    You had a lot of dreams that transform into visions -
    the fact that you saw the world affected all your decisions.
    But it wasn't your fault, wasn't in your intentions.

    I'm at a very unique position in my life right now.  I have just passed an amazing amount of obstacles, and I am currently right before the starting line of my next wave of hardship and readjustment.

    So I don't know it yet, but at this moment - this one, fleeting moment - my life is perfect.

    I sat at my kitchen table, laughing with my San Diego roommate about the funny things in life, when I realized just how perfect was at that moment.  I had just finished troubleshooting in all realms of my life -- research was beautiful, I had moved on from obstacles and anchors both here and home, I made amazing friends here (some even knowing me way more than almost all of my other friends back home) -- I had so much weight off my shoulders.  Then I realized, that at that moment, I had no weight on my shoulders.  I felt limitless.  For that instant, my life felt like it could go anywhere.

    In this moment, "life" is synonymous with "potential."

    And that, my friends, is perfect.
