Basically I'm a control freak.
I know this.
My friends know this.
My family knows this.
My coworkers know this.
Probably even strangers know this after dealing with me for more than five minutes.
It's just part of who I am.
And bless my family, friends and coworkers' hearts for putting up with it.
Really though, it's almost a problem sometimes, I really really hate the loss of control.
Unfortunately in this life we can't control everything...doesn't that drive you nuts? It certainly drives me crazy.
Basically all of our futures are uncertain, we never know exactly how it will play out, and while at times this is really nice at other times I would really, really love to be able to control how my future plays out, especially when I feel like I have screwed up.
The only thing I can be certain about is that life is uncertain....which drives the control freak in me insane!
Luuuuuuckily there are some things that I am absolutely certain about
- My family will always love me unconditionally no matter what
- I have some of the best friends in the entire world and we have been through so much together. Love you guys!
- A few guardian angels most assuredly have my back
- I made the right decision in going to the University of Utah last fall
- I love my Utes
- I am, always have been, and always will be a Ravens fan
- Diet Coke can basically fix anything
- There has not yet been a day bad enough that a little diet coke, chocolate and Breakfast at Tiffany's hasn't been able to fix
- Hugs are simply the best things in the world
- My fellow Grubstars are the best people you will ever meet....ever
- Cowboy Grub sugar cookies...well if you haven't tried them yet...you need to...they're just that good
- You are never too old to believe in fairytales
- Music speaks when words fail
- Football brings out my most competitive self {don't you be trashing my Ravens or my Utes....You'll get it ;) }
- My favorite people in the world tend to be those who can make me laugh when I don't even want to smile.
- Football Sundays and Monday Night Football make me happy inside
Even though our futures are uncertain that is no excuse to live life looking in the review mirror. We must embrace the uncertainty of it all and run head first with our eyes closed into the future...and if a control freak like me can commit to trying to do this better I'm sure you guys can do it too!
Much love my friends!
P.S.....since it's Sunday I have to add: GO RAVENS!
