Truths


There's beauty in being broken.

When you don't bear fruit, life becomes about you.

Stop living vicariously through other people's stories and start living yours.

Broken Homes

So life has been so crazy that I almost forgot to blog. Actually, I've been avoiding the ole blog because I really didn't want to talk about what was going on, which is alot of CRAP! Anyway... Alot has been going on. God has been testing me. But... it's all good. I got a job. A temporary job for the holidays, so I'll be kept busy. I need it. A good managerial job to keep me responsible and busy. Seriously though, the past week has been rough. There have been good times, mind you, but emotionally, things have been tough with my family. Through my Recovery group, I've been learning to deal with conflict differently than how I learned in my family, and going back to a family that still practices bad habits is not good for someone recovering from those things. Talk about high stress. So I've been in a lot of deep sorrow, anger, depression, you name it. I just thank GOD that I have the geographical distance from my family, and I have an amazing group of friends here...

7 Reasons to Love Being Single

You attract people when you're living your best life.  Men are attracted to women who are driven, who are up to big things, who are committed to their vision. Not someone who is waiting for a man to save them.  Men want a woman they can convince to have a relationship with them, not when they have to "save" them.  Spend time on learning a skill set. Do what you love. Reconnect with your vision personally and professionally.  Spontaneous socializing. Experiment with the types you like hanging out with.  More time to date and love yourself. More 'me' time. Appreciate yourself for who you are, not for who you're with.  Get out of your comfort zone. Explore.  Time to focus on your health.  Take risks to tell people that you find them attractive. Make rejection your friend. Approach people you're attracted to and say 'hi.'  Surround yourself with family and friends you love.

Jumping

Well today I'm going skydiving, and this marks a huge goal off my bucket list. I decided to make the jump a little more symbolic for me, like taking a huge leap into a new life, leaving the past behind me. Jumping into freedom, I guess. I took some time this morning to look back on old posts, and I've seen alot of change in me over the past 2 years. Can you believe it's been 2 years since I moved to Austin? My, how time flies. Sometimes I wonder if I should go back home to my family who I miss oh-so-much. But there's some things here that I know I would miss. I've been blessed with a great job that I enjoy going to, and I have friends here that I don't want to leave behind. Not to mention my church, but I also have a church in Houston that I love as well. I'm just wondering if I would "fit-in" in Houston. Every time I go there, it seems so different now. And I've changed so much that I wonder if I would belong there at all. Sometimes I think th...
