Today it dawned on me that I've gotten used to my way of life in Latvia and I enjoy it. When I arrived I really fussed about needing a clothes dryer. Now, I don't even think about it and can't imagine where I would put it. And I've been doing a lot of car shopping, but honestly, I have learned how to get around in Riga without it and I really like walking and taking public transportation. I don't want to go back to my suburban mentality of driving everywhere. (I'll still get a car for the center and when I need to travel outside Riga - I'm not into long bus rides yet!) If only I could learn contentedness earlier and in some more significant areas of my life - why does it take me a year or a lifetime?
