There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right direction



No one believes that their life will turn out just kind of okay. We all think we are going to be great. And from the day we decide to BE great, we are filled with expectation. Great expectations of who we will be, where we will go. And then... we get there. We all think we’re going to be great and we feel a little bit robbed when our expectations aren’t met. But sometimes expectations sell us short. Sometimes the expected simply pales in comparison to the unexpected. You got to wonder why we cling to our expectations, because the expected is just what keeps us steady. Standing. Still, the expected is just the beginning, the unexpected is what changes our lives.


Do you ever wonder how long it takes to change your life? What measure of time is enough to be life altering? Is it four years like high school? One year? A summer? Can your life change in a month, or a week, or a single day? We're always in a hurray to grow up, to go places, to get ahead. And when you're young, one moment can change everything.. but If you could go back and change one thing about your life, would you? And if you did, would that change make your life better? Or would that change ultimately break your heart? Or break the heart of another? Or would you choose an entirely different plan?


The thing about plans is they don't take into account the unexpected, so when we're thrown a curve ball in life, we have to improvise. Of course, some of us are better at it than others. Some of us just have to move on to plan B, and make the best of it. And sometimes what we want is exactly what we need. But sometimes, sometimes what we need is a new plan..
We have to constantly come up with new ways to fix ourselves. So we change, we adapt. We create new versions of ourselves. We just need to be sure that this one is an improvement over the last

My life is changing… I don’t think it was suppost to change how it did in someways… I belive when people realize what choice I have made and understand the truth they will be happy me...... for us. And see the happiness i share with Eric everyday. To see the choices we are making to shape our future. The struggles we go through , the challenges, the unexpected... I pray everyday with all my heart for the strength to carry on when everything feels it has gone wrong… it wont be easy. It is never ment to be. But i see the light at the end of our tunnel. Soon, we will have what we have been working for. Our plan.. is just starting... I am the happiest I have ever been... what a change.
