Timing is everything.

I can't stop thinking.
I can't stop thinking about this.
I can't stop thinking about that.
I can't stop thinking about the way things play out.
I believe that whatever will be, will be.
I believe that everything happens for a reason.
I can usually hold to these beliefs,
but for the first time in a while,
I want things to work out.
I want my dreams to become reality.
It's one never-ending story.
Every time I go to turn a new page, 
or start a new chapter,
I end up right back where I started.
I feel like certain things are truly meant to be.
There's something always drawing me back.
So here I sit again.
I was perfectly fine,
but now,
my head is reeling,
my heart starts racing,
and I get lost in memories, and distant dreams of what could be.
Dreams of what I want to be.
Timing really is everything isn't it?
Maybe it's the universe sending a sign,
but this really is something.
I can feel it.
Is it worth it to take a risk?
Is it worth it to take a chance,
to take it again?
While I sit and tell myself to stope thinking such absurdities,
I can't help but wonder as my mind wanders.
I guess you never know unless you try.
While I sit and wait for everything to play out,
I'll hold to my dreams,
but always remember in my heart that what is meant to be,
will simply be.

Truly. Madly. Deeply.

Things aren't always perfect.
Somehow, this makes life stunningly beautiful.
I feel perfection, absolute perfection, is an impossibility.
In a sense, it's completely subjective.
Perfection is in the eyes of the beholder.
I strive to be imperfect.
I like the little quirks I have, the awkward moments, and the ridiculous laughs.
My imperfections mold me into who I am.
Luckily,
I've managed to stay true to who I've always wanted to be.
I've watched so many people change right before my eyes,
and it makes me question whether or not I ever knew who they truly were...
I always question, but I never judge,
Another thing I fancy in myself and others.
I believe in withholding judgement.
I believe in offering an opinion and letting people make their own mistakes.
How else will they ever learn?
In addition, what was not right for you may be perfect for someone else.
Your mistake may be someones right move.
I believe in letting people decide what is right for themselves and being there for them, whether it falls together, or it falls apart.
I believe imperfection in all its beauty entails making mistakes.
I've definitely made more than my fair share,
all with a lesson to be learned.
Some lessons I've decided to ignore,
others I've understood right off the bat.
It's good to take the time to remember, that the person you are, is beautiful.
When you feel imperfect or make mistakes,
just remember,
you share that feeling with everyone in the world.
Embrace it.
Love your imperfections and learn from your mistakes.
You will only grow.
When you feel imperfect or make mistakes,
just remember,
you are beautiful,
and you are loved.
Never stop believing in yourself.
