Moxie

Soooo about 1 year ago my mom gave me this book called moxie. She kept saying, "You're my little moxie". I never really understood what she meant until I finally read this book. Its a little orange book of about 30 pages and makes the most sense of anything I have ever read or heard. I am a very confident person if you dont know me.So for me, this was "pumping me up" if you will. This book has so much truth in it. Some of the quotes are yes, very cheesy but very truthful. Some of the quotes are:
-Give me a place to stand and I will move mountains.
-If its me against 48, I feel sorry for the 48.
-Dont let yesterday use up too much of today.
Okok I know but these quotes got me through a lot. I would carry around this little orange book all the time and read it when I needed to be reminded of how awesome I was. That seems very conceited but its true. I am awesome. I am worthy of more than I give myself credit for. Ok this isnt the point of this blog to rant about how perfect I am. Joke. But one of my friends called me tonight and said they were battling with something and having a hard time being patient and I started to give them advice about how you have to know that everything is a part of a big plan that you were meant to carry out and succeed. I am a patient person when it comes to the small things. In the big picture, I am very unpatient . I want things to happen when I want them to. So I can sit there and tell everyone else to be patient and to know that what happens does so because it all has to. Well thats not fair of me. So i am learning to be patient. Not with the small things but the big things. Because no matter what I do or how I do them, its not me who paints my big picture.

One of my good friends Samantha just got engaged and I was so weirded out to think that she had found the one person who she was never going to run out of things to talk about with. I thought to myself, "Im alone," not like literally, but I do not even remotely know who that is going to be for me. I started to think about all my friends and how they have a good idea of who they want to be with forever. Oh shit. Well then I thought about the fact that I also have a lot of friends who dont have someone. And that made more sense to me because I was refreshed with the fact that I am not alone. because if we are all alone, we are all in that together too.
