Yes we are :)

Skipping Stones

It's so funny how things can change but nothing really changes. I was reading back through the last couple months and everything in my life that has changed, but stayed completely the same. Friends have come and gone, while others have remained and grown closer. Old "stones" have come back and tried to put themselves back on the path much to my own dismay. While new "stones" and unnoticed "stones" have been popping up all over the pathway.

None of these current "stones" captures my full attention and passion though. Something just seems to be lacking or missing in each one. Picking up the "stones" and admiring them feels more like a waste of time, even though it is a self-esteem booster. But the desire to find that perfect "stone" that will skip across the water beautifully keeps me interested.

While looking back at all the "stones" that have made up the pathway, I find discouragement. If I have already looked through all those "stones" whose to say I will ever find that perfect "stone"? It seems almost like an unattainable dream, one that may never come true. Because of my piqued interest and dream of perfection, I can't seem to stop or give up on my hunt for the perfect "stone".

I know that one day if I have looked hard enough and remained diligent I will find my perfect water-skipping "stone". The hard part is remembering it will be worth it to see the "stone" gently glide over the water, to be able to see the perfection of what I have been searching for so long to find.

STAY STRONG

So I am currently watching Demi Lovato:Stay Strong on Mtv and it's kind of inspiring. She has gone through many of the struggles and trials many women go through today(not just young girls, because the loss of self respect and confidence is something that plagues women across the world). I admire her completely from coming out and talking about all of the problems she went through. Not many celebrities are willing to admit their weaknesses to help out others. It's quite funny, but she doesn't realize how many people she has actually helped. I admire her completely for it. I believe that all women should have self-respect and the confidence to rule the world. We are all amazing enough to do what ever it is we choose our dreams to be. We as women are beautiful, and capable. No one should ever take that away and make you feel less than that, not even yourself. If you do feel that way about yourself, look to others for help, get the help you need to realize your true potential. Because I promise you it's far beyond what you even imagine it could be.
