Let's Go Dancing Instead

Someone asked me to give an update on me. Am I the only one who feels like I just gave one on myself? Well I guess it works well because I just downloaded pictures taken of me from last week.  So Here's a bit on me but updated I guess. It's Summertime and I'm really enjoying this hot weather, not really going anywhere much except for bible study and watching 5 little boys. I dearly miss being able to plan events for other people. Covid life is making people have drive by parties and I really miss the intimate gathering that happen. So since I'm not able to make that happen I've been doing a lot more writing and playing board games, card games and a lot of thinking about things in life. I'm dreaming of days where I don't beat myself up for making the littlest mistakes or striving to be perfect in a world that is anything but perfect. And maybe waiting for my happily ever after because what girl doesn't dream of a happily ever after. So for now I'm trying to set a new plan for my life. When Covid changed my travel plans (honestly not angry about that) and my school plans, I've had to readjust my life. Which leaves me in the place I'm in. Learning patience is really a virtue and people are struggling in the same way as me, even if I only want to see their faults. And choosing to love people, Covid has really made it easy to get in an argument with someone and instead of choosing to hear them out and even if I don't agree with them choosing to just listen and not so quick to speak. I've also been rediscovering things I never knew I liked or still dislike so I guess in a way Covid has been everything. It's been hard, challenging, bittersweet and rewarding. But don't get me wrong I'm totally ready for what's trying to be our new normal to end in a way people can resume their lives. Where fear as it is for me has no place here, friendships aren't tested and ended because we can't agree and would rather fight to be right than fight together to end things in the world we weren't aware of.  Where love is still as strong as a tree planted in the ground. I got to work on my analogy but I hope you get the point.  

So until I can get back to planning events and attend school without fear of risking other people's lives, I'll be creating more blog pieces and listening to music and  going on long bike rides. So here's my updated life
