"During this trip, I really want to learn how to be with myself. Really be with myself, on the inside. To be okay thinking about myself. How many of us avoid doing just that? Thinking about the things that make us who we are, or how we can improve upon ourselves. I do. I'm scared to think about myself sometimes, its not always pretty. But I want to be able to claim myself, with all my flaws and mistakes."
These are the words of one of my wise friends. This is so true. I need a trip where I can do this. Because it is so much easier to live each day, keeping yourself amply busy and avoiding ever sitting in the silence listening to yourself and your thoughts and pondering where you are at in your life, emotionally and literally. It's so much easier to get up each day and go from task to task, then keep myself distracted between breaks with a computer and then finally get in bed and fall asleep and do the same thing the next day.
