Last night at Juho’s place I, for some reason, started going through my 43Things entries. I managed to trek all the way back to October 2008 and after I had finished, I had a very clear message in front of me.
“This year I am much happier. This year my life is so much better, in all ways. My life, as a matter of fact, is a wonderful one.”
I basically know all the time that my life is great, but sometimes you just don’t think about it and when you’re reminded of it like that, it’s very uplifting. :)
I also noticed that I’ve written here a lot less this year, which kind of saddens me, because so much has happened and I would like to have kept better record of it all. But maybe I’ll catch up one day, hehe. And it’s also good to know that I’m busy with what life has to offer me, and not just spending all my time online. ;)
Last year was a very tough year for me, to be honest, in many many ways. I had to go through a lot. I was very sad and nearly depressed for a long while. I experienced a lot of things and got hurt quite a lot, too, but that has all been for the best. All those events have made me into a much stronger, wiser person. I wouldn’t be here where I am at this moment if I had not gone through all that. I wouldn’t be this person, I’d be something else. And even though I had to suffer a lot of heartache, loneliness and uncertainty last year, I’m grateful for all those things, because they have helped me to see how lovely my situation in life right now in fact is.
Not that 2008 was only full of negative things, no. A lot of great things happened too, and I will never forget those things either.
I have evolved a lot since last year, and the year before that. I have kept evolving all along and my progress has been good. This year I am much happier, I’m much more peaceful, I’ve gotten rid of many (personally) big obstacles and I feel like I’m a “better” person now.
I grew a lot during 2008, but I feel like I’m growing

yeah! Good for you.

I look at it this way emilliakarina, the less you write about your experiences means one thing, you out experiencing life to it’s fullest. So don’t worry about keeping a record, when you go back, these experiences you will remember because you have actually lived through them, it’s very hard to forget what you have done. If not today, then maybe tomorrow or next week, whatever it happens it will.

There is an old wise saying that goes like this, “Maybe God wants us to meet the wrong people first, so that we finally meet the right person we will be grateful.” Does that sound like someone you know?

I can definitely see that in you.
I grew a lot during 2008, but I feel like I’m growing even more during 2009. This time the growth is just more refined. I’m beginning to find my way in life, I’m in a very loving relationship with the best darn guy in the whole world, I’m learning to balance things more and I’m truly enjoying life.
Yes, for sure. So happy for you. I knew it would happen for you one day, your so charming and caring for everyone.
And I’m nowhere near being ‘finished’. Not by a long shot. But this fact only excites me – I’m looking forward to growing even more, getting more experienced, wiser, more harmonious, just more. I’m starting to see my goals in life and I can’t wait to reach them one by one! Life is a wonderful adventure and I plan to take everything that I can out from it.
Here’s to hoping that the rest of 2009 will mark even more personal growth! I sure am feeling positive about it.
I am very sure that you have not even began the journey you are about to take as time marches by. The best advice I can give you now is “embrace every moment that you can grab your hands on, write, record it if you can, and live it through your own eyes and if someone comes along for the ride (and I am sure Juho will do that for you!)
