The last five days I’ve cycled more than 300kms, walked 19km of the Pieterpad.
And honestly?
I absolutely love it.
Some people on Facebook called me a legend, some probably think I’m completely crazy 😂
But a really good friend said something interesting to me.
He said:
“You are so dedicated.”
And then he said:
“I just don’t know what you’re dedicated to.”
And I answered:
“To life.”
Because I really do believe that.
We get one life.
And I think too many people spend their whole lives waiting to live it.
Waiting until there’s more money.
More time.
A better moment.
Retirement.
Less responsibilities.
And then suddenly years have gone by.
I’m not someone who dreams about massive houses or expensive stuff.
Honestly I’d rather spend five days cycling around with sore legs, weird tan lines. 😂
Tonight I’m sitting outside on a bench while all the cafés are packed with people eating and drinking.
And me?
I grabbed a pokébowl from the supermarket and a can of Aperol Spritz and I’m genuinely sitting here loving life.
Just watching people.
Watching the world go by.
Feeling completely content.
That feeling right there means more to me than material stuff ever will.
And maybe age changes you a bit too.
Because I spent a lot of years saying yes to everybody else.
Doing things I didn’t really want to do.
Pleasing people.
Trying to keep everyone happy.
Not because people forced me to…
but because somewhere along the way I stopped choosing myself.
The last few years taught me a lot.
Now I choose things that make me feel alive.
Things that make me wake up excited.
Things that fill my cup instead of draining it.
And the funny thing is…
the older I get, the less I care if people think I’m crazy.
Because one day when I’m dead, I don’t want people saying:
“She had a nice shoes.”
I want them saying:
“She really lived.”
And honestly?
I think more people deserve that feeling too.
Do what you love, love what you do!
