tid bits

occasionally, i look for unique/artistic/thought provoking blogs that make me think. think and analyze. i often catch myself doing that...my friends and i were discussing last night, if we had one magical power, what would we want it to be? 
my first thought was to be able to fly...but then, i thought about it, and i would be the ability to switch my brain on and off..sometimes i get sick of hearing myself think, worry, and analyze. but, then again if you weren't able to think, understand, and analyze, you would miss out on so much of life. so...i take it back :)
anywho, a girl in my ward has a blog named "a world that keeps on spinning"...i checked it out, and so glad i did. she writes about the most intriguing subjects. i love her outlook on life and her selfless attitude to help everyone around her. to make a change and impact on everyone's life, and make a name for herself, to be remembered.
she wrote an interesting article about being progressive. what it means to love yourself, before you can let someone in, and let them love you...choosing to be you and set yourself apart from the crowd. "be yourself, cause everyone else is taken." i found it so intriguing, and exactly what i needed to hear this fine day.


"Being progressive is better than sitting with your head stuck in the sandbox. What does it mean to progress? Always looking for what's better, whether that be in yourself, in others, or in what you choose to be. For someone who says they are worthless they may as well say- I be worthless- meaning they were, are, and always will be. Because there is nothing that can be said to change their minds.
Do this, then I'll have that, then I'll be this. Why is it that we need to do something in order to be someone? Choose to be. The doing will be of your choosing because you are what you want to be. In a similar sense, to find someone you love, you need to be someone you love. You can't have or do in a happier sense if you aren't being what you want. Happiness comes from choice. Choice turns into be. And be turns into do and have. The have can be whatever you desire in life. Your own happily ever after in a sense."
"Love. Love is also living life to the fullest. You can't love others without first loving yourself. You are an ever-changing being. Each day makes an impact on you, no matter how large or small. It's the small things that pile up."
