MY LITTLE SHTICK :)

Sometimes people come into our lives for a very significant reason. Whether to be our soul mate, best friend, other half, twin spark, they all are possibilities. However, determining the true reason they are here for us in this world is up to our personal choices and preferences...

What if you hold back because you're afraid? What if you honestly have no idea which road to take, and are terrified of making the wrong choice? What if your timing is off? What if you feel like you're blinded, dumbstruck, and at a loss as to where to leap?

How can one make decisions when they are being instructed by everyone surrounding them as to what to do. How can one trust their instincts when everyone else is telling them they are unrealistic? And WHY is it that life is so dang unfair? Why can't we just be two in two places at once? Or more?! That would be quite fitting, and very helpful :)

I think the truth is, that love and creativity are the only real things we are able to grasp onto as humans. Everything else in constant flux, and is never permanent. Love and creativity are the only real permanences we are able to validate and cherish. Therefore, we should suck the life out of each day, realizing that change, heartache, and death are inevitable. We should live our lives with love and creativity as our driving force, and not consume ourselves with the things we have NO control over. Unfortunately, even when we thrust all of our energy into careers, hobbies, competitions, etc., there is still always the chance that things will turn out horribly. This is part of life. This is why we are human. We all fail, right? We all have the choice as to whether or not to keep picking ourselves back up, as stronger, better, fiercer :) lol.

Honestly, what fun would it be if we didn't take risks, challenge boundaries, and love wholeheartedly, fully, and passionately?! I'd say we should have more fun and embrace the brevity of life with the people we love! If we don't, then life is pretty darn LAME. I think we should all live it up, do what we are passionate about, and have fun. With this formula, we'd be much better off (as long as we refrain from being stupid and hurting others!) :)



I was wondering... How much of life is fate, and how much are we actually in control? I'd sure love to have that knowledge, wouldn't you?

(thanks for listening to my shtick^-^)

CHANGE= A GOOD THING!

Okay, so lately I've been feeling oh so confused with just about everything in my dramatic life! I seem to be in a state of limbo until I make some very crucial decisions that will surely effect a lot of people, and will have a great impact on my overall happiness... Change is terrifying, yet completely necessary. It's inevitable! In fact, I think that some of the greatest changes I now face will prove key to unlocking the girl inside me who is desperately trying to claw her way out. I've been slightly confused for a bit of time now, and I'm dying to let loose, do the unexpected, and reach for the dreams I began to doubt were possible....

I've also started to believe in fate... I've been on a mission to keep my eyes open for signs as of late. Anything at all, any subtle guiding forces telling me that I'm doing the right thing... Although I'm certain that I've gotten many signs and I'm confident in the feelings that have led me to this place, I am still incredibly scared. Life is certainly terrifying, yet exhilerating... I've decided that I'd much rather live life on the edge, feeling free to explore and experience the greatest of feelings and adventures. However, the meticulous, worry-wort Virgo inside is screaming to me that I 'need to take caution', and be smart about how I go about these endeavors...

I guess my biggest fear in life is simply letting others down. I'm always paranoid that I might disappoint someone I love. I hate living like that! I wish I would just do exactly what I wanted more often and stop worrying so much! 

Although I love to have fun, smile, and laugh, sometimes I feel like these natural joys are a bit forced and are not in their purest, truest form. I want to feel completely blissful more often, and so that is my main goal for now!
