~:[CH12 - Day 120]:~ Vicariously
People often tell me that they live vicariously through me. Little do they know, that I live vicariously through them. Working in different places around the world sounds great, but when you're working most of the time and not exploring too much, I actually end up spending time scrolling to see what others are up to. It's funny how we experience things through others, when we each are living vicariously through each other. Personally, I find something more commonplace something great to enjoy through others. A family gathering, a beautiful date or even time to rest at home, as simple as these things are, I sometimes envy those who have those opportunities when I am busy working. As great as it may sound to be away, it's not always as great as it seems when you feel like you're missing out on some things that truly matter. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy exploring, but there are moments during those stretches when I do wish for things that are a little more simple, as they tend to be the most valuable things in life. As I looked through photos of a fun day for my family at California Adventure, I lived vicariously through the photos wishing to be there, as I worked through my piles of work at home. I hope that we all can enjoy all the simple moments we have in our lives and hope we realize just how important and amazing they are. It may not always seem as special as being somewhere exotic, but the reality is, these moments are the ones that are truly extra special.
