a mere 8 days stand between me and my adventure. or maybe the adventure is (and has always been) well under way. it is, in fact, the life that came before that has made me capable of living bravely now. i am ecstatic and discombobulated and so entirely grateful. my bag is packed and waiting. i'm thankful that i have a few more days at work to keep me occupied and make a bit more money to throw around in new york and berlin. otherwise, i'd just be a total basket-case right now pacing in the kitchen and waiting for the morning when i get to board my plane. it's almost all i can think about at this point. :)
i'll leave an hour early for work today to stop off and buy a red Kelly Bundy dress to wear during my travels. i feel a red dress is absolutely necessary. especially a tight one. :) red lipstick is, of course, an undisputed travel requirement as well. and this morning, Becca and i texted excitedly back and forth to each other about how inexplicable and wonderful and TOTALLY UNBELIEVABLE this whole thing is. regardless of what happens, this will definitely be an eye-opening, life-changing event in both our lives and i feel so excited to be on the cusp of it. excited and lucky.
i can't believe this is my REAL life. but it IS!
the feeling
of being Capable is one of the best feelings in the world. it is my
hope that, regardless of a woman's life or dreams, she feel Capable. it
is the very root of genuine happiness, courage, and self-respect.
