I wish sometimes that life would listen to me and try to get in line with what I had planned, but that really is the beauty of life. It is real and has so many more facets to it than one could ever dream up. It is beautiful because it has struggle and success with a little unexpected spice all rolled into one giant yummy burrito.
My friend just lost her Mom and the thought of this is difficult for my whole self to take it, but I know God is with her. It reminds me yet again how much I love mine and the rest of my family and all of you despite our flagrant imperfections. Love you all. I know it has been a roller coaster for many this past couple of weeks so hang in there, try not to puke and enjoy the ride. Life is only once. Make it yours and know you did your best.
"Think freely. Smile often. Tell those you love you do. Rediscover old friends. Make new ones. Hope. Grow. Give in. Pick daises. Share them. Keep a promise. Laugh heartily. Reach out. Let someone in. Hug a kid. Slow down. See a sunrise. Listen to the rain. Trust life. Have faith. Enjoy. Make some mistakes. Learn from them. Explore the unknown. Celebrate life...
Be Alive!"
