"Be not afraid of growing slowly, be afraid only of standing still."
Back to the Chinese proverb lecture series aka lecture numero dos. Now this one really speaks volumes, only because I find it highly reflective of my current situation. As of this very moment I am chillin', relaxin', maxin' all cool in the comfort of a friend's fake apartment, which has suddenly become my temporary fake apartment/place to crash.
Be kind, please rewind!
- Two weeks ago I was two inches away from throwing myself into an oblivion of self-doubt and self-destruction, an inevitable abyss of doom!
- One week ago I said farewell to my internship, packed all my things and miraculously made the six hour drive from Milpitas to Fountain Valley, then to San Clemente and, ultimately, to San Diego.
- An interview and a weekend later I am, once again, a full-time employee at a very cool company.
Yes, I worry a lot. And yes, everything tends to work out for me at lightning speed. Maybe my sister was right when she reassured me with one of her broken English fortune cookie text messages, "u r a dragon! Future not just good, but great! :-)" Or perhaps it was because there wasn't one split second when I stood still.
