It has been so long since the last time I wrote anything. I was reading through what I wrote last year just to introduce myself. Here I was saying that I would like to slow down and smell the flowers, enjoy life more, and stop running.

I have failed. I am still running most of the time, especially while the schoolyear is ongoing. I am still not enjoying my life the way I should. And lets face it, I am in control of it all, but I think I am keeping busy, so I really don't have to think about everything else in my life that's going on. It is ridiculous.

We have to start making our own decisions when we get to be adults, but somehow we are still afraid to most of the time. We are afraid of making mistakes, we are afraid of failing, we are afraid what others might say.

But think about it, do we fail if something doesn't go the way we planned it. Do we fail if we admit to our self that maybe that wasn't the smartest thing to do? We see these things as failure, but really they aren't. We learn from the things we misjudge. It makes us better people, it makes us smarter, more considerate. It makes us who we are.

Sometimes we have to make major decisions, that might make us happy and well that might help us slow down and smell the daisies....

  1. I wouldn't call it failing. You make the best decision that you can at the time based on the circumstances... you'll get there... be patient with yourself.
