Don't wish your life away.

Dear You,

I'm sorry that it's taken awhile for me to make another post. I made an introduction and then left on a cliffhanger. Well, not really a cliffhanger. My life isn't that exciting. Point is, i'll get better at this I promise.

I'll just share some of my thoughts over the past week. Cause it's pretty fitting with the title of this blog.

The best relationships (friendships or dating) take a while to establish. Fact is, it takes a lot of time to get to know a person. And that's why these relationships turn out to be the best ones, because you spend a lot of time with someone and share experiences together. If you have stories together, there's more to talk about and you have a greater connection with someone. It doesn't happen instantly. I don't know why we get that idea in our heads sometimes; if we meet somebody and think they're cool we want them to automatically be our best friend, or start dreaming of a wedding. Sometimes we go so fast and wish our life away. In reality we should savor the moments when we barely know someone and take the time to learn their story. Because if you take the time to get to know someone you'll have a stronger relationship.

But these relationships are also hard to destroy. If you get in a fight with someone you've been close friends with for years, it's going to hurt more than if it was someone you never spent a lot of time with. So just be careful and prepared to risk that. In every situation, it's all about the risk. If you're not willing to make yourself vulnerable then you'll miss out on all the people you could have had great relationships with. Just something to keep in mind.

It's 2am and I'm tired and I want this to end so byeee.

Love, me.
