Resilience, "the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties, toughness”
Read this sentence made me realize that I recovered. I recovered from many things. And I think we all did. But when you are in the cycle of life, when you go through difficult times you have like blinders. So, you can’t realize the long way you did.

I dream to be an actress since as long as I can remember. So, when I finally arrived in drama school, I had so many stars in the eyes. But the dream became a nightmare very quickly. All the things that you can heard about this environment is true. After few months I was filled of disillusion. My dream was not that amazing anymore. I wanted to go to London but as you may know, a global pandemic showing of. So, I had to cancel my plan, go back to my parent’s house. After four years alone, it was complicated. And I think it was, one of the saddest periods of my life. I felt like if I was nobody, nothing. I cried a lot, told myself that all my choices until now was bad. That my life was a mess. Even that instead of following my dreams I should have listened to people who told me to do a marketing school…
But what for?
To be sad all my life?
Having a regular life with a routine in a job I hate? I didn’t want that too. I must admit it was a rough time, I was lost.
But I think that when you are a nice person, life can help you a bit sometimes to get back on track. I heard about la maison de l’europe. A French organization who depends of the Europe. They organize some internship everywhere in the Europe. I did my first one for a month, as community manager in Prague. My trip was very nice, but I haven’t really enjoyed my job. So again, I thought I could never do something I like except actress.
And then ...
I had this proposition for an internship in Lund.
What an amazing trick life did to me. Even if it’s only been a month, I have the time of my life.
My internship does not have a routine. I’m doing a bit of community management but not just this. I’m working on different workshop and project. I really enjoy it. I’m learning new things every day and it’s perfect. I met some amazing people that I want to keep in my life for ever. I’m travelling. What could I ask more?
So yes, I think I realised while I am writing this text that this is resilience. And I hope that reading this will help you to realised that you also recovered from your bad experience or at least that you’re on the go way.
