I have made it to my home country! My motherland!
It's been a busy few days, but I finally have the opportunity to write, so here I am.
I spent a few days at my grandma's, but now I'm currently having the time of my life sitting in my aunt's apartment alone while she's out at work. I have Mitski playing from my phone beside me and I am very happy.
The weather has been lovely too.
My flight went by smoothly and everything is great right now. I tested  negative for covid, obviously, since I managed to fly abroad.
My aunt is even taking me shopping when she comes back from work.                                                      

Life is good right now, and I'm riding on a high of happiness and relief.
In times like this, I wish that life could be this nice all of the time, but then I think about the fact that if it was, I wouldn't appreciate the peace and happiness as much as I appreciate it right now. There needs to be a balance between the good and the bad in life, I think. Obviously, nobody enjoys the bad, but without it, the good wouldn't be special. So, I am beyond grateful for how my life is at this very moment.
