the echoes from the past
i have a 6th sense sometimes. the ability to think of something or someone and shortly afterwards that something or someone appear out of the blue. i was thinking yesterday about a girl i was friends with in 2nd grade who had moved away 1/2 way through the 3rd grade. it's been nearly 18 years.walking into a local establishment last night meant avoiding the bachelorette party that was happening. a quick glance at the one donning the veil had stopped me in my tracks. my eyes grew wide and i blurted out her name. analeigh yelled mine back at me and old friends were instantly reunited.it's funny how things happen.
just what did you do, if you're a dream then come true
do dreams come true? does everyone end up with some sort of happy ending? ..obviously not. i'm hoping that every day, my actions and choices will eventually lead me to both of these. i am saddened for those who compromise their own happiness for the happiness of others. i really believe that your happiness needs to come before anyone else's and if you sacrifice that, you are actually doing disservice to everyone who happens into your world.so although, i'm not at the best place in my life right now, i continue on. i continue to find one thing each day, or every other day, to better myself. to grow myself. to inch toward my happiness. to take baby steps toward my dreams and hopeful happy ending. next baby step? ...finding a name.
