To be fair, that was yesterday. But yesterday was insane so this post is not seeing the light of day until now. So, yesterday - whatever, my best friend says time is but a social construct and I believe her - was the "one year" mark of what has been an incredible journey for me. Moving to Parihhh. Living in Parihh. Studying in Parihhh. Working in Parihhh. Dating in Parihh. (Gosh, that one. I will tell you more later). Making friends, making not-so-friend-not-quite-enemies and so much more. As it has been such an interesting experience for me and on the basis that I have yet (at least) another year to spend, I will venture off in telling my story on "How to Make It In Paris" (yes, that's the title. And no, I haven't made it yet but all in good time, my friend, all in good time.) It will be a collection of everything, catalogued, curated, talked about and analyzed. Like almost everything I have started doing since I've been doing what I want to do (moving to Paris was the epilogue); I cannot tell you what may come from this. I guess we will be finding out together. Also, as acknowledgement for all that has been true, honest, lovely and pure this year, from the people I've met to the things I have been able to do: thank you. I didn’t go looking for my blessings, For the bonds and the connections, For those moments Of suspended reality that feel like magic. They just happened. Because of all, Because of the truth, Because I could not have anticipated a single moment of this joyous year-long experience, From how it started to how it will inevitably end; From this day forward, I promise to trust the Universe With all my days, with all of my life. The best has yet to come. #oneyear #htmiip
