feels good to be home. i like traveling but of course, we always like to come home. i hope!
these vacations were very much a 3 in 1 deal: prague alone, istanbul with my best friend, athens revisited. i've been feeling more brazilian than ever and that is, of course, hard to define. but i'll get to it eventually.
good luck with all your new year resolutions. make them reasonable so you can actually accomplish them and feel good about yourself. i had a theme for 2008 and i'm looking for a new one for 2009. 2008 was "o ano da saia." (translates to "the year of the skirt") i like making an effort towards new things so much that they go from conscious to unconscious and habits. i feel like that's an accomplishment. the "year of the skirt" made me become more feminine and accept the woman side of me more than before. earrings, long hair, attitudes were a conscious effort that have now become part of me.
2009 is about acceptance and openness, for me. we'll see how that works out...
love to you all who are reading this. i've been blogging for a year and still going. the 1st year was a great dress rehearsal and now, maybe it's time to think why do i blog, why do you read, what could i be blogging about, what direction to take and where to focus. what are the most important/interesting parts about reading someone's blog? is it like reading someone else's diary? is that a comforting feeling to know what other people think and how similar we are? i'll wait for your thoughts... thank you, as always.
