A little something to remember...

Courage does not always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day that says,
"I will try again tomorrow."

What a week...

My week went from one of the highest moments of my career to a very low point in the course of about 24 hours.

Yesterday I woke up to a Facebook message...of all things...from someone I'd been spending time with. Perhaps you could call it dating. Whatever...it was new and fun and I really enjoyed the time I spent with this person. Almost a week had gone by without seeing each other and I had tried to stay in touch and make some sort of plan to get together all week. Constantly rebuffed, I had practically given up. Well, yesterday, I got a message basically saying that life is so busy in New York between work and friends, and that we weren't at a point to be 'checking in' on a daily basis. Whatever the hell that means. When I like someone, whether it be friends, family, or someone I'm dating, I communicate...whether that be texting, calling, or emailing.

Apparently my texts were 'moving to fast' and I had too many expectations. How many times have you ever been accused of being too caring?

Whatever...I'm calling bullshit. This person just isn't ready or willing to let someone in their life. And instead of accepting that as their shortcoming, they are placing the 'blame' on me. I'm not sorry, nor will I ever be sorry for being a caring and compassionate person. If you can't get past your own selfishness...you don't deserve this anyway.

Moving on....next.

You're right...time to move on, the dude isn't ready.

And congrats on the career highlight! Don't leave us hanging, what is it?

And you're right about the beach getting a bit chilly. It's still ok for some naked hiking though - I'm hoping for about another month of that. Happy trails!
