don't lose my sense of wonder

I don’t think i’ve lost it completely, but sometimes i can feel it slipping, which i don’t want to happen :(

i think i could tick this off even though it’s an ongoing goal. it’s easy to find beauty in the world, you don’t even have to look that close

of my “be here now” goal. And I love the wording of that goal, so this one’s being marked off.

My grandmother died this week. The viewing was tonight. I was amazed by the stories we were told about how she had touched other people’s lives. Some of these stories were about the simplest kindnesses she did for other people. To Grandma, they were necessities. She wouldn’t have things any other way.

I am amazed at the impact one person can have on the lives of others. I am surprised by the little things that people remember and treasure in their hearts. And I am amazed by the kindness of people, especially when you need them.

As I have gotten older, I have gotten even more curious than I was in high school. I hope I never, ever SETTLE for anything.

Oh man, I totally just felt this exact way like 4 days ago, I thought about being a teenager and how fun life was but now Im like reaching the end of teenagerdom and Im sooo sad I will lose the state of wonder I was in all those years

I want to believe in other people! ^^; So many people let you down, and there are so many changes. I don’t ever ever ever want to lose my sense of wonder~

this life, this world and the way everything is made i just too amazing. i just have to really take the time to appreciate it

I’m feeling smushy, if you can’t tell.

R and I saw Juno last night. Afterwards, we’re snuggling on the couch, and the topic turns to babies. He states that, were he to have a child, it would have blue eyes and black hair.

Mind you, he’s blond.

Then he laughs and says “well, you know, if we have a kid.”

A year ago, I’d abandoned the concept of ever having a child, seeing as how I’d been let down by the males I’d consented to date/live with/marry. And now here I am, contemplating marriage and babies. It’s amazing how things change, and what life can throw at you when you least expect it.

In the last times, I’ve been passing by some problems in my personal life, with my family, with my studies. But I noticed that my sense of wonder is always there. Even in bad moments, I can’t be much pessimist, I always dream in a better day, realizing my dreams… I just have to keep it and I’ll be there someday, soon or later, it’ll be the best time to me! :)
So, I consider this goal achieved!
