Yikes

Sorry I haven't blogged in two guys. I'm kind of bummed its January and i've already almost missed my quota. But the past few days have been busy. A lot of growing and a whole lot of experiencing. For one, I went on a date to go see Avatar which was brilliant. I hadn't seen a movie in over a year. So, sitting through an entire movie in the theater was awesome. And Avatar was an experience. It was like nothing I'd ever seen before. Though the script was a complete rip off of Pocahantas, they did an excellent job at creating an atmosphere. It was nice just to do something for myself. So, I suggest everyone go see it. It's a great movie with a great message.

Pursuit of Happiness: Go see Avatar! Trust me.

Today was also a great day with great opportunities to go. For too long i've been holding myself back because of fear. I hold on to all these things and people that i've grown attached to- too afraid to let go and just be myself. It's whats holding my back in a lot of ways. The fear of losing what I have even if what I have isn't that great or the fear of moving forward in my life because of how i'll look. I'm so afraid I dont even go out and make new friends. So, today I did two things. One, I went to go to this Troutdale Mom's Meeting which was extra scary for me. I'm super introverted not to mention awkward. Going to a Mom's Meeting was like going straight into the Lion's Den when you're far younger than anyone else there. Not to mention extremely new. But after awhile I settled in and it was nice. Everyone there was so sweet and I learned a lot. Then I went knife throwing with my friends Eric, Travis, and Jessica. That was an extra release. It's something i've always wanted to do, but I didn't because I was afraid i'd hurt myself. But I didn't hurt myself and it was a lot of fun. It was great just to let loose of all these anger thats been weighing all my shoulders and throw a knife at a fence.

We hold onto so much never willing to let go and move on. Whether it'd be big fears or little fears. It's what holds us back alot. So for today's happiness I suggest conquer one fear. Even if it's super small. Just go and do it. I promise it'll make you feel good.

Pursuit of Happiness: Conquer your fears and change the world!
