"A cloud does not know why it moves in just such a direction and at such a speed, it feels an impulsion... this is the place to go now. But the sky knows the reason and the patterns behind all clouds, and you will know, too, when you lift yourself high enough to see beyond horizons."

Good Morning beautiful blog-o-sphere! I am sitting in my living room listening to the wind howl outside, waiting to eat breakfast and got to thinking about spring break again. It is saturday, which means it is the last day of my break before I have to pack up and head back to college and start working hard again. Did my spring break list come true? Some of it, not a whole lot of it, but some did. I DID get a book and get lost in the story, I did get ready and truly went out, and I did say yes to something I wasn't sure about. Most of all though, this spring break made me again realize how THANKFUL I am. I have an AMAZING best friend. No matter what we do or who were with we have the time of our lives. I have an AMAZING family, and even though my mom was recovering from surgery all week, just hanging out with them and seeing how much we are there for each other reminded me the blessings I have. AND last but not least, I am truly thankful for this spring break, because not only did I need the break, but I think I needed the lessons I learned from it.
What I mean is I needed to be reminded of what is important, and rediscover what I can gain from the people and situations in my life that challenge me. also, to relish in the people in my life and the situations in my life that aren't perfect but are amazing and exactly what I need.
"There is no such thing as a problem without a gift for you in its hands. You seek problems because you need their gifts."
My quotes today are from the book Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah by Richard Bach. Actually the tittle and my main quote are from him. There is something about that book, something about his quotes that inspire me 100%. If you haven't read the book, and need to be inspired FIND A COPY. Live the lessons in it, let it bring you hope and faith and awaken a spirit you didn't know was in there. If the book is not for you, find something, ANYTHING, that will awaken your spirit again, and make you remember why your thankful, or why you should be. Look into your life, the people, the situations, and figure out what you are gaining from them, and what they are gaining from you. Make a posative change, empower yourself.... remove a cloud.

"argue for your limitations, and sure enough, they're yours."
"Every person, all the events of your life, are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you."
"If your happiness depends on what somebody else does, I guess you do have a problem"
"Remember where you came from, where you're going, and why you created the mess you got yourself into in the first place"
Get inspired <3 L
