Life is a circle... And You Grow During Each Turn

It's so funny how the worst moments of your life have to happen so that the best can happen. And also how things are so much more dramatic when you are in the moment. Without divulging to much information I'll say this: revisiting the past is not always a bad idea. I had a relationship that I wanted for so many years to say I had "closed." I tried to get over it, move on, ignore old wounds... but I couldn't. However this past weekend I was able to move that unresolved issue from the "fail" pile to the "I'm good" pile.

Now, when this past issue was actually in the past, I was completely heart broken I couldn't understand the other side of the coin, but now that I have grown as a person, I can. And I understand that that particular situation was where I thought I wanted to be, but I didn't need to be there. In that moment, it was pure drama, now it's just a comedy of errors that had to happen for me to learn.

So now that the circle has been completed, I don't know what's gonna happen in the future. But what I do know is that I'm so happy and content that this could finally be the end, or a completely new beginning and I would be equally as cool.

I love the feeling of true growth, and I can't wait to take my next step, understanding that life is only plateaus; never-ending plateaus that get further and further apart... but the beauty of the scenery becomes more amazing as you catch your breath waiting for the next climb...

Chicago Sports

Why, oh why do Chicago sports have to be so disappointing in 2009? I mean the only thing I got is hockey... and I'm just really getting into that, so I don't know all the rules, and all the games aren't on TV... it's just not a good look. What do I want for 2010, some damn wins for a change!!!
