Thanks

I just wanted to take a quick second to thank all of those out there that read and recommend my blog. Writing truly is the best outlet for me, whether I'm working through issues in my life or writing from what I've seen others go through. So I hope that what I write resonates with some of you, or helps you through your own tough or happy times as well.

For a long time I wrote only for myself. I have countless word documents saved onto my hard drive that I just kept to myself, editing and tweaking whenever I felt the need to write again. But having this blog kind of keeps me accountable, even if no one ever reads it. It forces me to write down my feelings or thoughts that are going through my head, and revisit them. And I love that! If any of you have never tried writing, you should. It doesn't have to be anything long or wordy or impressive, it just has to be your own writing style. It might be frustrating at first, but in the end it is SO rewarding.

Anyway, I guess I got a little bit off track. But thank you all so much for reading my blog, and texting me words or encouragement or pieces of advice about my posts. It really is much appreciated!

With love,

Decisions, decisions

Deciding whether or not to fight for someone is one of the hardest decisions you'll ever make. If you decide to fight that fight, you're completely putting yourself out there, and it can either end in celebration or devastation. That's the scariest part- that you could be missing out on such extreme happiness of winning that person back. It'll sort of tug at the back of your mind until you finally do something about it.

But then again, you could also be missing out on one of the worst pains of your life. And that's what keeps that little tug at bay.

So you have to decide...are you willing to take that risk? Are you willing to put it all on the line? Or would you rather save face, not embarrass yourself, take what dignity, pride and sanity you have and walk away. Give up.

Well, I've never been one to give up, have I?
