Don't Waste Your Life
As I trudged my way to campus this morning, my black Timberland boots sliding across the sidewalks that no one shovels, I realized how ridiculous it is to live waiting for the future. Right now I am single, a senior in college at an amazing university, a girl with many wonderful friends and barely into my twenties. I got a little mad at myself when I realized that there is part of me that is just waiting to fall in love. It's so stupid. But honestly I really just want to be in a relationship. It's been so long since I have been loved and let myself love. Granted I was young and incredibly naive, but truth be told I want someone I call and will listen, will hold my hand and be there to give me a hug when I need it. I want to be captivating to someone.
But it's such a waste of time to live waiting for the next part of my life to start. What about this part? I bet that when I am in a relationship I will wonder why I didn't treasure my singleness so much. Life can be kind of funny that way. I realized that instead of thinking about how I wished my life was I should just do what is within my power to live the life that I want.
But what does that look like?
Good question.
I have no clue.
But it's something to think about.
