As I begin planning my wedding[Oct. 31st 2014!], I start thinking back on various points in my life, all the people that have been in it, shaped me into who I am today.
Then I think of all of the events that have happened in my life, from the friends I've made, the friends I've lost, becoming homeschooled, redoing my whole high school career, kids, college, working, etc. and it makes me realize just how much has changed from the time I was little.
I almost never ever talk to the people I once used to be in elementary school with, the people I had grown up with. I still keep in touch with one, and I think back to how close we used to be in school. I had always admired how strong she was after her mother had passed away and she took on taking care of her siblings, and the house, and it was just so amazing. And now she's a college graduate and an engineer of some sorts and is just amazing. She's getting married in the spring to an amazing guy which is super awesome. And she recently posted pictures of her younger siblings graduating from college and holy crap do I feel old. I remember when they were little! But, she's always been an amazing person and an amazing friend. Even though we've dropped out of touch over the years, though slowly getting back in touch, and don't get together at all, she's always been one of my friends. And I've always admired her over the years for everything she's accomplished in her life.
It's people like that, that keep me going when I'm having a down moment. Which, I tend to have a lot of. But hopefully once I figure out what I'm doing with my life, and get everything else figured out, things will get tons better. I may have been set back by many obstacles in my life, and this crazy insane person is not going to let them get in her way and stop her. I've been through so much in my life, that anything else that happens will probably just be a shrug of the shoulders. I know I can do it.
I will never let people drag me down again. It's never any good, and it really makes your days sucky.
And now, after the random jumble of words, back to Pinterest for more wedding ideas! Life is great!
