Patience.

It's been so long since I've actually taken time out of what seems like a truly busy schedule to write here. A lot because I am busy, but also because unfortunately for the past few months I haven't really had any set routine and very little down time. Honestly, sometimes, I really don't know what to write. I have a hard time finding how to write things, because when I do sit down to write, it either comes off really cold or far too personal. I struggle with having a blog because I am a truly private person, and so this is something that is far out of my comfort zone.

More recently, I've come to a point in my life where I am ready for everything to just start happening. I want to be done with school, get promoted at work, get married, start having kids, buy a home and so on. I am so impatient in letting life unfold, I want everything to start coming to fruition RIGHT NOW. I have to remind myself that the beauty of life is the process. It's so easy to want the end results and not want to deal with the in between like the classes that it takes to graduate, the hard work it takes to get a promotion and the time it takes to nurture and build a relationship that will end in a strong marriage. I want to learn to patience. To be happy with where I am at every second of learning this life.

I guess what I want at this point is just to be present. To do my best in the moments I have right now and be glad in those moments.
