so many times in my life, i find myself regretting everything: choices, relationships, actions, etc.
but you know, where does that get us? where does that take us in our life journeys? nowhere.
you sorta find yourself digging yourself into a hole that won't stop getting deeper until you get out and move on.
but its hard not to think, what if? or could that have happened? or even, if i had done that what would things be like today?... but the reality of it is that, today is the way it is for a reason and theres no reason for us to sit and dwell on everything thats gone on.
you learn from your mistakes, dust off your knees, and get back up on your feet.
of course you might make another mistake or embarrass yourself along the way, but seriously, we're human. Flaws and weirdness is what gives someone their true character. maybe its just me, but i'd rather have someone flawed and weird than someone "perfect" and fake.
i used to hate it when people would call me out or those who are brutally honest.. but now i really respect those people who have the decency and courage to say what they truly want to say. it takes real moxie haha.
so here's to honesty and getting back up on your feet!

ReplyDeleteI concur!
wow, so is this the new xanga? so i was on facebook and the first status update was urs and this link. so i decide to stop studying for some reason and click it.. i read ur first post and i gotta say... you have a nice way with words. so i read ur other posts and boy.. i really enjoyed them all. it seems like a lot is going on in your life.. struggles that are all too common for teenagers and struggles that are unique for only urself.. your still in high school, yet you approach these challenges in the wisest ways.. i hope you continue to stay true to urself.. i think you have a strong support group.. ur big sister, the church.. so dont feel like you have to face these challenges alone... that was my mistake.. pastor joo once told me that even the wisest needs counseling.. so good luck with everything. but again.. i really enjoyed ur post. now back to studying...
