I Want Someone Who Wants Someone Like Me

I just want a gentleman. Someone to sweep in and knock me off my feet. To come in and be my very best friend. To love me for my quirks and my bad habits and my faults, as well as my admirable qualities. I want someone who will laugh at my jokes even when they aren't that funny. Someone who will tease me but never take it too far. Someone who will hold me when I cry during movies. And who will hold me when I cry during hard times. I want someone who will sing along to the radio with me. Who will go on drives with me and let me crank the music up and roll the windows down. Someone who appreciates me. Who treats me right. Who fits in with my family and loves them as their own. I want someone my brothers can look up too. Someone my sisters feel comfortable with. Someone who respects my father and appreciates my mother just simply because they are where I came from. I want someone who has a testimony of the Savior. Someone who believes in Jesus Christ and will raise our children to do so. I want a man who puts others first and who loves adventures. Who will give me long hugs that last forever and never let me go. I want someone who gives me butterflies and keeps me up at night. Someone who understands that I am all in with everything I do. And understands that sometimes that's my greatest quality and other times it's my biggest downfall. I want someone who wants someone like me. I want to be his first choice. His last choice. His only choice.

And I'm only thinking about this because of a chat with a friend. And because so many close people in my life are getting married. I'm not sad or upset or bitter or anything like that. I simply had some thoughts that I put down on paper. And I thought I would share.

What Are You Scared of Today?

FACT: The smartest people that I know are the people who read. FACT: I am nowhere near being 'the smartest person' anyone knows. FACT: I am a work in progress. FACT: I can become so much more than I currently am. FACT: I am on a quest to read as much as I can for a whole year. FACT: This is exponentially harder than it sounds. _________________________________________________________________________________ I was scrolling through Facebook last week and I came across an article that caught my attention. Being on a "quest to read more" I clicked on the article and started to read a column written by a young lady regarding mental health, her experience, and what she longs to say to those 'dear friends' around her who are also struggling. It was a great read and I am glad that I took the time to read it, however there is one question that has stuck in the back of my mind: "What are you scared of today?" As I have continu...

UPDATE

UPDATE: saying yes is hard, sometimes (a lot of times) I choose sleep over clean hair, and these people make my heart oh so happy! As I continue to give fully to my job and to the people in my life, I continue to learn more and more that these humans give me more than I could ever give them.  And that is completely worth it. 

Why I Drove to Washington By Myself

Okay first things first....I went to WA to see my friend Liz. Look how cute she is! She got a grown up job and moved to the *cutest* little town in WA and I miss her, so I took a few days for myself and went on a trip to see her. Secondly, I want it to be known that I DID invite a friend to come with me. I have a good friend who I would have loved to have join me on the trip, but when he couldn't come I was sad but didn't bat an eye. Here are the reasons that I invited him: He is excellent company. He has a great taste in music. He is friends with Liz as well. I thought it would be fun if he came. The end that is all. I didn't invite him to make the trip cheaper, to help drive, or to make me feel safer. It would have been fun if he could have come, but either way I was going to go. I drove to Washington by myself because I could. Because I am saying YES. Because I am done waiting for "someday".  Someday when I have more money, or...
