I've decided to let go of grudges, hurt feelings, stubbornness and forgive and move on with some friendships. People are people and will never live up to my "expectations" so I can either accept it and keep some really good friends (flaws and all) or be alone. I decided today to choose the first because honestly this year has sucked without some of my friends. I went to the extreme this year of not letting people affect me, not take me for granted, not being on call for them; it was nice to take that stand and I think mellowed my high maintenance side a little and taught me a lot but it was also very lonely and disheartening. So 2012 will be the year I hopefully find the balance and as usual continue the growth of me! :)

About Me
"I am fairly certain that given a cape and a nice tiara, I could save the world."
"Life is uncertain; eat dessert first."
"There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous."

"Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly."
"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when their right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."
