No Longer Running 11:43 PM

All these words don't mean a thing to you, but if there's one message I could convey to you in this jumble of letters and punctuation marks, it would be this: Thank you.

I never realized how beautiful and short life is. Every second counts. I think I see that now. Running around trying to be a superhero, trying to right every wrong, trying to prevent anything from screwing up; that only kills me and solves nothing. The best I can do is just be true to myself and take the good with the bad. That's life.

Life is a beautiful thing. Absit invidia, absit damnum. I refuse to hate. I refuse to let bitterness destroy me. It took everything I loved from me once. I won't let it do that again.

When I embrace it all, the good and the bad, I grow. I change. I allow myself to learn and mature. I can see my mistakes, admit them, and benefit from them. You are not worth hating. Without you, there wouldn't be a me. We need each other to survive. Life is grey without the rich experiences you offer.

I never said thank you for that.

It's been awhile 1:52 PM

Miss me?

I guess I forgot to post an explanation. See, I gave up blogging. Yeah. I didn't want to have to post an "oh-I'm-so-sorry-thanks-for-your-love-and-support" post detailing my reason for quitting blogging. But the good news is, I'm back. For real. Hopefully.

A lot has happened in this two month period; but one change that probably stands out the most is my decision to leave Canada. I like it here, it's not an altogether bad place to be, but it just isn't for me. Unless I get a major recall from the Lord, I plan to be elsewhere by the end of the year.

I plan to have more to say within the following days. Until then, I'm so sorry, and thanks for your love and support.
