Thoughts.

The reason for the recent absence of posts is none other than the fact that I have had so much happen to me in the past two weeks that I’m not quite sure where to even begin. I’ve sat here numerous times trying to write about a topic only to be interrupted by my brain, which takes me millions of places at once. So in an effort to accommodate the multitude of randomness running through my head I decided to write short blurbs about my recent realizations.

Enjoy.

It’s true that you don’t know what you have until it’s gone, but it’s also true that you don’t know what you’ve been missing until it arrives.
One of my favorite quotes ever. If I could sum up all of these little blurbs into one life lesson, (especially one i've learned recently) this quote would do it.

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.
Living with regrets gets you nowhere. I’ve learned that letting go of the past instead of looking back on it is empowering.

The key to change is to let go of fear.
Fearing change equals no progression. Trying new things instead of shying away from them allows you to experience positive changes in your life.

Good things happen when you least expect them to.
Just when you thought things couldn’t get worse… they get better. I’m a walking talking example of it. I like to think of it as God’s way of giving you encouragement.

A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.
There are different kinds of friends. The ones you can talk to and complain to until the cows come home. The ones who make you laugh in spite of your mood. The ones who force you to go out when you don’t feel like it (and you end up, to your surprise, having fun). The ones who are a walking, talking entertainment show. (haha) The ones who ask you questions that lead you to your own answers. The ones who know what you’re thinking and when to say things at the right time. The ones who share your same brain. The ones who comfort you by their mere presence. I’ve learned that I am fortunate to have, hands down, the best friends a girl could ask for. I could go on for days about this one.

Strangers are friends waiting to happen.
Long story made short: making friends and meeting new people is my new hobby.

Intelligence is refreshing
The most interesting conversations come from those with somebody who is intelligent. They leave you with different perspectives to think about. They keep you on your toes. At the risk of sounding ridiculous, I love talking with smart people.


My apologies for the cryptic post.I've heard "I read it in your blog" one too many times this week from one too many strangers in regards to my life details. I guess that's what happens when friends of friends get bored and start clicking around on people's facebook walls : ) .
My bad.
Til Next time!
