A change will come

So after much thinking, I realized just how necessary change is. I want so much more out of life right now. I want the passion and fulfillment that comes with enjoying work and really enjoying life. I want the challenges that mental stimulation brings ( which is why I want to go back to school). I want the personal fulfillment of helping others through volunteer work which I haven't gotten to do in a while. I want to re-ignite the travel bug that lies within that has been dormant way to long. I need the adventure and exoticness that comes with exploration of new places and meeting new people. Getting out there to see the world. This isn't a lot to ask for either. It is totally doable if I set my mind to it.

I don't want to be stuck in a rut, or a never ending circle that has no foreseeable end in which I will continue enduring if I don't make a change now. I don't want to settle for mediocrity and the bear minimum. I am going to strive for greatness and reach for the stars. The universe will be my playground, and I want to dance amongst the constellations and play in the milky way.

When it comes down to it, my plans are going to be pretty simple. I am going to find a job I like, that I am passionate about, I am going to try and get into school for the spring, and make time to write more. I lost the passion for this somehow the last year or two, but with the endless possibilities, it is slowly being ignited again. This is something I am definitely looking forward too. I am going to travel and see the world more. Solidify and strengthen some friendships and make some new ones.

I am off to try to achieve a better place in life. The same ole' will not be apart of those plans. Some things need to be moved on from, and some looked into a bit more.... but regardless of which it is, it's going to be a beautiful ride! One that I am defiantly looking forward too!

Better Left Unknown...

So there are sometimes when there are things that you find out that you really didn't wish you know. Did I really need to know that? If you had just told me, would I still feel the same way? I'd like to think I am receptive enough for anyone to tell me whatever it is that they may be feeling, but sometimes I guess that doesn't ring true. On the surface it's all good, but tell me how you really feel... Is it that difficult? If everyone did this, life would be so much better, and I for one welcome the honesty and straightfowardness. Isn't that what friendship is for? Don't be afraid. Just tell it like it is and life will be so much better ( and no this is not directed towards anyone per se... just a general thought)! I'd rather know than not know.... and my feelings will not be hurt.
