Leaps of Faith (I never do deep posts...)


Thats how the cookie crumbles. But really, hey. how art thou. Have you ever caught yourself taking on too many projects at once? Like more things you can balance? Well if you can relate, just know we are probably about 10% similar. It's fine, I don't think I'd try to be me either.

I guess I am part of the percent that tries to get her feet wet in everything. Except mud, yea I don't think I enjoy that oozing between my toes. Ever since I was younger I've tried things that you are supposed to do. As baby sunshiney Rach, I took on sports, art classes, and camps. I was done with sports in the 8th grade, I took art classes until freshman year of college, and camp has been a whole life thing for me. Like sports and art classes (although I love art now - not sports), I eventually made my parents mad by wasting 300+ dollars and quitting. Why? Because there was always something better.

I've quit a lot of things. Why? Because I've taken on oh so much. But I think I like the thrill of waiting to see if I got something. Then I feel great about it, gloat and shit. The cloud 9 shenans. Then I usually complete the same process over and over again. There are few things that have been constant in my life. One being my high school youth group. And I think thats about the only thing I've stayed with from start to finish. Schools? I've transferred one too many times. Towns? Yep that too.

I usually take on more than I can handle, but I like the challenge. I complain about always being so busy, yet I'm the worst procrastinator. Meaning, I get everything done way before hand because otherwise I stress the whole entire period before it's supposed to be due/finished. It's a great yet annoying quality about me. 

Ok, I'm honestly the joker of serious posts since most of them embrace my less than perfect guy obsession. But speaking of that, because of all of my leaps of faith recently, I realized I truly don't need one. I have over a billion things going for me that don't include needing a boyfriend in the description/requirements/responsibilities.

I hate to be vague, because if you are a regular you understand how open I am about my life. I'm just sitting here hoping this will be going my way, although it's been a bumpy road, engine break downs, flat tires (no really), and all, I decided that a having a little bit of faith is all I really needed to get me going.

And to take me where I am supposed to be!

  4. Leaps of faith is when you prove to yourself that you can truly take on anything. I believe highly in "GOD DOESNT GIVE YOU THINGS HE KNOWS YOU CAN'T HANDLE."

  5. Leaps of faith can be sketchy but that's what your friends, family, and faith are for. To pick you up when you're down and encourage you when you're happy. Keep up being busy and productive and creative and continue moving forward :)
