'Welcome back to the world', i said to myself.
Looking back, i feel whole again like i've found something i've been missing.
Not that i was really looking for anything in particular it just so happend that when one just let's all small trivial things go... the outcomes from that are rewards beyond any conprehension.
I knew it was a good break from school thanks for the Football, but there's so much more to it than that.
Chalkboard is finally ready to take it's first step into the real world. The comic is finished, and well everyone's just really glad we got it done. I never imagined we could all bunch together, set a job that we've never embarked on before with nothing more than a piece of paper, a pen and a bucket of dreams. Here we are today, with the final product sitting next to me thinking i'm the luckiest boy in the world.
But here's the deal that's been on the my lately... sure it's great to have my ice cream and to eat it too but that's so insignificant to what really happend.
I'm starting to really find the juice out of life, the cream inside the mundane biscuit, my diamond in a rough...
I've learned 3 lessons these last few weeks that i admit will stick with me for the rest of my life:
I learned who i'm: i reflect back on the events during the world cup. That was the first time i celebrating with the rest of my country, not because it's a sport but the values and everything we stand for. We are the free beings who believe that everyone has a fair side if you fight for it. What it really means ot be "Australian" and why i'm so proud to be a part of it.
I learned about love and the stuff that's in-between: I was passing though Monin's shop after securing a venue for the Chalkboard Photo shoot and i somehow ended up "helping" with the store because i felt like a idiot standing there while everyone worked. It was good to see a day in the life of a hussle and bussle city shop but what happend afterwards that really struck me. I met a street musician who was triyng to make his living. I leant him an ear and he played... eventually we started singing and it opened up my heart to all the people to was walking by. I closed by eyes and i belted out whatever i was feeling with my new friend playing...
[HERE'S WHY I WILL NEVER BLOG AGAIN]
What was written above was 10% of a "recovered post" thanks to the blogger server shitting itself when i try to post.
