Home sweet home.


Hello lovelies. I can't believe it's been this long since I have blogged. There are so many new and crazy things going on in my life right now and I couldn't be happier! 

First off, I moved out!!!!! I am renting my own little home and my heart is just full of so much joy. I have always been an independent person, so to finally be out on my own is more than exciting for me! It's a two story house with a yard,  rose garden and fence! There's also a cute little porch with a porch swing that I am just oh so excited to sit on and drink coffee during my summer mornings. My best friend helped me to move everything in and it's already so homey and cozy. I can't wait to see how it continues to grow over this next year! 



There it is! My perfect little home :) 

Alright. Now that I got to explode a little of my excitment it's time to get serious. Ha! Along with the independence and house comes the bills and stress from money. I have been searching and searching for a second job. Throughout this process I think I've figured out more what I am wanting to do with my life. For now though, I just want an office job where I can get up, get dressed nicely and go into my steady job. It's a struggle to find this right now but I'm not gonna stop searching. And if for some reason any of you come across a job like this, let me know? :) 

I also decided to go through my tumblr, just to try and find some inspiration and I came across this quote, 

"Hope has two beautiful daughters. Their names are anger and courage; anger at the way things are, and courage to see that they do not remain the way they are."

The first time I came across this quote I cried. (I'm quite an emotional person.) it just hit me so hard because I tend to feel stuck. Life overwhelms me and I feel like I'm not gonna get anywhere and that things will always be a struggle. More recently I have been reminding myself that things can only get better. Does it take time? Yes, sometimes. But those are the time you teach yourself patience and courage to keep treading through the heavy waters. 

Which leads me to my tattoo that I got. My brother and I have been through it all. Our childhood is one that I have taught myself to forget because it's not one that anyone should have to remember. Through it all we have been so blessed, though. Things have only gotten better for us through life even if at times we didn't think it would. 

"An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backwards. So, when life is dragging you back with difficulties it means that it's going to launch you into something great. So just focus and keep aiming." 

With that being said, remember that life is life and it will be hard but never ever allow your head to fall. Keep your chin up and your heart big. Greater things are ahead. Write soon. 

Xoxo
