I had an amazing Valentines day with my amazing boyfriend in a cabin in the snow. We went snowboarding, drank champagne, relaxed in the jacuzzi...it was great. As I'm still on the natural high of reflecting on how grateful I am for all that God is giving me, I get a phone call that makes me sick to my stomach. A unfortunate event that I thought was over a year ago came back to haunt me even harder.
Money, debt, credit, bills, mistake, regret, stupidity, disappointment, self-pity, apologies...
And of course when one thing goes wrong in my life, all else follows the trend down misery lane. I'd list all that's effed up but it would really sound too pathetic and self pity is so damn draining.
Hardship is all a part of life's journey. It maintains the very equilibrium of life because without it, there is no pleasure. I just gotta keep swimmin'.
"Sure you're screwed up, and sometimes you do dumb things and you forget that you are a human being, but the most wonderful thing about you is that, no matter where you are, you have potential to grow. You are just starting. There is only this much of you now, and there is an infinite amount to discover and to find!...Forgive yourself. Forgive yourself for not being perfect."
