After yet another blogging hiatus, I’m finally back.
Sometimes I find myself wondering if anyone notices whether or not I post on
here, and I’m always so happy when people asking me questions about my absence.
When I first started my blog a little over a year ago, I posted every single
day. Since then, life has become a bit hectic and messy- but my time away from
this has shown me that it’s so
important to make time for the things you really enjoy doing. Blogging brings
me a sense of happiness and relaxation and always makes me feel like I’m on the
right track in terms of doing what I love. Four months into 2015, I’m as busy
as ever, but that’s no excuse to stop doing the things that make me happy. If
you find something you enjoy doing- make time for it no matter what.
After living in another country for four months, my first
semester back home has been full of adjustments and realizations. As one of my
final semesters comes to a close, I’m finding myself feeling overwhelmed by the
idea that maybe I’m not exactly where I had imagined myself being in life at
this point. At age twenty, I’ll be starting my last year of college in only a
few months. The realization that in one short year I will be ending yet another
chapter in life and soon totally out on my own in the real world is terrifying,
but I’ve always been one to believe that there’s a plan for each and every one
of us. Instead of being disappointed by the things we have not yet fulfilled,
we should be excited to know that there is so much for us left to explore and
encounter. It’s all about having faith in the right things and believing that
you are good enough to achieve
whatever it is that you put your mind to. The idea of disappointment is just a
fork in the road. We often fail to recognize that we are doing better than we
let ourselves believe. We have unknowingly picked our paths and are taking
steps towards becoming exactly who we want to be each and every day.
Here’s to reveling in the fact that there is a lifetime
worth of opportunity and excitement that awaits us. We are not behind, we’re
just slowly (but surely) making our way down our own paths.
