start all over again
I do not own it!
Ever since I saw the film "Swing Time" with Ginger and Fred, I was just mad about the dancing scene on that particular song. But this post is really about picking oneself off. No, up. and then dust off. Left stuff out.
As I wrote in my last post, I blew my last exam. This means, that I did not finish my Bachelor studies successfully. Now, I could say, that those las three years where for nothing. But that is not true.
This was an advanced study course for me. So for one: I just go back where I came for. I am not out on the street.
For two: I actually got a promotion during the course due to my efforts. And I would not have gotten that as fast as I did, otherwise.
For three: I learned a lot. Not just law-stuff and learn-stuff. I learned about people and work and most of all, I learned about myself and my friends or so-called-friends.
For four: I met a lot of nice people and added a couple of new friends. And I learned to value different points of view. Also I found out my so-called-friend as mentioned in "for three".
Finding that out, was my picking up. So I lost. I am not going to graduation-ceremony, I won't earn more money in future, I will not have so very much more interesting work.
But, adding to the above mentioned plusses: I get back the money for the tickets. I actually have more than enough money to live and enjoy on and though the work might not be as interesting, I won't have as much responsibility either.
Also: I keep my friends and experiences and a job. I don't have to start ALL over again, looking on it from a purely economical point. I have to start in my planning and arranging my life. But since I love to plan, that's no hardship. So I am actually already picked up and dusted off. I have started to "start over again" yesterday.
I like it, that one gets new chances in life. And who knows what it was good for? I am happy, by the way for all my friends, new and old ones, who did pass successfully They do deserve it!
