Lessons learned...
The Dance
~Garth Brooks
Looking back on the memory of,
The dance we shared, 'neath the stars above.
For a moment, all the world was right,
How could I have known, that you'd ever say good bye?
And now, I'm glad I didn't know,The way it all would end,
The way it all would go,Our lives are better left to chance,
I could have missed the pain,But I'd have had to miss the dance.
Holding you, I held everything,
For a moment, wasn't I the king,
But if I'd only known, how the king would fall,
Hey who's to say, You know I might have changed it all,
And now, I'm glad I didn't know,The way it all would end,
The way it all would go,Our lives are better left to chance,
I could have missed the pain,But I'd have had to miss the dance.
Yes my life, is better left to chance,I could have missed the pain,
But I'd have had to miss.......The Dance
Life is a dance. You have to take what life has dealt you and figure out what you need to learn from it. I have a horrible habit of not seeing the good in bad situations. But, its something I'm learning to do. You can live your life with regret. It will eat you inside, and make you completely miserable. You have to put your big girls pants on, and figure out what you can learn from it.
I'm very excited for what the future holds. I have had goals, just waiting to take the first step. Next week I start training for my new job, and it starts the first step in this new chapter. I HAVE to remember to take it one step at a time, one day at a time. Next week or month doesn't matter, only tomorrow. Its finally time for me to do what makes me happy, to do what I want to do with my life, to finally figure out who I am and what I want out of life. Finally time to take my life into my hands.

7 crazy facts about me
1.) When I was little I used to have a dream that a giant Big Bird was chasing me down the alley that was behind our house.
2.) I'm obsessed with sunsets. I love going new places and seeing what the sunsets look like there.
3.) Sometimes I drive my car like its a race car in the Indy 500. *yes I know you all know I drive crazy, but work with me here*
4.) I have nightmares about having to go back to HS. Then I finally realize I already have my diploma and wake up.
5.) I don't understand why people jump out of planes. Its a perfectly good airplane, no need to go jumping out of it. Was there a fire no one told me about?
6.) My dog actually farts, and audiable fart. No one believes me, but I've heard him do it 3 times now!
7.) I shave my cats in the summer, I can't stand their fur all over the place when its 100+ weather.
