I use to think about six impossible things that are not impossible anymore before breakfast. In those moments when you are half asleep, still all tackled up in your bed sheets, and you just don't want to get up. Not yet.
1. Live in another country
2. Get a job
3. Get out of high school
4. Have my own double bed
5. Study what I like
6. Study it in English
Sometimes I start the day reminding myself what I achieved so far, some things are small, like having my big bed so I can sleep like a starfish, others were a bit more challenging to accomplish, and some of them are still a work in progress, but not impossible anymore.
If there's something I understood about me so far, is that I like, even love sometimes, impossible and different things. It's always been like that. Maybe because I'm curious, maybe because I find them interesting, or maybe just because I am determinate to make them become possible.
We spend pretty much of our life trying to find our place in the world and trying to understand who we really are, what we like, what we don't like. And growing up we change; if you stop for a moment, close your eyes and picture yourself five years ago, you'll be incredibly surprised by how different things were. Something you would have thought impossible became real, some people left, some new people came in your life. We are, I am, the result of everything that happened to me, the result of all the people I met in my life. Someone barely touched me, someone hurt me, someone made me understand important things, others shared with me the best moments.
Impossible things require time, effort, friends, family, even counterparts, intention and action. Until one day it's done. Until one day you realize where you are standing, where you stood, and where do you wanna stand tomorrow or in five years
If you look at it closer, even the word says "I'm possible".
