Being Me

I have come to the conclusion that I am the happiest I have ever been in a long time. Like I think about my life and I don't even feel an inkling of sadness or frustration. Im just content! I have accepted that Im never going to be a great deep thinker, or a very creative decorator. Im funny and say weird inappropriate things and thats alright! Im finding that when I am authentically me, people notice and appreciate it. Today I was on a plane, and the guy next to me told me he was glad that he barely made it onto his flight because I was one of the most interesting people he had ever met. Who could ask for a more flattering compliment at age 25? If I had been anything but myself, I dont think that would have happened. I think it has been so easy to just be myself lately, because I stopped worrying about dumb stuff. I dont worry about what people think of me. I dont worry too much about what I'm going to wear. I dont worry about whether the day will be good or not. And good things are just coming to me! I got the two jobs that I really wanted and am tasting financial stability for the first time in a long time. I have so many good friends. My heart seriously swells when I think about how much I love my friends. I have the gospel and Im discovering everyday how important it is to me and how I am making it mine. Boys are even being thrown my way now that I feel I have achieved somewhat of a balance in my life. Do I want any of them? Not really. They will mess up the balance!! But they are there, and that is encouraging. :) Namaste.
