The year is coming to an end. So quickly. With each passing year, it seems time goes by more quickly. Perhaps because you have more to do, things to check off, things to occupy you.
I've spent three quarters of this year being in limbo, and yet, it's the final two months of this year that has defined the entire year for me. These past two months. Everything revolving around Sydney has defined my year, and it's been a good learning experience.
I've been made to question and challenge my thinking, my state of mind, my mental and emotional strength, my values, and everything in between. Things I haven't thought about, even. It's forced me to think, and to think in a different way.
I know the year ahead is going to be tough. This past month has shown me a glimpse of what is to come. Perhaps to prepare me? Perhaps. I think I'm prepared for it. I think I am. I know next year will test me in many different ways. It will define who I am. And I hope I'm strong enough to survive it in one piece.
For now though, let me remember this moment. I've been thinking, thinking of my character, my morals, my values, and how I've changed all these years. Just lately, I remember the person I used to be. I know I talk that I'm very different to who I used to be, and I know I am. Going back to my roots, I remember the council days. I remember what I wanted as well, in life, and I remember what I valued. Fast forward, and here I am. Ten years ago, would I want to see the person I am today? I'm not so sure, anymore.
But the past two months has made me think much more, and.. It's a good thing. It's a good thing to want to strive to reach a goal, and maybe, next year, I'll be able to get back to my roots, and back to my core values, and then aim higher. And find a balance of both worlds.
It's been a good year. It has.
