When the glass is full life is good.
There are random points in our life where, after we've put in the work both mentally and physically, it all comes together. Things are coming along quite nicely, and I feel fulfilled. That's what I was searching for after all. Of course there are always things we wish we had, but there's something to be said for pursing the chase. Chasing after and working hard for fulfillment are what make the journey worth it (its also where you get the best stories). There's a ways for me to go but I do enjoy thinking, "I can't wait to see what my life is going to be like next year, 2 years, 5 years down the line." Aren't we all lucky in some aspects?
Fulfillment is at our fingertips. So why do we wait so long to feel it?

Let's Go on a Hike
I went on my first hike this weekend! I love the outdoors and nature (even if it doesn't love me back sometimes), and I love to wander around looking at all the cool nature stuff, so hiking is the perfect fit. I set my sights very high when it comes to physical things, which often gets me in trouble because I forget that I don't have the stamina for these things. I want to climb Diamond Head which is basically the most famous hike on Oahu near Waikiki. But my more levelheaded and realistic roommate suggested a beginner's trail in Hau'ula. The trail takes you up about 700ft and over looks a gulch and beach scenery on the windward side. I learned a lot on the hike. Mainly, that mountainous inclines are very tough, and knock all the wind out of me. But besides that, I learned to be very trusting of the Earth and its inhabitants. The views were so worth it and reminded me why I need to live this life right now. Can't wait to build up to Diamond Head and beyond!
