Busy-ness

I haven't blogged in months. Not because I did not want to but because the past 7 months have gone by too quickly. My job is wonderful, I truly like what I do and hope to grow in the company. Between working late, weddings, bachlorette parties, bridal showers, setting up my new apartment, trying to keep up with friends, staying in touch with family, and spending time with my boyfriend life seems to move by very quickly. The excuse, "I'm busy" came too frequently out of my mouth when invited out for family and friend events on the weekends. How can you tell life to slow down when it keeps sweeping you up? that is something I definitely have had to learn. There is nothing more important than family, and when your family drives you crazy you really need those few good friends you refer to as family...

As I have gotten older I have developed this fear of loss. Growing up I did not understand how it is possible to lose people. I don't want that...and if it must happen I am going to soak up all the goodness, all the happiness spending time with my loved ones brings me. Because at the end of the day it is all I have, it is all I want...
