We Live And Learn, Crash and Burn~Random Thoughts

You can't spend your life trying to please everyone.  You will burn bridges and you will build new ones.  You will make mistakes and you will learn along the way.  But as long as you are happy, then you are doing something right. 

"I fell down 7 times, got back up 8."  Never give up.  No matter how bad life can seem there is always something positive to be found.  Quitting can sometimes seem easy, but running from our problems just complicates things.  Deal with it, learn from it, and move on.

Not everyone is going to like you, and it is pointless to try.  Live your life for you.  The people that love you will always love you, even when you make mistakes.  They never judge, they don't hate, they are always there.  The people that love you will never give up on you, even when you give up on yourself.  So why worry about the people that don't matter when you have people that do.

Just when you think there was no one else in the world to love, God surprises you with someone so much better.  Just because one person did you wrong, don't assume everyone will.  Everyone deserves a fair chance without assumptions, accusations, and fear.  Always believe in love no matter what happens.  The future is your new beginning...let the past go.

Friends drift apart.  It doesn't matter if you have been friends for 7 years or a month.  Eventually, people grow and it doesn't always mean they grow together.  Sometimes two people go in a different direction.  When it happens, let it go.  Everything happens for a reason. 

When it rains, it pours.  When one bad thing happens, we are so consumed in it that all we see are negative things surrounding us.  Take time to see the positive that can come out of a bad situation.  Your storm only lasts as long as you let it.  If you want to be happy...then be :)

I Let It Fall, My Heart, And As It Fell You Rose To Claim It

"The best can't find you until you put the worst behind you."  This quote has never seemed so true.  It took a long time, nearly a year, to get where I've needed to be.  To rid my life of negativity, pain, and heartbreak.  As the weeks go by, my life flies.  I love nights like this when I can take some time to pause, and appreciate everything God has blessed me with. 

Too much time has gone by for me to realize when all of this started, but I don't mind.  It is what it is...and it is happiness :)

Busier than ever, I find myself trapped in the sands of time.  This crazy, beautiful life has no escape, but when you are surrounded by such amazing people you don't even notice how hectic it all gets.  With a smile on my face I think about my friends; such loving sisters.  They give me a life of dreams and hope.  Family that guides me, even on the darkest days.  And even someone unexpected, a best friend, whom I never planned on sharing my life with.  Someone that supports me, encourages me, cares for me...is afraid to lose me.  It feels so nice to have that in my life again...surreal.

I am doing things my way this time, and this time it is going to be perfect.  I have learned to love my flaws, to be confident again.  I am who I am and I have finally found someone that doesn't want to change me.  I've never felt so lucky before.  I spent so much time trying to be with the wrong guy...and now that I'm with someone right...I giggle at how silly I was to think HE was the one.  I've grown so much in the past year it is incredible.  They never said it would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it...and I'd go through everything again if it meant I'd end up right here<3
