This is just a beginning

Time has passed soooo quickly... who would have thought. Two weeks ago I came back to Poland from Spain...

Oviedo, Asturias - my home for past five months

        Well, they say that the time passes quickly when you are really happy. It's true! I had an amazing time...the best one. I wish I had more...but I already know that I'll come back soon.

I've met a bunch of people that I will never forget. I've made strong friendships.  I've seen beautiful places. I've made myself at home. I've found myself.  I've left a piece of my heart there. 

And you may think that it's over. But it's not like that. You may think it's the end of the journey but in reality it's just a beginning. 

It's a beginning. You can start again...richer cause you gained new experiences. 

You won't be the same and it's all right.

I know that I am not the same.

What can I say? 

If you want something really bad...do whatever it takes to get it. 

If you are scared... don't be. 

Life is to damn short for this shit. Fear is a friend who's misunderstood. We only waste our precious time by worrying.

Get out and take actions. Stop complaining. Say what you feel. Be honest. Open your mind. Make yourself happy by doing what you love.

This may sound a bit cheesy, all of these advice...but I tried it. It works!

We are capable of doing great things. Remember this and live.

Have yourself a super duper day people!

What's Your story?

 - What's your story?

I remember the time when I heard this question...
It was summer 2010 and I was in the middle of my hichhiking trip to Barcelona with my friend. We got stuck in the south of Germany. The guy who stopped the car didn't asked about our destination, he asked about a story behind it.

But what was his story?

This man inspired me a lot.

He was a forty year-old lawyer from Ukraine but through his life he had lived in five different countries and he spent couple of years in each one of them. He knew at least four languages. When he was youger he hichhiked through United States. He adopted his little niece and gave her a life full of possiblities. He didn't want anything in return. He travelled a lot. All these years he was looking for his place...I can tell you that he finally found it.

Well, and I am still on my way, collecting experiences, gathering feelings, capturing moments in my head...exploring the world, enjoying it, seeking my place.
But hey! I am not that desperate to find it.
Because it's not about the destination, it's about the journey...

Create your future

   Can you imagine your life in 10 years from now? Or at least one year...can you? Do you know what would you like to do? To be? Do you have a goal that you're trying to achieve?

Everything begins from a thought, from a simple image in your mind and it's up to you to make it real.

   How about ME?  Well...let's go back in time for a second.

   Five years ago I was completely different person that I am now. Why? Cause I was locked...locked inside my head, didn't want to let anyone inside. I was shy. I was afraid of everything arround me. I was hiding. I had dreams too but I tied them well. Everything was falling apart. My life was falling apart. I didn't want it anymore. I couldn't stand it. I felt like I was drowning in a dirty mud of negativity and darkness. I thought I was lost for good...

   But then somebody got me out and said: "-Hey! Look at this world, it's beautiful and you can explore it!". So simple... but it helped me. This person may not know how huge impact she had on me that time... but thanks to her I started my life again... from scratch. Sounds a bit pathethic, right? It's just how I see it and always will.

Since then step by step I've learned how to express myself. It was hard at the beggining but with time I got better and better.

   I realesed my dreams, my hostages. I started doing things I always wanted to do, unforgettable, crazy ones (but those stories in another time) and I opened my mind.  

Then...again appeared situations that wanted me to fail, to let me down and to stifle this freshness and joy I had. I tried to stay strong but lost my goal somewhere on the way. I made some decisions just to please others and I forgot about myself. This state lasted for a while...but somewhere inside I felt that something was wrong, everyone around me felt this too. That was a proper time for big changes.

   I began again. More violently. I silenced all the bad thoughts and burried them deep so they can't get out.

Now. I believe that all I had experienced was for a reason. I am strong. I live. I am happy. I enjoy every little thing I have. I am thankful. Thankful to have such an amazing people around me. Thankful that I got those little talents that I can use to achieve my goals. Thankful that I am able to create my future.

   Right now I am in a process of making my dreams come true and changing my life. By now it's going very well ( I am studying two new languages which was my dream since I finished high school and I finally...yes finally decided to make it real ).

- And how about YOU?

This is just beggining...

Finally... I decided and here I am!
