Current mood: content
Things that used to be your favorite start changing, things you used to dislike are now things you appreciate and things you use to love fade into something else. Nothing negative, nothing missing~ just a new phase, an 'entry' phase, if you will, to get you prepared for the new chapter of your life.
When change occurs, its hard to understand if its a good change, a needed change or something less welcomed. One of my dearest friends (also previous roomie) enlightened me years ago... Katielaine.... she told me that no matter how you embrace the change, its going to happpen, it's just the attitude you have or how you deal with it, and most importantly- what you do with the opportunity. She also would sing or play the Sing 'Time will do the talking", Patty Griffin to me constantly. I used to think it could only be a bandaid song when I was feelign lost and low, but it lately has new meaning. In my most recent change, the postponement of the wedding and changes between Patrick and I, it has been a comfort to play the song or place myself in the 'comfy spot' and wait it out... not to freak out, be scared of the unknown, but to let change happen, and when I begin to start to new chapter I will be able to look back and understand it. To tell you the truth, I am nervous and excited and scared shitless of what I am supposed to do and the fact that I don't have a clue of my next move.
A couple of random quotes I found and enjoy:
It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious.
-- Oscar Wilde, Lady Windermere's Fan, 1892, Act I
All human beings should try to learn before they die what they are running from, and to, and why.
-- James Thurber
We should be taught not to wait for inspiration to start a thing. Action always generates inspiration. Inspiration seldom generates action.
-- Frank Tibolt
