A tad but cliche, a touch of sappy, and ringing with truth.

      Well today was an amazing day that can only be summed up in one word.

Hope

A good friend of mine called to talk

About the book she was writing and together we just got excited. Which if you only  know me a bit, you know what it looks like... fast talking, jumping up and down, crazy motions with my hands, and a lot of squealing. It took me back to the days when you went to the camp and you decide to do something radical? Anyone had the experience? Start a band (yes, my band was called FYD follow your dreams and I was going to play the drum, and no I have no rhythm or know anything about drums or bands or anything in the genre for that matter. Obviously, this didn't last long) write a book? Or even... change the world?

It's like that unexplained high that is intoxicating and almost overwhelming. 

It's one of the most beautiful experiences in the world..

It's the evidence of extreme hope.

 I think that we, so often, ride that high and get excited and yet we never do anything once this huge roller coaster hits a low point. We forget that the ride isn't over... We have a lot left to do once the extreme emotion wears off.Or even worse, we chalk that idea up to young childish dreams that are petty and out of reach. 

     Hopefully this won't happen to me.. Or to my friend.. Or even more importantly to you. Don't forget that whatever it is... The ride isn't over and though it may seem entirely silly..it's worth it. To risk sounding terribly cliche, I will leave out the quotes about the people who change

The world don't stay in the norm or how you had to break the mold and yada yada yada... But know this.. You won't feel fulfilled till you actually see it through. Till you fight it out and dig through the grit and sweat to find the beauty.   

On a lighter note...my good friend is selling bracelets (which I will have) if you would like to purchase one...there is no cancer, or traumatic event; just the coaster and she is riding it through the blood, sweat, and tears that anything worth obtaining requires. So message me if you would like one? Or are interested in purchasing one.  

Also, on a lighter note... This is nana. :)
