Only Dull People Are Brilliant At Breakfast

Only dull people are brilliant at breakfast. Do I know what this means? Not a clue.
All I know are the memories, the ideas, and the dreams that go along with it. And for me, that is all I need.


It is six days till Christmas. I can't believe it. The past year has gone by so fast, and yet so very slow. Its hard to believe what my life was like a year ago. So much has changed. I have changed. I have learned alot over the past year, and not for lack of reason. Its hard to fathom all that has happened over a simple twelve months, the life I have now is a world apart from back then. I'm not sad it changed though, its all been for the good. Despite a lot of sad changes its been amazing to see how life works out. Our God truly is amazing. He has taught me so much about his control over every second of our lives.


Something that has become extremely apparent in my life this year is His impeccable planning abilities. I've learned that when the things you don't expect happen its so much more beneficial than the things you did think of. I've learned that when you lose the things you thought you needed most, it often turns out you didn't really NEED them forever after all. If you need it He puts it in your life, whether its to encourage, teach a lesson, or inspire. And, if its not in your life, you don't need it.


I also learned how wonderful one of the scariest things is. Growing up. As much as I've always dreamed of when I was older, the older and older I get the scarier it becomes. I've changed so much over the past year, and I've learned alot about myself. It was scary, but it was worth it, and I'd never trade it for anything. I know that the next year holds just as much change for me, and while it still scares me to death, it also excites me more than I can say.

I've lost dreams this year, I've let them go, and hopefully those beautiful moments float to someone else's mind because they deserve a home, and they got me through so, so much. But even after letting go of those dreams parts of them, bits and pieces will stay with me forever. I know they will. They made me the person I am today and for that I thank them wholeheartedly.


I've, of course, gotten new dreams this year. Magical dreams, even more far-fetched, but maybe, just maybe alot more reachable too. These dreams are my life. They are my gift. And I will hold them dear.


I've made so many wonderful friends this year, and I love them all dearly. They are what bring a smile on my face from day to day.


Its been crazy year, with alot of ups and downs but in the end, its the year I needed. Its the inspiration to my life. Its what made me, me. And its a blessing I would never give up.
