Journal 220

I'm feeling more centered. I seem to have finally let go of things that have been holding me back. I'm making decisions for myself. In the last few days every option that I have tried out in my head seems to sound like the right one. It's wonderful. I feel like it really wouldn't matter which way I went now, it would lead me right.

I'm not saying too much about what may or may not happen in the future, I've made that mistake before and it's all gone terribly wrong, or right of course or else I wouldn't be doing what I am now! But still, I'm not getting my own hopes up just now as I have learnt, and feel it is important for everyone to realise too, that circumstances change and not everything goes to plan as you expect it to. The littlest things could be the change you weren't expecting. You could be making plans for years ahead until something/someone/someplace/some-whatever comes into your life and changes fate. The truth is, that thing was always going to happen at that point. That thing was fate, and everything you were doing lead up to that moment, even if you didn't know it.

As I said, I'm not sure how the next few weeks are going to pan out or what answers I will get. But I'm not too scared about them happening however they would like to now. Every chapter from now is a good one, each one is part of my journey. I have lots to look forward to. Starting with my new learning venture tomorrow. This week is mapped out to be a busy one.

Tomorrow I learn all about the wonders of 'The Brazilian Wax'. I must admit I'm a little worried about how I will cope, as we will be practicing this on real life models. I'm hoping 'professional Amy' will take over and that instead of being faced with some strangers lady-garden, it will feel like a perfectly natural activity to undertake. After all, I will be adding it to my list of skills. I am also studying the more relaxing and enjoyable art of Indian head massage tomorrow afternoon. I'm going to have a lot of information to take in that is for sure. I am looking forward to this though It's another thing that just feels like the right thing to do. I am again ready to get in to the classroom and open my mind to learning again.

I never had an interest in further education once I left college. I think I'd had my fill for a little while, after twelve years compulsory education. It takes it's toll as I'm sure everybody knows! But now I think after working in retail for over six years now and having finally realised my potential in my industry (Beauty, not retail), I know it's time to broaden my horizons and get back in touch with whats happening in the world I work in and be in a position to constantly improve. I think it was Mumma B, once told me, that it is important to keep up to date with things, grow and expand. If you are always on trend then your work/business is always moving forward. It never gets boring for your target market and you are always bringing new things into your world.

So things are happening in my world at the moment. Its exciting and it's a new beginning.
What I really hope to put across though is, that things happen in life. As I mentioned before, circumstances can always change. The best way to deal with that is to flow along with these changes. Understand that life is moving along and not everything is set out as you may have originally planned it. What does not change is that we all end up in the place we are going at the time we are meant to. I don't doubt it.

Everything happens for a reason.
