The young adult life. My God-my brain is getting put to WORK!

I’ve learned so much !

I’m currently in my CFY, and it’s going well! I don’t want to share too much because I am deathly afraid of being accused of a HIPAA violation. If you know, you know! So, that’s all I’m going to say about that! 

Let’s see what else happened…

I recently watched the popular film “Forrest Gump” for the first time in March, and it made an impact on me. It made me reflect that life really is that simple if you let it. I think we put too much mental pressure on random little things- when in the end, what’s actually necessary is to let go and keep moving.

Stagnation is the enemy- overthinking is its catalyst.

When I went home to visit my family in Salt Lake County, I played the movie for my parents, and they loved it too. My mom found Forrest endearing and sweet. My dad found Forrest selfless and considerate of others. I found Forrest caring and sensitive.

It almost makes me wonder… our favorite qualities of Forrest- do we subconsciously pick our favorite qualities that we see in ourselves? Think about it, what are your top two favorite qualities about Forrest? Do they remind you of… you?

Forrest was a simple man and he was human just like us. He went through life and we, the audience, got to see the range of emotions he processed – grief, love, unwavering hope, disappointment, excitement and more. Perhaps because Forrest was so real without a facade- we see the life we wish we had the courage to live? A life with no filter and no concern of what others think of us? … I’m not sure, but for a movie about a guy with low IQ- it’s had me thinking about deep life questions more than anything else recently lol. Life is oddly counterintuitive. Sometimes, less is more.

Let’s see, what else is new? I got a part time job during the winter at my local ski resort so that I could make some new friends nearby and also get better at skiing. Skiing has been a passion project for the past few years, I think I’m addicted. Anyway, I had lots of fun! and made many new friends I hope to see again soon. We had parties, movie nights and went out to Park City Main Street a couple of times for drinks and karaoke.
