Blogging

Dear sweet, 16-year-old, Faithy,

 

 

What an adventure you are in for.

 

 

Life is truly tremendous.  Full of love, laughter, challenges, and triumphs.

 

 

At sixteen you are just starting to find your passion for exercise and holistic health, although you are already a dancer through and through.

Can you believe that you will run 26.2 miles at one time in your future?!  I know that 2 miles is a struggle for you now but you will build up, mile by mile, and run further and stronger than you ever thought possible.

 

 

Before long you will find your future husband.  Don’t sweat the first couple years of on-again-off-again, you two want and need each other with a passion that will stand the test of time.

 

 

I saw this quote the other day and thought of you, 16-year-old Faith.

 

Take it from 30 year old Faith, you’ll never have your shit together.  No one does, or at least not for long.  That’s the beautiful, tremendous thing about life; it just keeps streaming towards you!

 

 

Sincerely,

You in 15 years

{HAWMC Day 10!}

I used to be scared of the dark, but I’m not anymore.

I used to be scared of speaking my mind, even if it wasn’t the favorable opinion, but I’m not anymore.  Well, not as scared as I used to be at least.

I used to be scared of coming in last, but I’m not anymore as long as I know that I am pushing my own boundaries.

I used to be scared of public speaking, and I still am but I find that it usually comes easily once I get those first few words out.

I used to be scared of full-fat dairy, but I’m not anymore.

I used to be scared of calling myself a blogger, but I’m not anymore.

I used to be scared of the unknown, and I still am but I am working on embracing it with an open mind.

I used to be scared of asking for help, but I’m not anymore.

What fears have you overcome in your life?

HAWMC Day 9!
