This month is by far my favorite of the year. While not actually the summer, the mentality of the beginning of the great blossom is well underway. I am not referring to Peace Corps Mongolia either (though i love May in Mongolia too) but throughout all my 20's some of the best stuff has happened to me in May. Masters degrees, Peace Corps preparedness, getting in shape, getting amazing job offers, reaching the end of long and fruitful labors, the list goes on.
Today i looked at my email, and something very "Mayish" just happened. I refuse to believe it. Its just not gonna happen. Its a tease of something that i am so undeserving of, and therefore will not get. I am sure as the week goes on matters will clarify themselves, but the spark of something absolutely impossibly good suddenly was glowing a little bit. A possibility i would love. Something amazing, something i dont deserve in a million years. Nothing that will start a fire, but to even have the spark of hope of something as wonderful as this.... only the month of May could bring this about.
Wow, VAGUE!!!! (i know right?!) Ill let you know what it is when it doesnt pan out. (probably by next week) I am still a little too impressed to put down what it is right now. Now then lets see. Mom is here on Sunday. Running is going very well now that the wind is back to only 15mph, i am cooking great food (i still have way too much leftover food from care packages thanks to all my insane rationing) and all things good are still happening. Twenty seven days...and a life long goal comes to an end. A little over a month later, after spending a few days at a five star hotel in HK with my stepfather and a dear old friend (who speaks all the needed languages btw) ill be stateside, and even at 30 the whole world is laid out before me.... i love life!
