To sum up 2008, I’d have to say it was a year of recovery and discovery. 2007 ended on a bad note, and it took so much in 2008 to get myself back together. I would say that at the very beginning, I was lying to myself—telling myself that I was okay and keeping up this game just to get by. But without even noticing I let go… Time really does heal wounds, maybe just not all of...

Major things I’ve learned this year:
Everything happens for a reason.
Love can hurt badly.
Music is amazing.
Great friends support you always unless you’re making a very blind decision. Even then, they’ll support you if you believe you’re happy.
Some people will actively leave your life. Others will actively enter it.
God will always heal you and His love is incomparable to...

Edit: The Pedestal/Getting a Grip/50 Years Later.
It’s easy to say that expectations are an inevitable part of life. They are set, they grow, and eventually they are found pile upon pile resting in your head.

I’ve learned that the happiest people make do with what’s been given to them. They make the best out of the most unfortunate events. They are grateful everyday of their lives - whether something has been handed to them or whether it’s been taken away. They are happy not because their expectations have been reached but because they live with none. The happiest people live day by day; no...

One of my favorite lines… Didn’t catch the greatness of this one until my billionth listen. You phrased it too beautifully, Adele.

If people took the time to sit back and realize that they are not always right, maybe they’d start to understand why others act the way they do.

I hate when people say “it doesn’t matter what other people think” and apply it to every aspect of life because that is FALSE. What people think of you is what gets you places like a certain college, a certain job, a promotion, etc. Sure don’t let what others think of you in general get to you but if you have a certain goal… I’m sorry but the chances of people not giving a fuck about...

Things change. With that simply said, love changes too. I read, somewhere, once “it is a lucky thing if you find somebody that loves you through the change.” I think I read it when Mandarin was still my stronger language, when I used the words ‘I love you’ too easily and when change meant dying my hair Auburn Cherry Red from Blonde-Orange.
Love changes, though. We...
