Whether you are 19 or 46; Many of us are at that age, where the decisions we make can change the course of where our lives are going.
Sometimes I miss the days where all you would worry about was to make sure your mom got your favorite cereal/snack at the grocery store, or making sure you get home from school in time to watch your favorite show, or even when our biggest worries were making sure you had enough "good markers" that weren't dried up...
Now I'm sure there are many of us, who still have a favorite show to make it home too, or favorite cereal we want... But those aren't our only worries any more. Some have lost a loved one, some are living paycheck to paycheck, some are dealing with crippling health issues, and others may be searching for a friend, a companion, or a better life.
There this word that people use called "growing up", but I call it "living". It's this amazing thing that throws you through loops and makes you smile bigger and cry harder than you ever have. You know, it's kind of a beautiful thing when something happens so out of left field, that almost breaks your heart; and all you can do is laugh. Those moment when you are so caught off guard and have no idea how to react, that you just laugh. After so much anguish, and heart ache, the light starts to appear.
There is a quote that says " The darkest hour is just before the dawn breaks." That quote has helped me through many things in my life, it has helped me to hang on a little longer, to have faith a little brighter. I will tell you, the light comes, it always comes. Sometimes it comes soon an sometimes it comes late. Always know that in order for us to grow and become who we were meant to become, we must know sorrow to know happiness. It is by this that we will be able to appreciate the good, because we will have known the bad.

Life is interesting to me, it seems that just when we think we figured things out, we get thrown a curveball. So, we improvise. We find happiness in unexpected places. We find ourselves understanding what matters the most. Life is funny that way. Sometimes it just has a way of making sure we wind up exactly where we belong... I like to call it The Lords plan.
