Hello Huckleberry Friends!
I have recently come out of a fog in my short life that has allowed me to be more open with my thoughts. In contingency with those realizations, I have decided to blog. It is not a blog to impress anyone or to to give advice. It is just to chronicle thoughts, dreams, hopes, wishes, events, and misguidances of me.
Who am I? I am a 21 year young woman. I am already rattling some screws loose in my head because of growing older. I am fearing the arrival of my 25th birthday just because I know my quarter life crisis is inevitable. I am welcoming the arrival of my 30th birthday, when my “Give a Damn” will finally be busted. Until then, I will continually dread growing another year older and having nothing to show for the year I am leaving behind. Luckily, that fear drives me to live life with a fury and passion and forgiveness other people do not have.
I am a forgiving person. Do not mistake me for a forgetting person, for that I am not. I just choose to forgive those who have hurt me because it is easier to make room for their love than to foster any hate in my heart. I would rather let bygones be bygones, and choose my actions more carefully next time.
I am lucky to have a man in my life that I care for very much. Things are very hard right now for us, and we are trying to make things work despite the helplessness we feel at this moment. It is the worst thing to love some one so much, and know exactly what they require, bequeath the Lord and the universe to deliver those requirements, and never see them coming. It poses a lot of questions that I am afraid to ask in my very first post, but hopefully as I grow into this experience I will know when the time is right for me to go searching for those answers via MoonRiverCossing.
I am Strong. I am beautiful. I am no stranger to love. I am no stranger to hate. I am not perfect. I never will be perfect. I have tattoos. I have piercings. I have an insurmountable appetite for knowledge and reading and life. I am excited to embark on the journey this post begins with blogging, and to chronicle and share the life I lead - interesting or not.
“Moon River, wider than a mile,
I’m crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you’re going I’m going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There’s such a lot of world to see.
We’re after the same rainbow’s end—
waiting ‘round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me”
-Moon River (1961)
