So I'm in one of our weekly meetings not really paying attention to the presentation but instead in my head brainstorming things I can do to get me closer to my dream. In the middle of my legal pad I write something to the effect of, Lending Myself to Helping Others in Africa. I kid you not, after the meeting my supervisor asked me stay behind. He said to me, "I think you should check out this website". He writes www.goanddolikewise.org on his legal pad and proceeds to tell me about the organization. As he is explaining, I turn to my dream steps page and let him read what I wrote. We shared an amazed stare. What a coincidence, I say. He tells me there are no coincidences. I really didn't think so either but I didn't want to come off too new age-ish. Anyway, to get to my point, it was at that moment I became excited. A door had been opened and I knew I was ready to finally go through it. From that day on, a year ago this month, the wheels were set in motion. I've placed myself in the videos, imagined myself in photos, did everything I could to make it as real for me as possible. It feels like I've experienced the journey already! So no, I'm not excited (right now). I'm actually pretty quiet inside. I feel like I've reached the peak of a mountain and there's nothing left to do but soak in the beauty.
