New Beginnings with Old Roots

So blogging has been on my mind lately as well as some other things so I thought I would kill two birds with one stone. This past weekend I had the wonderful opportunity to travel to St. George with some great friends. Life has not been an easy road over the last little whole for a variety of reasons. However, the past few days I have been reminded of some things that make me a unique individual. I had the opportunity to see Beauty and the Beast at the Tuacahn which has always been my favorite story. It was a huge part of my childhood and I was able to rekindle that fire. I also rediscovered my love of music through both creating and listening. I got to go to a concert which was such a fun experience and also had a little time to make my own music tonight which overcame my soul with so much peace. Finally, I had immense time to read leisurely without worrying about anything else. I love how books can take you away and provide healing. It has been wonderful to reconnect with these core elements of my being during a time of great anxiety and change and remember that I am unique and valuable and have something to offer the world. My journey is far from complete yet these past few days have been filled with joyous moments!

Breaking Free

For the longest time, I have let many different things hold me back from achieving some of the things that I wanted to accomplish.  In addition, it also prevented me from even dreaming that certain things could ever be possible.  However, as I have entered my last year of college, I have decided to make some major changes in my life and not let these things hold me back. While nothing super dramatic has happened, there is a different feeling about life in general.  The sky is brighter and things look much more optimistic.  So no matter what is holding you back, it is possible to start over even in your current circumstances and as scary as it may seem to leave something that is familiar, it will all be worth it in the end.  Here's to many more changes ahead and even brighter days!

Patience

Patience is something I have never been great at.  However, today's events are forcing me to be much more patient than I want to be.  My phone decided to die randomly and I have spent the last four hours driving places and asking questions that no one can answer.  I really just want this resolved since it is a very inconvenient time but I guess I get to learn patience along the way.  I just wish there was an easy solution to this all.  I feel like it shouldn't be this difficult but it is.  But I guess we all have those bad days from time to time.  I'm just glad it wasn't anything worse.
