good things come to those who wait...

i am impatient. i will always be the first one to admit this. i am incapable of waiting for anything to happen in it's own time and feel that everything needs to be done right now. but lately, i've come to realize that letting things happen naturally feels great. as a firm believer in fate, it feels wonderful to encounter a situation and know that this is what the universe wanted to happen. it has come to my attention that the world got along just fine for hundreds of millions of years before i was even a thought, and will continue to do so millions of years after i'm gone (unless this whole 2012 thing is legit) so i am happy to report that the days of me running around like a chicken with it's head cut off are long gone. spending all my free time planning out every minute detail of the next 10 years of my life, right down to what color shutters i want on my first home, is a waste because life is full of surprises, and nothing works out precisely the way we plan it to. so rather than constantly be upset with the universe throwing off my plans for my abbey dream house, i'm ready to just roll with it, take things as they come, and appreciate what happens without asking why.
