A Valentine

I wasn't looking forward to Valentine's day whatsoever because it's just another day for people to be overly happy, overly sad, or overly mad because some guy didn't do enough. My Valentine's day was better than all three characteristics. I ended up spending the entire day in the emergency room with Blake. Him and another freak accident,  but so glad everything turned out to be okay. I came home and had about 10 minutes to get ready so we didn't miss our reservations. When I walked into my room, I walked  into rose and tulip bouquet and a beach tote from Blake. I was so surprised and it ment so much to me that he managed to put all of this together while on the way to the hospital. Dinner was amazing and afterwards was too. Movies in front of the fire are always amazing. It was a valentines day to remember. Hope everyone else had an amazing day filled with love and happiness as well!

Bends in the road

There comes a point while driving the road we call "life" when you come to a bend. There are many bends along the way to reach your final destination, but whose to say we can't keep going. Just because its an obstacle doesn't mean you can't overcome it. At the bend in my road I try to think positively. I have faith in God because I know he has a plan for me. With God all things are possible. In my life I have to take the good and take the bad and try to be as strong as possible. When I don't want to be strong.. I am. I fight myself to make sure I can be the strong determined person I truly am. This bend will only make me stronger and I cannot wait to overcome it. I have to have faith in God and I plan to keep busy with my friends and family. This too shall pass... In the mean time I plan to dance, sing, laugh, cry, relax, and enjoy my weekend in Hilton Head with one of my best friends Megan.

Are you going to be the bug or the windshield?

Breakdown after breakdown has caused my week to slowly but surely get worse. I have learned that these were the days our parents have warned us about. Not each day was going to be enjoyable and not each week was going to be easy. Only you can decide if you can make it through it. The person who has spent hours talking to me and giving me pep talks truly inspires me to be better and to keep on truckin. He told me today... you decide. "Are you going to be the bug or the windshield." The bug gets squashed and the windshield dominates. I don't know where I would be without those people to support me and to push me to do better. There will be better days and there will be worse days, but overall I am truly thankful to have a day.
