We all have something we want to run away from. To some, it is a person, a thing or a situation. To someone like me, it is my life. It is my life I badly want to escape from.
Questions such as, "Who do I live my life for?" and "Why am I living it this way?" often visit my thoughts. Am I really living my life for myself? Is this really how I want to live and continue living? Is this what I wanted for myself? No.
They say there's always a choice. But how come I was left with none?
When I arrived here in Spain, I've learned a lot of things in a hard way. It wasn't easy learning them all by myself with time and experience being my teacher and mentor. I've learned how to take care of myself and how to become more responsible.
But one of the most important things I've learned was how a single decision can change everything and affect anything else.
That night I decided to come home for myself, I knew that something will change and be affected. It wasn't easy to convince them to make me come home and I heard a lot before they finally let me go. Although they didn't really approve of my decision to come home for just a short vacation, they still bought me tickets and wished me a happy and safe trip.
If coming home is a mistake, then I will gladly take all the blame and responsibility for it.
