i'm quickly approaching my last days out here in the good ol' desert (my transition had a deadline; i'll be moving back after graduation from my nursing program in less than a month)- 4 months have really flown by!
it's been such an interesting journey and i feel that i have benefited greatly from it (most likely in more ways than i had anticipated and/or have yet to realize). i've had no choice but to get to know myself and learn to truly value my own company. i've been fortunate to have quite a few visitors, but have really been on my own for much of the time. i feel that this isolation has made me much stronger and i now know that i am truly capable of solitude. however, there have been numerous times that i wished for a partner, of any sort, to enjoy the trip with.
