I am still on a quest to find out who I am and how I want to live. Save to say, it’s hard, messy and painful. But it’s definitely worth it. A year ago I had a dream of being a squirrel photographer, which I kept safely tucked away in a little box. And now it is reality. Not only that, another one of my dreams is coming true: my photographs will go up on a public wall. A year ago I didn’t even have this dream. Yup, you are looking at one happy squirrel! The whole experience has taught me that you can reach any goal when you set your mind to it. How? The same way you reach the top of a mountain. By putting one paw in front of the other until you get to the top (step by step by step by step etcetera). Don’t think about how far away it is and how you are never going to make it and ALL THAT. If you are anything like me, you’ll lose hope sometimes and think about going back to making noodles (or whatever you did before). But when you are all cried out, just pick yourself up and take another step!
