life is good. :)

LIFE is never what you expect it to be.
I think if it was, it would be too predictable and boring.
But since there is constant change, it makes things exciting. It also makes them extremely difficult sometimes, especially when you've got a good thing going on and it is forced to come to an end. Ugh, it can be rough times!
Although, something I have learned recently is there is always something better coming along.
I think that you must have HOPE, faith and love. These are key in living a truly happy life. 

I have been very blessed with another opportunity, aside from traveling to London. 
The Especially For Youth program would like to hire ME as a counselor this summer. 
I don't know the details of when and where yet, but I can already say that is is a blessing!
I am filled with so much excitement to do this! For those of you who really know me know how much of an EFY maniac I was. And still am! :) It will be a truly amazing experience. Hard, but so rewarding. I can already tell!

Things in my life definitely aren't where I thought they would be, or where I even wanted them to be a few months ago. But I realized something last night that is simply so great. I had to share:

I am happy. I am independently and truly happy. It has been such a long time since I've felt the way I do and it feels great. I never want it to end! I feel like things are falling in place and all the chaos that was going on in my brain and heart and life has come to a halt. I know it hasn't ended, because then life would get boring. Right? :) But I am grateful, to know the things I now know and to be truly happy through the good things of life.

I am also so so blessed with incredible family members and friends. I couldn't do anything without the people I love. They are always there for me, they keep me going and I love them dearly. 
 
PS sorry this is so long and kind of serious. I just had to share some thoughts! 

And seriously,

life is good. :)
