The whole picture

 
Yesterday it was the 1st anniversary that our dearest family friend Stanko died. He left this world so peacefully, kindly and courageously as he lived.  You know the kind of person who is always happy and finds the right  words and jokes for everyone, the kind of person who makes you feel relax and accepted...... that was my uncle Stanko.
I believe that I honour his memory the best if  I  bring his  positive attitude towards world  and people   in my daily life. But yesterday I had the  wish to dedicate my full attention to his memory. So I went at the mass in the local  Catholic Church for the first time and the priest's speech really touched me.... it  was so connected with the purpose of my visit.  He was explaining that the majority of people in our life get to know just a little part of us. There are few important people in our life , close friends or family member, who know us  in a much deeper level .  But only God see the whole picture of who we  really are with all our weaknesses and potential.
Uncle Stanko was part of my life since my first  day, we were together for every important occasion and celebration. But  still so many things I don't know about this amazing man. And now he is gone. I can't talk to him, can't discover some new part of him. 
But I can take this  realization   and be more aware of this  in my other important  relationships  with my family and friends as  in my daily encounters with people. 
I think is very sad and dangerous when we start to  think that we really know someone very well or that we know ourself very well. As we usally say: "Like my own pocket".   Because of this attitude  we miss so much of the beauty of growth and change that is happening every second around us.
One of my most impotant values is growth. I came in London to became a better version of myself  through new experience  and challenge.  I hate when people want to put me  in one box and keep me there. I hate when people say: " You are like that you can't change,...".    
Just few days ago I was explaining to my new acquaintance about something I want to do. And he said that he doesn't belive I can  achieve it.    He really pushet my red button!  I know he is not the last one who said something like that to me. The important thing is that I don't take this on board with me.   Don't take on your shoulders limiting beliefs of other persons. There are so many amazing people out there who can show you  the opposite. Stick to them!    
I'm grateful to have my amazing family and friends who support me in this new adventure. They love also the crazy Don Quixote in me:))))
And I have my angel Stanko who protect me 24 h a day. I believe that true friendship last forever .......

LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH


your Don Quixote from London 

Here and now

For little more than a month is London my new home city. Actually  my first home city because I'm originaly from a little town  on Slovenian coast called Lucija.   A completely new way of living for me and yes I can say London is getting under my skin quite fast.
As you will probably find out very soon  I'm a rainbow of  emotions.   When I feel something very strong I follow my heart. ......   so  my heart brought me here.  And I was the last person who wanted such a big change .... at least one year ago.   And then this crazy,romantic  and idealistic Don Quixote in me awoke again.... and he   want  to fight a good figth, he want to add value to this world, he want  to live an amazing and adventurous life,  he want to bring ligth in people's  lives,..... 

So now I'm  here, I   left the known behind me  and I'm    facing the unknown.  Right now all the options are open. I'm  going to disover this city , follow my  passions and dreams..... live my  life  on another level..... and  meanwhile improve my  english  too.

So you are more than welcome to join me.
