Journey

Have I been wasting my time here? Once I realized that I was in uncharted territory and that I was going to have to learn my way about, shouldn’t I have taken on the attitude of someone on a spiritual journey, forging ahead to learn things about myself as well as my adopted country?

Instead I have fretted away hours, railed against this new world I’ve been in for a year, hated it and wondered why the hell it wasn’t better, why it couldn’t be better. And I’ve been powerless to make changes as I would have in my own world. I’ve fought it instead of exploring it.

But maybe that is my journey. Or maybe my journey is just starting.
