When you become wise, you understand the world better.
Being abroad has forced me to reflect on myself. Who am I? and What do I really believe are questions that have been on my mind. Today I discovered that I am truly proud of who I am. I don't want to sound pompous because I'm really not. For most of my life I've actually had a low self-esteem... BUT today I've become a real woman. haha whatever that means.
Let me explain this better. I've realized that I have strong values because they have been tested. I've realized that I can keep promises... that I don't have to depend on anyone else to define me, that I can live without regretting anything and that I can forgive myself and others, that I genuinely enjoy helping those in need, that the friends I have are a few but true, that respect, modesty, selflessness, and an open mind are all part of my doctrine, that life is what you make of it, and that this is the longest run-on :)
