Good Day! :)
Today has indeed taken a whole different spin! I woke up rather early and went around in my condo thinking. Quickly enough I decided that it was time to go out in the beautiful sunny weather. Walked around the lake twice.
The first round i was struggling with thoughts and ideas about how to intertwine them into each other. It was like being lost but at the same time aware. When it was getting closer to the hill back home it didn't feel right. I hadn't solved my puzzle and therefore i thought let's take another round.

I sat down by a bench and looked out. The cold breezes made from the lake was cooling me down and i took out my notepad. It was not really anything in particular i wanted to do - i just wanted to be mindful for a while. Shortly afterwards it was time to start moving - i decided to walk around the whole lake instead of walking back the same way.
My thoughts were absorbing however they began to shimmer away, i noticed an elder woman trying to climb up a rather steep hill and automatically lend out a hand. She was surprised but thankful. The thoughts began to shimmer more, the second walk felt a lot more and things seemed different. I had walked this path several times but things began to seem differently. Something was changing. When i had finished walking my tummy wanted food but at the door to my building there was a woman, Monica, standing and i just stopped kind of. She began talking and it ended up with me taking another walk in the buildings. I went to different rooms and dorms and saw what they had. The people where very kind and helpful and i was interested in several activities. I went to a woman on the third floor in building 18 and found out what she did and shared some creative ideas. In fact at every stop i shared an idea which was relevant to the activities and motivated why they should invest in it.
Many of them offered me to apply for a place in the council but i have to focus on my studies, summer-job and abroad studies. I simply cannot commit to any offer until i have gained more information about these other things. However i gave my name and number to the people so when they know more about their next meeting i'll gladly join and see how they work. :)
Lastly i want to finish with something i concluded from the walk(s).
Being a fighter.... no.. a warrior of life, does not mean to fight battles and swing your sword all the time and about everything. It's about knowing when to draw the sword and when to yield; and there is nothing wrong with that. Choose your battles wisely.

Have a great day,
Wave
