Today is Valentine's day, it is one of my least favorite holidays.  Not because I'm single just because I am a firm believer that love should be celebrated everyday. The reason being that we never how long we have until we aren't here anymore. My Uncle Derek taught me that, you should love a person more and more each day and you should try to show them that everyday in the little things. I think that the love that movies and books portray are the kinds of love that we should strive to . Another kind of love that we should strive to be like is the love of God, he loves us everyday no matter what. I think that this is something to remember everyday. Everyday should be Valentine's day. “Love should bring joy, it should grant a person peace, but here and not, it was bringing only pain.”  - Dear John This quote and the inspiration of today's blog is true because this is what love should be but in the end all it does is bring us pain because we allow people who don...

Today's blog is inspired by Grey's Anatomy last night. It was about Valentine's day and all the trials that the couples are going thru. It also focused on Lexi who is alone right now because she wants to be with Mark but he's got a girlfriend.  I find myself this Valentine's day relating to Lexi. I'm alone but I have feelings for someone who doesn't have feelings for me. I normally relate to Christina on the show because she's hard core, focused, and just awesome. But right now Christina is mushed up over Owen. All we need sometimes is for us to realize that the love we have for people may not be perfect but it's still a form of love. I would love to be in love with someone that loves me but I'm thinking that is not ready for that yet.  I have technically "single" for about a year and half. I have learned a lot about myself. I think that I have to get over my feelings and start loving myself before I can love anyone else. And I...

Today's blog is inspired by my favorite artist of all time John Mayer. For those of you that don't know me, I absolutely LOVE JOHN MAYER!! He is probably the only man that could change my views on reproduction and children. I think that his way of thinking and lyrics are beautiful. I feel like his music is looking into my soul when I listen to it. From the happiness in his music down to the heartbreak lyrics, I think he is wonderful. “Never, ever underestimate the power of 'Id Like that.”- John Mayer I realized that he has many good points, for example one of the things that I love about him is when he talks about the dangers of I'd like that... And how it can ended up biting you in the ass. Like seriously how many of us have had that happen to us? Almost all of us. I think that this type of love for me, my love  of John Mayer is unrealistic and realistic at the same time. Unrealistic in the sense that I haven't met John Mayer but I know that I love him. And ...

Today I have met my first exercise goal and the goal to not eat out of boredom so far... Now before my first client I'm catching up on Private Practice.  And I realized that I do secretly love NFL football in a sense. I was watching the super bowl last night and I realized that I liked most of the commercials but I think besides the David Beckham commercial I loved the M&M commercial was hilarious. Among other things:  I'm realizing that from reading a friend's blog that we need love in our lives but it doesn't have to be the romantic kind. I'm thankful for the love of my family and friends.  I learned yesterday in church that we have two types of trials.  I think that I am going to thru trials all the time now while waiting to hear from graduate school. "Unless it’s mad, extraordinary love, it’s a waste of your time. There are too many mediocre things in life, Love shouldn’t be one of them." Hope that you all have a great Monday.
