I graduated.
Officially graduated with my Bachelor’s of Psychology, and I feel full of wonder, excitement, and eagerness to experience what lies ahead. I am not only closing one chapter and entering a new one, but I am now gifted with the rest of this life to create and experience.
There is no rush.
This summer my intention is to pour my creative energy into sharing what I feel called to for me, you, and anyone who may come across this sanctuary.
Graduation comes with many questions from others…
“What’s your plan” or “What job are you going for” or even “Time for ‘real life’”
Everyone focuses on the next step, rather than embracing the present. For me, graduation was a big breathe of fresh air where my lungs, heart, and mind became full of pride and joy. I am so grateful for my college experience, but I will honestly say they were not the best years of my life. In my mind, there are no best years, for there cannot be. My life has been unfolding in a manner that keeps getting better and better as I evolve. The past four years were nothing short of amazing. San Diego is easily one of my favorite places. The beauty, the people, and the energy is unmatched, and a part of me will forever be part of there. Yet, I have accepted and surrendered to the knowing that my time there has come to a close for now. I will miss the San Diego sun, countless surfs under the moonlight, San Diego State’s beautiful campus, and endless nights of dancing, but this is simply a see you later.
Rather than allowing the noise, worry, or need to know from others fog my vision, I have chosen to stay true to myself and live through the unknown that is life. In doing so, I have never felt more happy and free. Currently in New York with my family, we are in the middle of moving to a new home on Long Island where my summer will be spent peacefully and calmly. Plans to pursue my masters remotely on O’ahu this coming Fall is all I know and all I need to know for now.
As I surrender to my own life’s unfolding, my soul is eager to read, write, share, guide and spread love to all who cross my path. I have all the time, we have all the time, and there is no rush.
At the end of my time on earth…
I will be rich because I know I lived to
love
experience
and make the best of this life.
With love,
Ra <3
