live and let live.

Going through my drafts. I opened this one up that I wrote almost a year ago in December. I have no memory of writing it, what it's about, or even who. But I liked it. I'm posting it now for others to read. Thanks for indulging me in my random blog updates. =) 


I'm going to tell a story. If not for your pleasure then for my memory. 

So I was pmsing...
Getting mad at someone that didn't necessarily do anything wrong but in my eyes they were just being annoying. I was being super stubborn about the situation.  
Anthony was around for the whole exchange.

He called me on my shit. 
I got mad. 
But then he came back to me and said... 
"you know i think one of your best qualities is that you live and let live.." 
He went on to say that he admires this in me and it makes him try to do this as well and not be judgemental. I can honestly say that he made my attitude change right away. 

Wow. 
He thinks this of me. We have been together for 5 years and he has never said those words to me. It was a really awesome feeling to hear the person that you love say kind words to you about you. 

I just want to remember this. That someone thinks this of me. So when I start being judgy about something and I can reflect and know that someone looks up to me and that I should change my attitude.

I love Anthony for reminding me to act more like myself. 

Also,  wouldn't that be a cool tattoo? Live and Let Live. I like it.

10 years.

10 years ago I was 14 going on 15.

10 years ago I was a sophomore in High school.


10 years ago today I woke up to go to school like any other day.

10 years ago today I wore my favorite pink tank top and sparkly belt.


10 years ago today I watched the news. Like every morning before school.

10 years ago today I didn't understand how someone could accidentally crash their plane into a building.

10 years ago today I watched a second plane on live feed do the same thing.


10 years ago today I was confused. What was going on?

10 years ago today I watched the news in all of my classes. I was so interested.


10 years ago today I wrote in my dairy that the USA had been attacked by terrorist

10 years ago today I cried myself to sleep....feeling helpless. I wanted to help those people who were trapped in the buildings ruble.



10 years ago today the world changed

10 years ago today was one of the scariest and saddest days in my life.


I will always remember 10 years ago from today. As many of you will too.



Today; I'm proud to be an American. Today; I stop and take a minute to think about those who we lost. Today; I celebrate life.





Ps. Happy Birthday to my brother. 19 years old...can't believe it.
