tune with where that leads. Living in Israel itself has been such a gift, I have been submerged in a completely different world and culture and loved it, but the time has come to go home I am definitely ready to move on to something new.
What happens now? I have absolutely no idea, that part excites me and scares me at the same time. I have many things I would like to begin to accomplish and the world is pretty much mine to play with. I have dwindled my funds to close to nothing so a job is in order fast to get me on my feet.The only thing I have planned is to keep my spirits high and to hold on to the feelings and attitude in my heart as I approach San Diego"
With that said I decided to make this blog live on. Getting back to normal life has been both exciting and pretty frightening, last night I received a slap of reality and was knocked of the floor for a brief moment.
Here I am with a new adventure.. one more exciting than before because this is what I call the beginning of a new and real life with hopes to keep the strength and mind that my Israel experience had bestowed in my heart.
Lechaim ve Hatzlacha. To life and luck.
