Daily Reminder

"You will fall in love with your friends. Deep, passionate love. You will create a second family with them, a kind of tribe that makes you feel less vulnerable.  Sometimes our families can't love us all the time. Sometimes we're born into families who don't know how to love us properly. They do as much as they can but the rest is up to our friends. They can love you all the time, without judgement. At least the good ones can." - Unknown

A friend once told me about this quote she found on Tumblr.
Ever since, I fell in love with it and I constantly remind myself and admire each person that has never given up on me and continue to stay by my side.

Five Things 2018 Taught Me:

1.  Excuses aren't going to get you anywhere .   Stop talking yourself out of the opportunities just because you don't "feel" like you're ready yet.  It's time.  You're ready now. 2.   You can't help everyone .  No matter how kind you are, someone will always find a reason to dislike you - it isn't always about you.  Sometimes people don't know how to deal with or interact with kindness because they've never felt that before so they project.  This is a battle they have to fight themselves. 3.   Quality vs. quantity .   It's about those who push you beyond your limits.  The ones who notice that slight off -tone in your voice when something is wrong, because they just know.  The ones who bring you coffee or food not because you asked, but simply because they thought of you.  Those who send that "text me when you get home so I know you got home safely" text.  The ones who don't get upset with you for respo...

Growth.

When you get older, life seems to make a lot more sense more than ever.  The things that you want, the people you want to be around, the color that you love, or why he/ she wasn't meant for you —  basically almost everything that you worried about, smiled and laughed or even cried about before.  The things that made you uncomfortable happened to be the things that you enjoyed the most, and of course the things that you said you would and wouldn't do, turned out to be the opposite.   It's okay.  You're growing up.  You are growing beautifully despite and in spite of.   As you get older, the puzzle becomes clearer.  You find out what moves you, what encourages you, what you deeply crave from life — and you chase that.  You come to realize that you have that fire inside of you where you must never let convenience, comfort, or easiness of standing put it out.  You find acceptance within yourself while leaving tho...

Pursuing Passion.

I can sit here and write whatever I want you to think of me to be. I can effectuate your hopes that I am some inspirational human being, who strives to make the world a better place.  As great as that sounds, I am really not. When I sit and think, I start to feel like our culture is simply being taken over by the  idea of what our parents want us to be, or our peers, or what God wants us to be.  Why?  Because we look up to them.  We worship the ground they walk on and we don't want to disappoint.  But what we don't quite realize is that we've developed this need to claim who we are, rather than just to be. I'll admit, I am guilty for those inspirational quote posting on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.  But I don't do it to try and make you believe I am something I am not. I am a very self-less, in the moment, expressive person.  I believe in energy and making a difference in people's lives.  I don't do it to impress others, it was j...
