feel the tide turning

I’ve had a lot of time to think on this trip. Don’t get me wrong, we have been pretty busy but at the same time I’ve also taken the time to evaluate a lot of things in my life. It’s been easy to do this because being across the world I’m away from everything. I can completely disconnect from everything if that’s what I want to do.

I’ve never really cracked into my childhood on here or really to anyone because it’s something I’m scared to talk about so publicly. I’m also not about to so don’t get your hopes up that you’ll find out my deep dark secret on the internet. It’s just not going to happen. However, I’ve taken the time to think about a certain relationship in my life that has screwed me over big time. My mom raised my sister and I pretty damn good in my opinion. She raised some good women and I’m at a total loss where I was going with that. Oh, right…she always taught me to forgive people, to get on with things, to not let things get you down. Most of the time, I’ve been able to do it. There’s just this one person who I can’t let it go. I don’t know why but it just kills me. Yet, last night when I was lying in bed thinking things over I realized I should let it go and I decided that maybe when I get home I’ll finally have the conversation that I’ve been dreading since Christmas 2006….because that’s when the relationship was forever changed. It was the first dinner that we all had together as a family when I got home from university. Anyways, that’s a whole other issue. I think it’s time I maybe take a step in the right direction, I’ve spent a lot of time waiting for the other person to come forward and take the initiative but I really don’t think that will ever happen. So, maybe it’s time I do it. I mean I know that the relationship will never EVER go back to what it used to be but I might as well make things a bit more enjoyable when I do see this person. I think I’ll do it, finally speak with him. It’s going to be hard but I think I should just tackle it..


I realize that this post lacks but I haven't had much time. We were in Margaret River and all we did was enjoy everything around us. And consumed some delicious wines :)
I do plan on writing about that in our travel blog sometime soon. We have a couple good stories from our stay there. Keep your eye out for it. I'll post photos as well because photos always help a blog post.
