Ugh
So, I've got 4 blogs I've started on that I need to finish. I've just been feeling a little off lately. I'll get back on it sooner or later. It's just crazy.....life. But since I have no real updates no one is missing out on anything.

What is Beauty?
I've been feeling quite unbeautiful lately. Not necessarily ugly just not beautiful or even cute for that matter. And it's made me start to wonder, what is beauty, and who gets to determine who is and is not beautiful.
Could it be said if we think we are beautiful then we are.
….for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart
A common ingredient in every beauty ideal is self-confidence.
The kind of beauty that really knocks people’s
Socks off, or makes them smile when they see
You, is the kind that comes from inside…
The kind that comes from someone
who is in control of her own destiny.
YOUR BEAUTY IS YOUR OWN.
So the next time you look in the mirror and your brain gets
Flooded with those inevitable unflattering thoughts and
comparisons and badness, try to take a step back
and acknowledge the whole crazy world of beauty and looks
obsession that makes you think that way. And then… maybe
you’ll see that you have the power to create your own look.

Discouraged
Life is hard......really hard. And everyday I wonder if I am doing the right thing, if I am on a worthwhile path that will lead me to future happiness. I am the type of person that analyzes a lot. Some would say I even over analyze, and they would be right. While doing my daily self evaluations I feel like I am constantly coming up short. And unfortunately it's not that I just feel this way but I am coming up short.
I don't really expect anyone to agree with me, to tell me heck yea you're a loser but at least hear me out. 2 reasons:
1: I am almost 29, I'm aware that this is not old, and still have no idea what I want to do with my life. I'm a horrible goal setter. Sometimes I set goals just to impress other people.
2: I am a little crazy...maybe a lot crazy. If you only knew the thoughts that go through my head. You might just commit me.
