Life goes on...

It's funny how quickly life can take drastic changes. A couple posts back, I wrote about how much can happen in a year (entry found here) but changes haven't stopped there. From trying a relationship again to watching it fizzle once again due to a lack of communication and effort to make it work to trying to find my place in this grown up world.

Makes me wonder why and how anyone decides to get married. Sounds dramatic but I truly think that. I see the marriage my parents have and wonder how in the world they make it work so flawlessly. I know all relationships and marriages are work and have problems, but good grief I don't see how I'll ever be able to handle it.

I'm at that age where a lot of my friends are getting engaged and married, but then I also am at the age where more times then not I think about how we're too young to get married. It's not just playing house. You can't just go home and not text the significant other for a couple hours (or days) until you get over it. Nope. You're bound together legally and "for better or worse" you're, basically stuck. Now don't read what I'm not saying, I totally believe in marriage and look forward to it someday. However, I truly admire those who can make it work at my age (and younger for that matter) and stick through the bad and the good.

I have been chucked in a different direction in the past 24 hours and it's a hard pill to swallow and keep my head above water. I will not let this recent speed bump affect my work life and social life. It may slow me down and make me think twice before I start dating someone in the future, but I will not let this one get me down, again.

Until next time...
