| Holy crap it's been so long! A lot has changed since I last wrote on here. I think it might be because life is finally good and stable for me? These past 6 months have been the greatest of my life! I've been married to the greatest man alive for two (almost three) amazing months! We have a pretty stable life, we're moving to Boise in late December, Ryan will be starting his job soon, I am done with actual coursework in December and will be starting my 16 weeks of fieldwork in January, i've found out who my true friends are and who will be there through it all, and I will be graduating in May and will finally be able to start practicing Occupational Therapy! It is an amazing feeling to have life fully figured out. Yeah, sure, there are bumps, lots of them, but Ryan and I are definately great at getting through them as a team. No matter what comes our way we face it head-on. We may disagree in the process but no matter what, we always wind up ahead of the game. =) That is pretty much the update on our life now! We're doing great and I can't wait to move to Boise and start living our life! After all of the crap that I went through I finally realized that life is what you make it. Your attitude about things really makes a difference. If you work hard, and stick to it, you really will turn out alright even if it doesn't seem like it will ever work. “The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, the education, the money, than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it. And so it is with you... we are in charge of our attitudes.” - Charles R. Swindoll |
