Acknowledging the fact that my life has made two, completely different 180s…in 6 months. I am not where I expected to be in any way, shape or form. I think that’s beautiful.

I think life is beautiful no matter what happens to you in it. In the midst of the ugliest hour, there is always beauty and grace and hope. Somewhere. You just need to will yourself to be see it.

I think life is beautiful when you feel like a failure for a moment. Life is beautiful working at minimum wage, because you feel blessed by the people you encounter there. Life is beautiful when your world is crushed by the demise of a relationship you thought to be your saving grace. Life is beautiful when the same man who had purchased a ring to propose to you with [a ring. that if you’d had just one more month together would’ve been on your finger.] is telling the world bold faced lies about you. Life is beautiful when you feel completely alone. Life is beautiful when you realize you need all new friends. Life is beautiful when you are certain God is disappointed by you. Life is beautiful when you make the mistake you’ve made 1,000 times before…yet again.

You tell me you’re proud of me. Beautiful.

A post for another day.
