too hopeful, too optimistic?

why can’t I find the balance?

People told me LeaderShape would change my life. I’m always skeptical when someone tells me that, but they were right.

I don’t think I started realizing the impact of this past week until the last two days, when people were so honest with you. From that moment on, you were forever intertwined. These people, both the facilitators and the participants, are people I may not talk to in five years, but they’ll still be my friend on facebook because of this connection, because of their incredible love and support.


For myself, I’ve had a rough idea of what I wanted to do in life and what I loved. But now I have a plan, now I have a stronger foundation of people backing me up, and now I just need to take a leap of faith. Get dirty. Take chances. The part I always struggled with, but with these people behind me, I can do it.

And if I fall down, I’ll just say, “How fascinating!” and keep on at it.

Thank you LeaderShape.

I still like Mooresville’s Relay for Life better. I guess it’s because this was a college one so it was more social oriented and the whole raising money for cancer research was lost amidst all the activities. like the luminary ceremony. it was almost non-existant. and despite ripping my jeans while dancing, possibly spraining part of my right knee while dancing, and shivering in the cold, it was still all good, especially since I got to bond with a lot of people. :)

also vain post: I always feel more powerful and accomplished when my hair is soft and straight.

250 men and women were asked to draw what these emotions felt like in their bodies. These are the combined results.
