Letting go...

“Letting go doesn’t mean giving up, but rather accepting that there are things that cannot be.”

Sometimes in life we have to learn to let go of things that are out of our control. This has been a lesson that I have had to learn the hard way. I am at the end of my first year of high school, and there are a lot of things I am ready to let go of, and start over. I feel like so much of my life, I have been forcing things to work, forcing myself to make what I had the best, but sometimes things just aren't meant to be what you want them to be. Once you really see that you have made things work, you will have so much more happiness for the things that are simply perfect. This is one of those lessons that is bittersweet, its hard to let go of things you love, but in the end you will find the things you don't have to chase are so much more fulfilling. Now for more happier things, SPRING IS FINALLY HERE, and it never felt better. I am so happy the sun is shining (in between the thunderstorms)! I have gotten a chance to spend time with family and even get in a little photography in! My life is happy right now, and peaceful. I hope you all will see, that letting go will make you stronger. Have a great week!

Until next time,

Allie

Stop and smell the roses

“Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.”

It seems as though in this day and time, we are all going so quickly, we never stop to enjoy all the beauty God gave us. Spring is coming, one of the most beautiful seasons, and I only pray I will stop and literately smell the roses. My life has been a bit complicated recently but I decided just to enjoy all of what God has in store for me. I am almost finished with my first year of high school, which is really scary yet very relieving. Although I don't know which direction my life is going, I know that its going to be a great one. I am at that point in my life, that everyone hates, that point when your trying to discover who you are and what you want in life. Let me tell you its not easy! So many decisions can stress you out, and stress we all know drags the happiness out of everything! Whats a girl to do in this stage of life? learn to let it roll of your back and just be happy, yes I know that sounds very cliche and cheesy but I will be the first to tell you its extremely refreshing. I encourage you all to stop and smell the roses whatever stage of life you are in, and just be happy.

The journey

Welcome, this blog is about the journey of a high school girl, who is not quite sure who she is yet......
My high school journey as just begun, and I already feel ready to spread my wings and move on. I have been told many times that I am an old soul, which most likely has something to do with not having a lot of patience for the stage I am in now. Although there are many times I wish I was not in high school, I am loving that everyday I learn more about the world and myself. I hope this blog helps my journey on self discovery and inspiring faith. I hope to be on of those people you hear about that has a remarkable story to tell, and lives life to the core. I wish to be a great person, a happy person, the kind of person you read quotes from that inspire you to change the world. I pray that I will find the girl, I wish to be. I only hope that through this blog you will see what beautiful melodies play through out the journey of our lives and you just have to listen.
Love forever,
Allie
