Tonight I learned a valuable lesson. Life is what you make of it. If you don’t like something about your life, change it! Only you have the power to make a change in your life. No one else can convince you. I found that my life was becoming so overrun by school and work that I wasn’t able to fathom changing my schedule to make time for people.
I have some valuable friendships that I don’t want to lose and I have to consciously make an effort to nurture them. Lately I have been distancing myself, it seems, from the world. Tonight I really hit rock bottom and decided to take a stand. Yes, school and work are important and I still place them high on my list of priorities, BUT the whole purpose of life is having personal relationships and community. We are not meant to go through this life alone.
Just remember that it’s important to prioritize the most precious things in life – relationships. Never let them go.
