These live journal sites are really interesting. For instance, I know many of you are reading this right now because you are bored, looking for something to draw your attention for a little while. Others, maybe you know me and you just wanna see what's up with me. Better still, there are those that read and truly want to comment but never do...for whatever reason. I'm starting to think about writing my thoughts on here. And, what I've kinda realized is this is my own personal column. What you get from reading this is up to you. I take full responsibilty of all the interpertations that the content of my writings may have on those that read it. With that said...
I've come to some very important conclusions:
1- Always stand firm in who you are
2- Never wait for love to happen to you
3- Make the best of all your relationships
How did I get to these conclusions?, you may ask...if you are still reading. And, the answer lies in experience, valuable experiences. Lately, I've been learning a heck of a lot about me. In discovering things about myself, I've become really confident in being the person I was made to be. Instead of getting trapped in the "I'm going to try to be..." I've decided that its better to just put all of me 100% on the table...if it gets taken cool...if not still cool. Now, love is the big question today. Lots of people around me are getting married, are in relationships, like someone...etc. I have to admit I've played that game. But, in the midst of it all I've realize that there are sometimes when pushing love to happen just becomes a waste of time. Hopefully, someday...I'll be chatting it up about the Red Sox, listening to some mad cool tunes, and laughing until my cheeks hurt...and some amazing guy will dig me. Then, sparks will fly...and you know the rest. But, waiting for it... yeh that is lame. Finally, the most important thing that I've understood recently has been that every relationship I am in deserves elbow-grease effort. I need to dig in and work hard on the relationships that matter to me. I need to be fully present, actively listening and participating in the lives of my family and friends. It's just the way its gotta be to make those relationships as strong and powerful as they need to be. I just can't sit back and watch them work themselves out...rather, I've learned that being ready to appreciate the other person involved is key to the betterment of both of our lives.
Phew. So, as you can see...I'm learning a lot. And, I have to tell you its kinda like growing pains. I know in the end I'll be stronger, taller, and ready to take on the world...but going through it can seem achy and turbulent. But, its worth it...living and learning is what makes me so happy to wake up and great the sunshine with a smile.
