Everything happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, if they be events, illnesses or relationships, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere.
If someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, forgive them. For they have helped you learn about trust and the importance of being cautious to who you open your heart to.
If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things you would have never seen or felt without them.
this is from jackies LJ and i thaught i should post it cause it is true...
Anyways this weekend was US Open and to be honest i didnt have too much fun, I had no teammates and no friends that werent on my team..I mean i knew like one person but we didnt talk much because we dont really a lot anyways, we just know eachother from swimming and stuff like that so its nothing even like what me and priscilla have, now that would be awesome if people like her were there. My swimming felt kinda bad but i mean, what can ya do? it was a new situation for me and stuff...
The most annoying part was having to stay with my coach and parents, now i know how kierstin felt cause it really is a drag. My mom and dad tried to convince me i didnt do bad but i know i did, they really didnt know what they were doing and you could kinda tell but i mean they will learn and i just wish that the meet was closer so i could have my friends there cause its just really frustrating when you work all varsity season and then you think that you are free for like a week to see your friends and stuff but you have to fly a plane with your mom dad and coach all the way to texas where the time isnt even the same and then have the same room as them and then have to do whatever they want....we went to a huge mall and my parents didnt wanna go and shop and dawn didnt eaither so i had to walk around with them, yeah river walk was nice until they get you lost and you know the way nack to where you started UGH it got me so mad! I cant wait until jr's cause then i will have people to hang out with and actually lookk like a team and stuff...i just think people have too big of expectations of me and its really driving me crazy.
