Thoughts of a busy mind

Sometimes in life you wish for something. You spend a huge portion of your life thinking about, praying for, wishing for that something. It takes you days, weeks, even years sometimes, wishing for one thing. Only one thing.

Then you realize what you have missed out on. You realize that all that time spent you didn't notice all the amazing things in your life, all those great things God gives you. You miss out on great experiences, and the worst thing is, when you take the most important things for granted because you're too blind to see what's important.

And sometimes, in special occasions, you get what you want. After you don't want it anymore.

So that's why you shouldn't wish for what you want. You should work for it. Invest your tears and sweat into it. Sacrifice what you have for it. But if you don't get it, don't give up, settle for a little less. And try again later.

That's why I have no expectations. No major dreams, I live each day. I settle for what I'm given and I never say no to any experiences. I have regrets, but they mean nothing.

Live each day as if it was your last. Give people around you a chance, be happy and accept what you have, and most importantly, say yes to everything. You never know, the best thing could be right infront of your nose!

Best friends FTW

Best friends are the best. They pick you up when you are down, they make you laugh when you least expect it, they have the ability to just hang with you all day doing absolutely nothing. You find them sleeping in your bed, eating from your fridge, BBQing in the back yard with your dad. They make friends with your parents and your parents like them more than your own self.

I had a friend come over all the way from across the globe, and for the first time in my life, I felt at home. She's like the bandage you put on a wound and it heals. The best thing is, how she knows me so well. Sometimes you forget yourself. That's when friends remind you of who you are.

They always say when you are in jail, friends bail you out, but best friends sit next to you in jail.. That's the kind my best friend is.

I wish that everyone in life finds someone like that. It's only then that life is truly complete.
