The Big Things

This girl from Cusco-Peru has made one of her dreams come true. I’m here living this moment, living this present. I cannot thank enough life for this change and I hope is not my last time here. Believe in your dreams, for sure they’ll come true.

Right now, my everyday life is slightly unknown. I’ve just finished university and I’m trying to decide what to do next. I want to travel, I need to work and I don’t quite know what everyday life will look like for the next 1, 3, 5, 10 years. I know what it was at university. But I know know what it is now that’s over.

Right now we are here on a student travel trip. We have been all over Iceland and this is our last stop before heading home. There is 18 of us and we did not know any of each other before we got here. This is actually the craziest thing I have ever done and I don’t want to go. It’s weird to think I’ve only known these people for 1 ½ weeks b/c I can’t imagine my life without them. We are never going to see eachother again after this.

Most of my life is the same and quite boring. I get up, go to lectures, write essays, look and go dancing or out with friends. Even when something unusual happens it feels the same as the unusual things that have happened before. Now something new and different is happening, and I’m happy, but I’m afraid it won’t last.

Today I just went contemplating – just let it go – and be – had a wonderful fish soup – a good beer. Walk. breathe. Just simple life. With the most important of all – my family. Peace to all Sun in the heart and wind in the hair.

Friendship: at 75 – having 4 close friends to share a trip around Iceland 

Priceless 

Friends since 14 – shared many of life’s ups and downs – supporting each other, loving each other.

I’m putting off having KIDS. I’m sure it will be fine, but all of the things we encourage young women to chase start to feel self-centered after a while…

My everyday life is split. Originally in Charlotte, but I moved to main and started a new life there only to leave after 2 years for college. Now, after my first year, I find myself living from 3 places, with 3 friends, 3 houses but 1 me. I try to balance it but I can’t exist in multiple places. This exhibition helps because it helps me remember small things, things in the now. While I continue to live as a trifecta, I want to be better about being in the moment. Thank you for this

I saw the Northern Lights while flying an aircraft at 37,000 feet over northern Greenland facing the North Pole. Amazing panoramic sight lasting 3-4 hours. Columns green, blue red. Unique experience.

What does it mean to have PRINCIPLES? I think it means to apply them in your everyday life. Quietly. Without fanfare. To actually do it. To mould your life around the idea of making the world a better place, however you can.
