I'm starting to freak out a little bit now that I've:
- enrolled in and paid for my fashion design course;
- sent a letter of resignation to my employer;
- told everyone all about it.
I really hope it all works out. *deep breath*
I never thought I'd take advice from Brad Pitt (I mean, c'mon), but I love this bit from The Curious Case of Benjamin Button:
What I think is, it’s never too late, or in my case, too early, to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit. Start any time you want. Change or stay the same. There aren’t any rules. We can make the best or worst of it. … I hope you make the best. I hope you see things that startle you. Feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people who have a different point of view. I hope you challenge yourself. I hope you stumble and pick yourself up. I hope you live the life you wanted to, and if you haven’t, I hope you start all over again.
When I watched that scene, my heart skipped a beat. Those were the exact words of encouragement I needed. (Kudos to The Sassy Kathy and By Teresa Wu for the quote!)
