However its nice to be back in the land of the living. I started my training to become a volunteer for the Riding for Disabled here in Hong Kong (it finished tomorrow). In it I got to meet loads of new people, who I will eventually get to know better as time goes on. However just today I met this lovely lady, code name S, who I had a great time chatting with.
Occasionally in life I find that I meet people who I end up chatting with about very serious things without really ever knowing them. It happened once in New Zealand which helped me at that time in my life. It happened another time more recently (I guess I have needed a chat more than I thought recently) which helped me realise how much my friends matter to me.
Today I chatted with S about life here in Hong Kong. Really I have only been talking to my hubby about stuff, who is amazing and always supportive in my decision to find a life I want to live instead of just getting a job that pays (I really don't think I could have found a better partner - I am so very lucky!). But the conversation with lady S was different. Its nice to hear from a stranger that its okay - that decisions you made for whatever reason are okay and that maybe I can do this - figuring out what I want to be without losing my mind. The words she said were different from those above, whatever they were they made me feel better (even if she meant something completely different and actually I got it assbackwards) but it too late now - I have taken the message I needed to hear.
Just in case anyone who is reading this needs to hear it too - IT IS OKAY. Whatever you are doing in your life (as long as its legal) its okay if you want to change something or pursue something that is "not normal" or just enjoy life to the fullest - which I highly recommend.
So back to real life after that revelation. My picture for today is a horse I saw today:
Okay so I am sure this horse does have a name, but I don't know it.
