2011.
In retrospect, this year wasn’t so bad. It was a long year and that gave me time to grow. It was a year of new experiences. This was my first year through college, and i have to say, i have learned so much.
One of the things that made my summer great was that i interned for a doctor, and the experience was altogether eye opening. Talking to numerous people, getting a glimpse of their lives as they pass through, along with helping them in anyway possible, made me realize that what i want to do with my life, the path i want to take, is the right one.
Being away from home constantly in place that only promises ego shattering stress, really wears a person out. But this is truly a year to learn and get through all of that. What really helped was immersing myself in a different environment where i can only see those who need much more help than i do (yay for clinical internship). In the spirit of empathy, i can see clearly that all the problems i fixate on are really not problems at all. Though, sometimes i seem to forget it when things get intense. i then fall and get lost in a dark and sullen world where being happy is really a thing of the past. With a simple call, my family to keeps me from falling deeper.
Lastly, it is only fair to say that this year is somewhat amazing and wonderful because of him. It has been a year, and all the memories we have made together never fail to make me smile.
