i have spoken to a brother of mine who has gone through quite an ordeal over the past few weeks. shortly after our return from the motherland, i discovered that my brother had suffered an accident and has been in the hospital ever since. i knew deep down that though his life was threatened, he would not succumb to such an event. he is currently recovering and is in good spirits. the tone of his voice strengthens my resolve and i know that he will make it through this and be in good shape upon his return. "I'll be back soon..", he said. "Guaranteed. It's just a little while longer...", I replied - and I believe it.
whenever an obstacle has appeared before me in my current quest, a little bit of action on my part was enough to clear it. so, like before, I am really beginning to believe that this is the right path. everything happens for a reason. when an action you take is right/justified/correct and when your will to do so is strong, it seems that god, fate, and the universe conspire to aid you. so far, aid has come in many forms - letters of recommendation, affirmations of goodwill, confirmations of external support, calls made, emails sent. things are shaping up. as i've told my cousin and my friend in the mile high, "summer is when things start to move". as it stands, my departure should be in summer of 2010, god willing.
i need some gray jeans. more jeans in general. my rotation has become weary and i need some updates. so i guess that means ala moana this weekend. even if we don't buy anything, that's still my favorite mall.
