Unlost in Spacetime Lost in Timespace

it is 11:00 am Singapore time on the Second of July, 2013. 

I am siting in a corner in an apartment in Singapore where I'm staying with a wonderful family till who knows when. 

I (dramatic pause) am lost.

Perhaps not so much geographically, but more so in drive, spirit and a psychological sense. I'm reassessing my goals and plans for the rest of my journey, but in truth, I don't know where to start, nor where it will end up. My brain is a jumbled mess of ideas surrounded by mostly useless fogginess. 

While I was in Bali I had a few goals that I thought that I would achieve: 
  • Creating a non for profit company
  • Meeting and connecting with influential people
  • Completing an internship at Green School and opening myself to an alternate educational experience
  • Expand my sphere of influence by expanding this page and blog
  • Make a film
  • Grow stronger in my faith
And perhaps unsurprisingly, I didn't quite get there. Other than completing an internship at Green School, I wasn't able to 100% complete any of my goals.

And so I sit in limbo, reassessing myself and wondering where I'm going next, if anywhere, what I'm doing next, if anything. 

I feel like I could definitely learn from what I didn't do in Bali. I know that if I had prioritised my own goals ahead of socialising and taking in Bali, I would have achieved them, But at the same time I also know that if I had done that, I would not have had so much exposure to the land and the people, and not been able to develop strong friendships. It's a fine art getting the right balance, and one that I'll have to work at to perfect. 

Anyway, I still don't know where I'm going and how I'm getting there - although I have gotten some interesting news about a little place in South Africa called Greyton. 

So tell me, what would you do in my situation? Where do you go and what do you do to reflect and plan?

Help needed.
