Expectations vs. Reality.
I've really gotta learn to stop expecting so much.  Reality never aligns anyways.  I mean, I'm always going to be placed of less importance compared to others, it happens all the time, I mean, all people don't think like I do, no one holds the same values as I do.  We are all different, and for me, what's sad is that I cannot embrace that, accept it, and just let it go.

This europe trip has been without a doubt, lifechanging, inspiring, frustrating, and everything in between.  I've had lonely nights of reflection and catching up on hw, and nights of good craic, amazing company, and mediocre food (LOL).  There suddenly was a balance in my life.  For the record, That usually never happens.  It really has been the most eye-opening, beautiful experience I ever had the opportunity of participating in.

So when opportunity comes knocking on your door, I think it's best to answer it. Quickly.
That's the great thing about the future.  You can do all the planning you want (which is what I always did), but it's better and more fun to let it happen to you.  We are all destined to achieve something great in our lifetimes.
