“I will not allow anyone to walk through my mind with their dirty feet”. ~Ghandi~

I like to start my entry for today with that quote by the greatest Mohandas Ghandi. It was shared by one of my online acquitances. Thank you, Maria… that quote is an statement of freedom of mind, of transparence of the heart. So good for the present days, where my heart is still hurt by recent events, but at the same time proud for being able to achieve the state of mind where I can say that I don’t feel guilty anymore.

I guess it’s part of growing older. The years pass and bring more experiences and a way to learn that we all change for the best. I’m at a moment in my life where I feel satisfied of what I am and what I do and a moment where I feel I can achieve anything I want if I put all my heart and soul into it. It might not be easy, but now I feel confident and I’m sure the people who are close to me will be the greatest support because the more the day pass, the more I realize who I can trust.

If I say that my life has been all honey and roses, it would be the biggest lie of all. But I can’t complain about it either. Sure there have been moments when I thought I was not going to get out of the hole, and when I wondered why I felt so lonely, or why I wasn’t able to find someone to love me. There have been moments too where the hope was just not there, where I wanted to leave this world and big big shadow of sadness in the hearts of those who really love me… But those moments are gone now…

I’m in place where I feel totally happy, with the person I love with all my heart, doing what I can to make everything work at it’s 100%, learning new things everyday. People say I’ve changed so much, and some of them might not like what they see after knowing the careless person I was before; getting older has made me a little bitter too, but I like it this way because with so many people disappointing you at times, it is better to have a head more than a heart.

Yes, I like the way I am now. Knowing what is best for me, thinking of a way where I can improve everyday. Reaching for the perfect balance between my own needs and kindness towards others. For the first time in my 27 years of existence I’m almost completely satisfied with the person I am, yet there are still many things I have to change for my own sake… but I know I will get there!

Being older is good… let the years come!

“It doesn’t necessarily mean that your weblog is boring. You just enjoy talking a lot more than writing. You have a busy social love because your friends love having you around. They just can’t get enough of you. You might be wishing that you could spend more time online, but you really shouldn’t. You’re already right where you belong.”

Honey, I’m home! Back to bloggin normally. Had to kind of force myself to do it because now-a-days I feel like I have nothing interesting to say, but what the heck! You just can’t leave the problems in your life be bigger than yourself. So, here I am and I have joined the HoliDailies which makes me keep my promise of blogging everyday for the month of December. Check it out; it’s a cool project!

Had a very busy week; lots of work to do at the office with the holidays coming and the flower business getting crazy. Don’t know how many boxes of flowers we got this weekend from Colombia and Ecuador… it was just overboard! We’re getting all these beautiful Holiday Packs with red and white flowers and they sell themselves alone! We’ve just started working with the quotations for St. Valentine’s… this never stops. But it’s so good to have a full-time job, and actually do something in life better than staying at home all day stalking websites… ha ha!

Right now I’m like very tired. Finished painting today, put some curtains in the living room, decorated for Christmas, and with another long week of work I think it’s time for me to go to bed. So, I will catch up with you people later.

Oh! Don’t forget to check on the right side of this page a feature called BlogSnob. It’s a nice way to publicize your blog and you actually get to see some good sites. Hint: make sure you add the .adheading and .adtext to your CSS so the script will match your layout, the size of your font and everything (if you work with CSS, that is).
