what up

Hey. I am here. just super busy with too much to say! I found this quote and found it very, very true of my life right now. I feel like giving up and then......this...

B. D. Gulledge : I used to sit on the banks with a raft and watch the water roll lazily by. One day I pushed my raft into the shallows of the water and found the water moved swifter than I thought. My raft was actually a boat. Then, after some time, I rowed my little boat into deeper water. There were great storms, mighty winds, tremendous waves, and sometimes I felt so alone. But I have noticed my little rowboat is now a mighty ship manned by my friends and loved ones; and beautiful calm seas, warm sunny days, and nights filled with comfortable dreams always double after a storm. Now, I could never go back and sit on the bank. In fact, I search for deeper water. Such is life when lived.

Thanks to everyone that supports me. I know there are more than I ever think to thank. So, here's to all of you. Thanks so much! I really, really appreciate it. Wouldn't life be dull on the banks? I'm so glad I'm out in the middle, learning lessons everyday!

  1. Wow...great quote, Lucy! And so true. The thing I have learned is that, in the long run, the roller coaster is way more fun (and much more thrilling) than the merry-go-round.
    I'm here for you. I feel like I haven't lived up to my obligations and expectations since my life went reeling out of control this past fall...but I promise you can count on me and I'm here if you need me.
