The Unknown

The thing about the "unknown" is that it will ALWAYS be there. That is something you cannot control.

Your best defense is a good offense.

In sports, in marriage, in life.

Compromise, and compatibility, not perfection.

You must be best friends first before you can ever hope to make it in the long term sense. Soul mates come in all shapes, sizes, and they do not even have to be human: they could be your childhood pet, your favorite painting, a book that changed your life forever.

Life is in the details.

I Hope Your Heaven-Sent, and You're Hell Proof

This year has been quite rough on me in a lot of ways. It has not been easy getting used to the vast changes I have had to undergo. Some of them were easy, some of them were downright nerve wracking. However, I think that it will cause me to be a better version of myself starting 2011.

I ran into someone this year whom seems to only ever see me when I am at my most depressed. I wish things were different and I could have been more of a friend to her the last time we were together, but I had so much on my mind and I didn't feel like myself at all. I know she could tell plain as day that I had a thing or to that was really bothering me. But she was really nice to me and checked in on me once in a while, and for that I was and still am grateful. There have been strangers I'd just met this year who have shown me more kindness that people I have known my entire life never gave me. I guess sometimes you really can depend on the kindness of strangers.
