RETREAT!!!

I write to you today from a very cold Issaquah, WA. I have come home again! It's been a 7 long months since I've been back and I must say I dearly missed this place. I do consider LA my "home" now but I was getting home sick..is it still homesick even if it isn't your home anymore??

Anyways I've been looking forward to this weekend since I booked my flight and even before I booked it when my life started killing me. This was a getaway I desperately needed. I am in full retreat from my life in LA. I'm going to spend this time to regroup and refocus my life and I'm going to have to tackle "life" again on Tuesday. Until then this will be a time of rest for me. Maybe even heal. All the nicks and bruises I've acquired over the last few months will be looked at and reassessed. When I get back hopefully there'll be a new "me", a stronger "me". So until then..I'm retreating in Seattle and I'll be "home" soon!

Waiting for the Right Bounce

I must say that the last 2 months (Sept & Oct) was extremely rough on me. It just felt like stuff was piling on me left and right, top and bottom. Well to start off with I was sick the ENTIRE month of September. It was probably the longest cold/flu I've ever had. Not only that it seemed like everything I came across went completely wrong. School became super duper hectic, work gave me a hellish project and I was stuck on that forever, and other stuff. Even when things seemed to go in the way I wanted, the door slammed right in my face leaving bruised, beaten and hurt not to mention the loss of opportunity I've been working for. I must say that I was drained physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I was mad at myself, at the world, and a little at God. I questioned what was going on but I know that it's in these moments that I grow. I just have to realize it, even if it's the same stuff over and over again. Have I fully recovered from those previous 2 months?? To be honest, I'm not sure..I'm still looking for answers, still waiting for that right bounce to come my way. I guess that's life. Life is full of bounces..some go your way and some don't. I just haven't been getting ANY bounces the last 2 months. Maybe the next 2 months all the bounces will come my way. I just have to be ready to seize the opportunity, catch the right bounce and run with it.

Until Next Time,
