30 DAY CHALLENGE - DAY 4

A woman was talking to an insurance agent:

"So, I started this journey and I get sick a lot, lose way too many precious things along the way and most of the time I wish I could just return and get a refund or start the journey over. I knew that a lot of unexpected things might happen on this journey and I was more than prepared for each and every surprise. People told me before that this and that may happen but they never advised me on how to handle situations. I've always been eager to just get out there and experience new things. Regardless how scary they were, I knew I'd learn a lot along the way. How exciting new adventures and new experiences were to me. I just wanted to get out, get out of my comfort zone - because I knew I was prepared for them. That's what I thought of myself. Truth be told, I wasn't prepared at all. All I did was going with the flow. I did what I was told to do by my friends, by my parents and by my loved one. 

Never in that second I thought of what I wanted because they've been there and have done that. The roads were rough but I always managed to make it through. I wasn't on that journey alone, you see. I had loyal companions who always motivated me to move on, to continue that road when I was tired and to get my butt up when I've lingered on one spot for too long. I did my very best on that journey and I can say, I've seen a lot and met a lot of great people as well. I've seen the beauty of small cities and also got to learn to appreciate their totally hospitable inhabitants. They were all so nice and welcoming. It was a great visit and I felt I belonged somewhere and it felt pretty good. I knew that at some point in my life I would go back there and maybe start a future in that city. Just how it is when you're on a journey, you enter a new stage. In the beginning everything went great and I couldn't help myself but gush over all the new impressions. However, things started to change a bit. My friends and family have always warned me about it. I always laughed it off because I knew I would never find myself in such a situation. Since you cannot control everything, I suddenly found myself in exactly this situation.
