I'm Alive - A short run in my live in 180 days

I can't say 2007 hasn't been kind to me.
I have grown richer the last 180 days - the wealth that cannot be taken away from me.
In the last 180 days I have experienced the many many emotions a human can have.
To have this experience gives me the ability as a human to have empathy, and really mean it when I do say "I know how you feel", or being able to relate - and have the humanity touch when I reach out to others.

The experiences of one....
* Blissful 5 day pure relaxation at an Asian holiday resort luxury that felt like a 2 months of indulgence
* Followed by the most amazing time absorbing the cultural, historical and geographical sights of the country
* A scarred memory of being held up by a monkey for a big of chips is still there.
* The ability to make multiple tasting dishes with only spices and ingredients of less than 10.
* To have mourn for the loss of a cat and to have him found.
* To be absorbed in the turmoil of job hunting and hoping the decision made was right
* To feel the hurt and learn to let go
* To have realised the paths I choose are not the easy ones, but the enriching ones
* To realise mistakes and choices in life one makes can be painful and costly
* To know no regrets, but decisions made at point in time was based on best known information
* To have pride in humility
* To have learned the ability to listen to myself before I speak
* To learn of a dear friend's engagement and feel joy
* To learn to live one day at a time and live every moment to its fullest
* To cherish the people who are part of your life, because the moment can pass too quickly

Don't get caught up with pretences and materialism.
Live Life to the fullest, enrich everyday.
