There's not much I want to say tonight. I'm more interested in having a bath and curling up with my laptop to catch up on my shows that I've missed the past couple episodes of. I mean, Revenge, TVD, & Originals are just burning with story lines this season...hot guys too but that's a text conversation not a blog one :)
Anyway, so a couple of quotes caught my attention today on Instagram (eco2369 if you want to follow...I mostly post pics of food & my dogs lol). The first is by R.M. Drake and states:
"She was never crazy. She just didn't let her heart settle in a cage. She was born wild, and sometimes we need people like her. For it's the horrors in her heart which cause the flames in ours. And she was always willing to burn for everything she has ever loved".
The second is a Mexican Proverb: "They tried to bury us. They didn't know we were seeds".
The first one strikes me because the last part of it stands incredibly true for me. I don't always know where I'm going or what I want out of life. A good portion of the time I've searched for things that I love doing because unless I truly love it passionately, I won't stick with it and I won't do it. However, when I LOVE something, I don't let it pass by me. I do whatever it is to get it. I mentioned before: I love hard and I love fast. This goes for people and it goes for things I do. The downfall of that? I love so strongly sometimes it smothers people. However, I'd rather be that way than be closed off and scared to love.
The second quote stands out to me because in my mind, I replaced the "Life". Life tried to bury me. It didn't know I was a seed. To that, I say....BRING IT and let's do this. I WILL come out on top. No exceptions. It might be a long road to healing but I WILL get there. And I will be a stronger person because of it. On top of that, I will never again give up so much of myself that I have trouble getting myself back. I'm important and I need to put myself first too.
So...on that note...my bath calls. Here's to a pretty uneventful but generally relaxing day at home with my munchkin & my pups. Cheers.
Things that made me happy today:
1) Staying home ALL day and playing board games and watching movies with my daughter
2) A bit warmer and not as windy weather (still cold but a bit bearable today)
3) Making homemade wonton soup that came out DELICIOUS
4) Hearing the song "Gonna Make You Sweat (Everybody Dance Now)" on Pandora Radio. It always makes me laugh because it reminds me of the movie "Man of the House" with Jonathan Taylor Thomas in it from when I was a kid. My cousin and I watched that movie so many times we wore out the VHS and that song was in it.
Things that irritated me today:
1) I didn't sleep well because of a stuffy nose and sore throat so I woke up irritated. Also had a dream about the ex so I woke up EXTRA irritated from that and more so because of him being a d*** and not answering my text yesterday. Just irritated...not upset. I rolled my eyes a lot today at that thought and then got on with whatever I was doing.
