Those Summer Nights

I noticed a common theme while looking back on several previous blog posts. A lack of depth. I have been posting some pretty lame updates to my blog as of late. Who really reads blogs anymore though? Maybe I am crazy, but sitting down with a pen and paper is actually refreshing to me. I type quite a bit at work, school, facebook, chat sessions, etc. and sometimes miss the feeling of actual paper beneath my finger tips. I suppose I haven't had much to say the past few weeks.
Last night I went to dinner in Denver with a good friend of mine who said something profound that opened my eyes. "I feel like I know myself now--I am finally the person I have always wanted to become." I stopped for a moment and processed her comment. Then agreed. I also feel like I know myself and believe that I am finally becoming the girl I have always wanted to be. I am dressing the way I want to, behaving the way I want to, and believing in the things I want to believe in. I guess that means I am finally growing up. Happy regardless of my surroundings.
Another wise comment from a friend this week--"No one who has accomplished great things ever went without moments of boredom. In fact, some of the greatest talents sprouted from moments of down time...where they had nothing better to do than to think, create, explore."
I leave you again, with another simple post. Hope you are enjoying your summer nights as much as I am.
