Life Pulls

In so many different directions. It's amazing to think about all the different people that I know across the globe and what they are doing now. What situations they have found themselves in. How different their daily realities are than my own. I have found myself recently nostalgic, finding myself in memories with all those different people reminiscing about how "good" the old times were. It's interesting how I romanticize memories and people sometimes. When I truly think about it though, I realize that at the time of that particular memory, I didn't think what was going on was really the "Bees Knees" like it seems in a daydream. I remember at those times I was usually dreaming about using my life for something more, something different... and all that dreaming brought me here.

It's funny how we AIESECers tend to romanticize the AIESEC dream across the world, like it's really cherry pie and ice cream like it looks like in pictures and sounds like in the legendary stories. The truth is, it's one the hardest thing you could ever do. There are moments of grace and others of the fall. Then there are the moments where you forget what you are really doing and just let the juices flow. And then come the moments of reflection when you remember where you are and you realize what you are doing. Moments of disbelief, and awe. There is something truly bigger than one individual at work here.

Of course, put your work in for those relationships that matter most to you.
