Escape the limits you set!

"Men are not 
prisoners of
fate, but only
prisoners of
their own
minds"
 -Franklin D. Roosevelt

It's crazy how we set limits for ourselves and then a lot of the times don't even try to pass those limits. Someone might say something that makes us think that we have to put those limits on ourselves, but WE put the limits up! If we could just escape our own mind and thoughts we have of ourselves, I can only imagine the things each one of us could achieve! I'm still trying to discover how to fully overcome the limits I have set for myself, but I hope someday to pass each of them and be able to achieve the things I know I want so badly to achieve.

LoVe

"There are all kinds
of love in this world
but never the
same love
twice."

-F. Scott Fitzgerald

Sorry, this post is going to be a bit more emotional and short. I've been in love...a couple times, and I have loved plenty of people. In my life one lesson I have learned many many times is exactly what this quote says. Each love is different, not in a bad way, just different. When you lose that love, no matter how hard you try, your heart goes through morning similar to the way you loved the person. The best, and hardest thing to learn from each love, is to learn how to cope. I sure am trying to find a way tonight...learning how to let each love go is its own new challenge each time.

Every moment of it

I know it's been a few days since I last posted. I went home for the weekend to spend time with my little sister and to pick huckleberries with her and my grandpa! Life is amazing. 

"Be in LOVE with
Your Life. 
Every minute 
of it."
-Jack Kerouac

 I love this quote. Life doesn't always happen how you want it to. There is a Death Cab for Cutie song that says, "...every plan is a tiny prayer to father time." We can't plan for things that come into our lives, so it's best to just enjoy even the little moments. Laughing with friends, taking in the beauty that surrounds us. I was able to be with a good friend of mine tonight. We made jalopeno poppers and soup. We watched a movie, and we laughed like I haven't laughed in ages! My life isn't perfect, in fact I feel as though it is mostly pure chaos, but I am absolutely loving it! The lessons I'm learning, the strength I'm being pushed into showing, but most of all I am loving the little moments. Those moments that for the most part, we take no notice or appreciation of! Every plan is a tiny prayer to father time, so enjoy every single moment of the journey as you travel towards your plan!
