365 days project 2. Day 69. Signs

   How often does it happen that you watch a movie about Greece that makes you fall in love with that country and you decide to travel there the following year... and then you take a bus and you randomly sit down next to this word? I think it's a sign the Universe is sending me :) A sign that I should really go there :D Or at least I choose to believe so.

   Maybe you don't believe in signs. Maybe you think they're just funny coincidences. But you see, if you choose to believe in signs then life starts having a little more meaning... as long as you pay attention to the ones that will improve your life and make you happier. Being paranoid didn't help anybody. 

   Today Zeus made me happy. Now I know what country is next on my travelling list: Greece!

Day 160. A blessing in disguise

   Many times when misfortune strikes we start pitying ourselves and we expect to receive kind words that will help us move on. But if we have the power to close our eyes and breathe, stand back and see the whole situation from a different perspective, we find out that misfortunes are really blessings in disguise.

   Haven't I frequently told myself that I need a break and that I want to spend time with myself? Well today I realized my sickness gave me just that. I wanted to go to work by all means but sometimes we just gotta follow the signs and accept the road life leads us onto. It's not easy to do that while in denial or being blinded by sorrow, but after some time we get the chance to see the real meaning behind it all. I am now relaxing and gathering my forces to help kids understand that life isn't how they want it all the time... and maybe I should learn that lesson myself:)
