Destiny Defined.

Is destiny determined by chance or by choice?

This simple question offers no simple answer.

I guess the truth is, we will never know.

Maybe our destiny is determined by the choices we make,

or maybe fate is playing its hand in our lives.

In the end it comes down to what you choose to believe.

I happen to believe in fate.

Everything happens for a reason, whether we understand it or not.

Every experience leads us to our destiny, even if we fail to recognize it.

These experiences are not simply our choices, but chances we take.

A combination of the two.

With it comes uncertainty and fear.

Which is why I like to believe in something like fate.

What is life without such uncertainty?

Belief in fate allows me to appreciate the events that take place in my life,

and to know that everything that happens is meant to be (in life and love).

So, I ask again, is destiny determined by chance or by choice?

There is no wrong answer to this question.

What do you choose believe? 

 

Vulnerability.

Giving your heart to someone is scary.
That feeling of immense vulnerability,
putting something so sensitive in the hands of someone else.
Giving your heart to someone is amazing.
There is nothing better than being in love,
and having someone by your side that cares deeply for you.
Giving your heart to someone isn't always easy.
The uncertainty of the matter is frightening.
But uncertainty is what makes life interesting.
Who knows what the outcomes of things will be.
Its important to give your heart in the now,
and enjoy every moment that you have with that person.
There's no use focusing on the things that scare you and leave you wondering.
When you're in love what matters are:
the never-ending conversations,
the butterflies you get with just one look,
the electricity of a passionate kiss,
the warmth of comfort you feel from a simple hug.


Throw your fears away.

Fall in love.

Take a chance, and don't look back.

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.

P.S. Here is one of my favorite quotes :)

The moment I said it.

Sometimes,

I day dream.

Usually about past memories.

I tend to get lost in them.

I just can't help it.

Sometimes,

that can be embarrassing.

Especially when I get a goofy grin on my face in the middle of campus,

or a slight cringe of embarrassment when I remember something I wish I could forget.

I love memories.

Sometimes,

a place can hold too many memories.

Everywhere you look the past flashes before your eyes.

This can be good or bad, dependent on the situation at hand.

Sometimes,

the memories make me smile and feel lucky to hold it in my heart.

Sometimes,

the memories make me wish I could go back and relive every wonderful moment.

Sometimes,

the memories make me realize how happy I am with the present.

But most of all,

the memories make me miss the people who are part of my story, but haven't been seen in a while.

They make me wish things were different, and that things always work out the way we want them too.

That would make life too easy.

I like a little challenge,

so bring it on universe.

Memories are lovely, but don't get stuck watching the past because chances are you're missing out on the present.

Elle Woods, you've inspired me.

You've made me sit back and contemplate upon something when I thought I felt so certian.

Is love enough?

Really though, have you ever thought about it?

Questioned the power of love?

Until now, I never have.

I believed love, true love, could conquer anything.

With love distance means nothing, and no trial nor tribulation could tear it apart.

If there's a will there is a way; love is the way.

In the words of Nicholas Sparks,
"When people care about each other, they always find a way to make it work".

But look at Elle.

She fell head over heels in love,

and she thought he was too,

but it wasn't enough.

That really made me think, and think I did.

Sometimes, love isn't enough.

But you know what that means?

It wasn't true love,

and it wasn't meant to be.

If it was, he wouldn't have let her go.

Luckily, Elle realized this too.

It allowed her to find true love,

and a man that wouldn't let her go.

A man that knew love is all,
and that love was her.

Sometimes, love isn't enough,

But with the right person,

it's all you need.

Chivalry, is it dead?

Dear boys,

We want you to sweep us off our feet,

bring us flowers to see our stunning smiles,

and write us notes to make our cheeks blush with love.

We want you to care about us,

to open doors,

to think about us frequently,

to get jealous sometimes,

to always fight for us and never give up.

We want romantic gestures to show how much you care.

We want to hold your hand,

as you wrap your arm around us,

and kiss you infront of everyone and anyone to show you how much we care.

It's really not all that hard to figure out.

What has happened to this I ask?

Not that it still doesn't exisit.

I know for a fact that it truely does,

and well,

it's lovely.

But I'm seeing it less and less.

So, meet my old friend chivalry.

Go for it, ask a girl on a date.

Getting her number at a party isn't the same thing.

All I'm asking for is a little common decency,

and a lot more respect.

We deserve more.

Lately, I've only been running into guys that seem to not understand any of this.

Really, realize that we have feelings and don't want to just be a girl, we want to be that girl.

We want to be your girl.
