With patience and preserverance you will get what you want

This is an update on the passport rant I had ever so long ago. Well, 22 months later, my mom finally has a passport. We don't know why, since they essentially told her she was a stolen Mexican baby so she wouldn't get a passport (though this was completely false).

However, she has it. We better head across the boarder soon to make sure it works. :-)

A new beginning

Once again I try to make a new start to life. Funny thing is, I start it with a cold. I haven't been sick in at least 3 years. I forgot how miserable it is.

I am starting to think that I need to change the name of my blog, because I am not sure I have really learned many lessons in life. I tend to make the same mistakes over and over. I wonder if many are destined to repeat their mistakes because it is something more innated and ingrained in our personalities.

How many times does it take until you learn your lesson?

I am tired now. Good night.

Moving on...

I hate moving on. I hate it because you have to leave something behind and in doing so you leave a piece of you, a piece of your innocence behind as well. You usually leave those things you fight so desparately to keep behind... There are going to be a lot of changes in my life. I avoided them for some time, holding on and hoping. However, I think I secretly knew that it was all a pipe dream.

I think more than anything, moving on is just emotionally taxing. It is something you have to do, even though you don't want to and that is what makes it so tiring.

I think that is why I hate dating. Why most people hate working. Why death is so hard, and rejection the worst. The less control you have... the less choice you have... the harder it is to do, even when necessary. But you step forward. You just have to do it... you just have to do it. And with time, you just do it without thinking about it... you just keep moving and eventually forget where you were until you take the time to think about it. Yeah, you just have to do it. It is time for me to just do it. I already took one step. Tomorrow will be another. And right now, I can't think past that.
