There's something to said for a night out with a great friend. One of these days I'm going to stop being amazed by the power of true friends. Em drove up yesterday after work and we hit our favorite place to eat, BWW before heading to a movie. We ate, laughed, talked, and played a couple games of cards. The healing powers of those simple actions are awesome! The Bounty Hunter was a hilarious movie! I'm glad we picked laugh over cry. :)I would be lying of I said that I love everything about my life, but I can say that I love life in general. I'm happy, I'm taking care of myself and I'm moving forward with my life. I'm not sitting back and watching the world pass me by. I've jumped in the drivers seat and am leading the way. I knew that year 26 was going to bring great things. I've known this since I was a little girl and 26 was my favorite number. Yes I know many of you might be thinking, isn't your lucky number 23? Yes my lucky/favorite number is 23, but it hasn't always been. From the time I could remember I've had a thing for the number 6, I don't know what it is, but I just like it. I can remember being young and thinking that at 26 I would have a career, man, house, and family. Well, I only have one of those things, but think about all that's changed in my life since the 25th of February. I think that I've grown SO much. So I don't have a man, house or am I anywhere near starting a family. I'm ok with that. My life has just started and I've finally decided that I don't need someone else to help make me happy. Yes I've known that this was true for a while, but I hadn't been able to really believe it and feel it deep down. Now I do. I love me. I love my life. I am single and truly happy and cannot even wrap my brain around being even happier. I will not settle and I will have what I deserve out of life.
The biggest thing that I've started to notice is that music once again makes me smile. Yes, it also makes me cry like no other. Even happy songs used to make me cry. I'd sit and think yea right, no one is that happy. Now I sit and think that I am that happy, and I'm that happy all alone. It's like being at the bottom and being happy, the only place you can go is up and when you're already up how great is that? There is no one to tear me down. I have no man in my life to break my heart. I've surrounded myself with people who love me and who will never let me down.
Have I mentioned that I'm happy and that I love life?

I am so glad to hear you say that you really believe that you don't "need" a man in your life to be happy!!! Maybe that means I really did do something good for you along the way! You are right, your life has only just begun and you deserve to have exactly what you want! Never settle for anything less! I'm very proud of the wonderful life you are building for yourself. Love Ya Bunches!!!! Yomomma~
You have so much to give. I completely agree with you- this.is.YOUR.year. You are making so many hard choices towards the right goal right now and it's an honor to be by your side to watch you grow. I wish I could have joined Em with you, but I am also glad you two were able to share some time together. Take care of yourself and always remember only you set how high you can fly. :) So let's see you soar.
