Life is still happening. Whether you are sitting, standing, walking, procrastinating, laughing, crying. It's still moving.
I haven't always made the best choices in my life. I've had to learn from the mistakes I've made, and only hope that I sought out the lesson, and made it the best I could.
I'm a bit high strung at times, and maybe even a control freak. In my mind, I always strived to make everything perfect - perfect doesn't exist.
I grew up having this need for approval, constantly. I'm not sure, if it was because of my father's absence, or just not thinking I was good enough.
Fast forward~~~~ I'm good enough.
We all have this path that we're on, and it's full of forks in the road, and different trails. But life doesn't come with a handbook, so we are left to get through it on our instincts, and what is best for us.
My life now, has so much passion in it. Passion for understanding and growing as a person. A yearning to learn more about this fantastic world that I live in. Meeting new people, and having new experiences. I'm grateful that I have had the opportunity to have really good people in my life. Some have left, but I've realized that sometimes people weren't who you thought they were, and it's for the better.
My life right now is changing at a rapid pace from what it used to be. Different job, different direction, different views on the unknown. But I just keep telling myself "that we are never given more than what we can handle." So with that I trust.
I'm just like anybody else. I want to be happy, and do things that I love. I am okay on my own, but wouldn't mind someone to share it with. But I believe there is a plan, and I just need to have patience.

To everyone - Love yourself, believe in yourself, and know that it's enough.
