Keep reaching. And hug me.

April 11, 2011 Carly Findlay 6 Comments

Maybe it’s an adjustment phase.
Maybe it’s because I’ve been having really good times with great people, and in my downtime I’m being introspective. 
Maybe it’s because I just want to be good at everything.
Or maybe it’s because it’s six months today since I felt a spectrum of emotions and then I said goodbye.

I need a hug. 
My dreams don’t lie in the conformity of the ladder climb. My dreams are creative, big and lifelong. And I am working so hard to achieve them. I know they’re in reach.

It can be disheartening when someone doesn’t regard your goals and dreams to be as valid as you do. 
But soldier on regardless and keep working hard to achieve them.

And I will.

    You are real and you are special and some day we will each hopefully find a person who appreciates us for who we are not how we look. Cherrie

    We all have good days and bad days.
    Read "Oh The Places You'll Go" by Dr Seuss.
    There's a few great messages in there.

    {{Hugs}}
