It’s A Beautiful Life

18 May

Happy May! I’m aware it’s been almost a month since my last update. However I’m here to repent for my blogging sins and hopefully you all will forgive me.

Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.

Yes? I owe you an entire month of blog posts. I’ll be honest, I over-exalted myself.  I pushed myself through projects that were way too much for me to handle on my own. On top of that, I built a beautiful brick house on top of my mountain of problems. The dirt that you sweep up under the rug always tends to make it’s way back on top doesn’t it? I’ve been sick and tired. I got to the point where I couldn’t function. Honestly I’m not quite sure how I’m functioning at the moment. I just started projects today and remembered I was paying for a site.

miniBlog theme

New theme! Are you excited? Are you happy? Aren’t you glad I didn’t make it? I’d be lying if I said I was focused on this site. However, I had been stalking miniBlog’s theme release for the past few months. I figured it’d be perfect if I ever cared about my work for others than my own. The key word was if, well that was then.

I’ve been re-evaluating a lot things and people in my life. Life is ever-changing. Nothing in life is ever permanent. People come and go. Events pass by. Even if you live life in a routine, you can never truly know what happens next. You can assume that everything shall go a certain way, but honestly things will never go exactly as you plan them. Five years ago, I was not planning on marrying anyone. I wanted to be a single person, who had at least five degrees, and was able to work twelve hour shifts. That was my life plan. I did not believe life was beautiful nor exciting. I was convinced that I was living to show others that they had a chance because I was out of chances. I had it all figured out. Why is it that whenever we have it all figured out, something comes and completely throws us into a loop?

Life is never what we quite expect it to be. For me, I think it’s a bit of a good thing. Life did not give up on me when I gave up on it. God certainly never gave up on me. I can honestly say that I’m now being shown the beautiful side of life. Sure, I fuss and complain about things that frustrate me. I get tired. I get worn out. However, I always have a choice now. Life comes with choices. Life comes with abilities. The gift of life cannot be bought, but it can be genuinely given. You can live until you die but never experience what life really is.

Life is beautiful so enjoy its beauty. Grab the opportunities that are given to you. Take the first step to begin something you have no idea if you can finish. Just live. I’m living for once and life is sweet.

    I’ve grown to really believe that life is a beautiful thing. I love the surprises and people that come and go. i embrace my mistakes and I learn form other peoples. I think too many people take life for granted and some even waste it or don’t see it’s potential. I am really glad your life is going so well, I’ve always silently wished the best for you and I know you’re receiving them. <3

    And I do not change names that much. Aja has changed more than me! I’m settling on ivee avenue. My dad says it easy to remember. I still don’t know what possessed me to make Ugh Estrella. I was a loser .. same time last year lol.

    Damn everything i wanted to said was said by the last commenter lol And yes people do come and go and life never stays the same. For that reason just live your life and take it as it comes. Everything happens for a reason. =)

    Oh please, you don’t owe us a month of blog posts :).

    I’m kind of speechless. This post was beautifully written and I don’t think there’s anything to reallu add. I basically agree with everything that was said and I’m soooo happy you’re enjoying life. You totally deserve the happiness hun <3. It’s about time. Change and death are the only inevitable things in life. Life is a beautiful thing, we should try our hardest to enjoy it.

    Yeah I know I’m one of those who needs to take more chances. I have no idea what I’m so afraid of. It annoys the shit out of me.
