Duh. Why didn't I think of that.

I had a little four year old girl sit in my chair today. As I was 

cutting her hair she asked how my hair cutting cape had gotten

 a hole in it.. I said "someone must have cut it." She looked up

and said " do you think it was a leprechaun?" This made me 

smile.. I wish I still thought that way :)) (I told her it definitely 

was probably a leprechaun...leprechauns are ninja) ♥

A life lesson from a bike lesson.

When my mom was teaching my little brother to ride a bike he kept falling over and couldn't seem to get the hang of it. After many scrapes and bruises he jumped off the bike and ran in the house, when he came out he was shoving something in his pocket. He hopped back on the bike and road it perfectly, my mom was a little shocked and later asked him what it was that he put in his pocket.. he pulled out a crumpled piece of paper with a picture he had drawn of himself riding a bike. He said "I knew I could ride it because I saw myself ride it already." - visualization is everything. You'll never be able to do what you want if you can't even picture it ♥ ( I now draw pictures of myself living all my dreams ... so it's going to happen!

Blue isn't my color

I was walking around good old Walmart the other day and I couldn't help but notice the people working there. I started thinking to myself (how did  this become their life?) How did they end up doing the monotonous job of scanning item after item, day after day. When these people walking around in their blue vests were little I doubt they got up in class and said "I want to be a Walmart cashier when I grow up." (stylish as the blue vests may be) I don't think anyone wants to aspire to that.  What happened to that childhood dream? What happened to being a doctor, or being an astronaut, or a famous cook on a cooking show? I can't see these people having a real passion for price checks. I wonder what stopped them? I decided right then and there that would never be my life. I have to follow my dreams. I have to be a fashion designer, an artist, the best hairstylist, a dancer, own several companies, and change the whole world. I don't care how long it takes. I don't care how hard it gets. I don't care who says I can't, or what obstacles come my way. I will always follow that dream. I will never settle for less. I will never be content in one of those blue vests, and even if life brings me to that I will never stop trying or striving for more.

The day you lose sight of your dreams and passion is the day you cease to really live. 

I could go left..... or I could go right...

I've been here  million times..... we all have.

The only thing different about this time, for me, is usually I know where I am going, but this time  I have no plan.

 If I go right I stay young. I have crazy wild times. I run away and I buy my trailer of joy and I own my own motorcycle and I see the world. I stay young. I live life to absolute fullest and experience it. I leave my friends and my family, but I meet new people.  I become a modern day gypsy- I wander, and I wing it, and I never know for sure where I'll be next or what I'll have for dinner, or if I'll even be able to afford dinner. I hold onto my youth as long as possible. I'd be taking huge risks and all I could do is hope that everything worked out. If I go right I stay wild and crazy, but in the end I may end up lonely.

If I go left I end up in a different place. I stay where I am and I build my career. I stay with what I know is safe and with the people I love. I probably would end up getting married and starting a family. Everything would be stable, and predictable, but I would have love and always have someone there for me. I'd always have someone to hold at night and arms to keep me warm. If I go left I'd have stability, but I could never settle for an average life. 

I don't know when I will have to decide, but the time is coming. Whichever

way I go will take me far from this place I am now. I maybe look too far into this, but whenever I think about my life right now, and all of the actual intersections I have come to while driving, I always wonder where I would be if I had gone a different direction then the one I chose. Where would I be? Who would I be? I guess the only way to chose which way is best is to pick one and start heading down it........ but which should I chose. Maybe it's time to grow up, but then again this is the only time I have to be young.
