Time flies

Over the last few days I have noticed how much time has flown by in most every aspect of my life. This summer has flown by! It seems like yesterday I was thinking I can't wait until finals are over and I can go to New York. Then I was thinking while in New York, I can't wait until I am home with Dallen and we can go to Arizona, then when we were in Arizona I couldn't wait to get home and moved into our apartment and now we are here and I can't wait until school starts and Dallen and I can spend weekends together. I got a new job on campus in the student success center and it's only Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings, then I'll keep working at the salon every other Saturday. 

Today I remembered the feelings I was feeling this time last year, and I was miserable. I knew my marriage was failing and I didn't want to even attempt to fix it because I wanted to go back to school and made the selfish decision to do so, and that's ok. Because now I look back on that decision and I don't regret it, I don't feel bad about it, I feel content that it happened. Because I have found things within myself that I never thought I had. I also found someone who has helped me find those things. 

Today I was faced with a judgement of my relationship, and though it stung a little bit because no one wants to feel judged. But because there was no valid argument behind the judgement and I know in my heart that Dallen is the right one for me it didn't hurt. Because I am the happiest and most self aware I've ever been, and I can thank Dallen.

This year has gone by so fast, next thing I know Dallen and I will be walking in May across the stage for graduation and deciding where we are going to move and what our next step will be in life. 

Time flies so quickly and sometimes we get caught up in all the craziness and forget to slow down, take a breath and look around and take in all the wonderful things in life we take for granted. So, stop and take a minute to look around and really take in everything around you.
