It’s funny how a different country, different continent can change your outlook. Optimism reigns over pessimism. People truly are genuine. I’m struggling a little with this change – wondering why? What’s next. When it’s all going to change. Perhaps it is that I’ve let go of negative people, left them behind, back in Vancouver. The toxic ones that you don’t really like but can’t get away from either – they infiltrate. Negativity feeding off of negativity. Rejection and remorse. Lack of respect.
It’s starting to change me too. Though last night I recognized myself slipping into old patterns – last minute phone calls – I expected cancellation – how wrong I was. The opposite in fact. A cheerful voice, excitement, planning ahead. Thinking of me. Including me. Such a simple gesture – so easy. It makes me wonder why we all don’t do it more. Say yes, commit to plans. See them through because the experience is worth it. No matter how intimidating or unknown, trust this. It is worth it. Say Yes. Always Yes. Yes.
