on this earth...

i had a conversation with jass earlier tonight and she shared a thought of hers....it made me very happy, and so i need to share.

she said that we are not put on this earth to make money, or start businesses or anything like that....but that we are on this earth to love. she strongly believes that loving other people, friends or family or significant others, is the very most important thing, and if you were to step back and look at your life, that is what you should be focusing on. no matter what your ambitions are, always remember that its the people that make you who you are, and the people that are going to help you achieve your goals, and help you celebrate once you get there.

i agree with her 100%...whats the point of life if youre not taking the time to LOVE your people?? above all things, we need to pay attention to how we show our love to one another. take in the little things, small gestures of affection. they make all the difference.

im so happy that she talked about it and shared those thoughts of hers. she is one smart girl!!

undeserving

i am a really lucky person. i dont know what i did to deserve the friends i have, but it amazes me every day how incredible they are. and even more amazing is the fact that theyve chosen to keep me around all these years.

to my ladies:
thank you for all the love and support you give me. i know i would be a complete mess without you all. you keep me focused and in line, since as we all know....im a teeny bit scatter-brained. rob-you get major points for all the "EM!"s you give me when i get distracted...thanks. i also want to thank you girls for the comfort you give me. anytime i question my path i know i can count on any of you to encourage me and remind me that im alright. you help me feel confident in myself, because really, how bad can i be if i have friends as wonderful as you?? the most important thing i think...is to thank you for the smiles and laughter....without any one of you, my life would be so incomplete. you each have your own way of making me lose my mind laughing. and i cant imagine life without that feeling. the uncontrollable, all-over-body-shaking, cant-hardly-breathe type laughing. its what keeps me going. i LIVE for the times we all get together cuz i always know i will be 100% entertained. you are all so goofy and silly, by the end of most nights...my face hurts from the constant smile! i really hope you ladies know how important you are to me!!! life would be pretty dull without you.
