Cheers to you

Thank you, I really want to thank everyone. I really want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Yesterday was a little bit of a hard day with how I was feeling, it being my birthday far away from home. 

It was so nice to read all of what everyone had to say, the encouragement all of the wise words that you gave me.

I know that y'all are right one thing that I was forgetting was that I don't want to live my life with any regrets.

I know that in the end of this experience I am going to feel like a better person and have sure a great story to tell.

I know that even to do what I have done going so far away from home is such a huge step and I have already taken that one. I know that I am a very brave woman to do this.

I know that this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, I also know that I am one in only a few who can say that I have done this, I not only moved so far away from home but I also worked in another country where I did not speak the language at 1st.  

Not only was yesterday such a great learning day to go through and to experience for all of these reasons but I feel like it was a good way to open my eyes even more. I mean I can now say that I have celebrated a birthday in a different place with new people who I have only just been getting to know.

I want to thank you all for saying happy birthday and to remind me why I came to Spain and one of the things I came to Spain for was to take in everything and that would mean that I would have a birthday here just like any other year. It's inevitable and I am so glad to be about to have that be over and get to move on to other really fun new experiences.

I was forgetting how awesome and just how Special this experience is. I was not thinking about how short my time in Spain really is.

Spain is really a very beautiful place it really is, some things here are just so breath taking. I love so many things about Spain. The Architecture is so amazing and the views are really just so beautiful. Incredible!

I think that I was feeling a little down because I guess as that old saying goes It's true we don't know what we've got until its gone, but we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. I know that is not all the old saying, I found it this way with added words, I kind of liked it more it is what I would have wanted to say.

Thank you all so very very much. I needed to be brought back to why I came here and I needed to be reminded of how long I am really looking at here what I mean by that is that there is a really good chance that next year in the month of October I will be home in the same old same old. Maybe even wishing I was some where else and right now I am.

I am so very lucky, I have always felt that I have been such a lucky girl/ woman. I want to thank you for all that you do and have done for me. I really don't know what I would do if it was not for you guys back in North America. ( I saw North America because I have family in Canada and not just in California)

You are all so dear to me and I don't know how I could ever repay you for all that you have done. Please know that I might have another day or two here and there where I might need another push to help me with the newness of things.

Like some of you said this is a once in a lifetime golden opportunity, something that I couldn't have passed up. I will get so much out of this and I know that I am only going to be stronger, maybe even happier (you never know).

Thank you, Thank you!

I Love you all!
