I haven't really accomplished anything, all I did was press "restart" on my life. All I have gained is an ironically uncertain future, which as always, takes its precious time to unfold. It seems that seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing, and sometimes it's hard to follow your heart, when you realise you might never make it.
