I think I will need to copy and paste it somewhere.<br /><br />I really enjoy your posts Celia, happy or sad. I wish I could be out there and hand out with you on friday nights if you have no one else to be with, or just watch some movies together and laugh a ton at mostly nothing. Hopefully there will be something that comes up soon for you and I bet there will be. Probably something better than anything you had in mind. Love you!Brittanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03961305170093508326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7120868826312296726.post-37186792975922682492012-02-13T11:29:59.256-08:002012-02-13T11:29:59.256-08:00You're so much more verbose than I am.

Be open to going wherever you need to, to create friendships that are even more lasting than the ones you thought you had. I thought friendships from high school and college would stick around, they don't always. Some do. The ones that stick seem to be the ones where you struggle through things together, help eachother and see eachother in the worst situation and still come back. Ok, that sounds like any sort of meaningful relationship:)lisa c.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08862293942724377307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7120868826312296726.post-57389676477440857712012-02-13T05:31:25.430-08:002012-02-13T05:31:25.430-08:00I know that I am 2000 miles away but I still think...I know that I am 2000 miles away but I still think of you! I hope your next adventure falls into your lap. There is a huge world outside of the provo bubble. Not to mention great singles wards all over the country. I know you will find your next step. It hurts to grow, it hurts to change, but before you know it, you can do bigger and better things that you never thought yourself capable of. Best of luck Celia! Send me a line or a ring sometime!Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11296501402701293807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7120868826312296726.post-76649885867135372962012-02-12T19:05:24.296-08:002012-02-12T19:05:24.296-08:00Good lessons to learn though its not always fun le...Good lessons to learn though its not always fun learning them. A poem comes to mind: <br /><br />When things go wrong as they sometimes will,<br />When the road you're trudging seems all uphill<br />When the funds are low and the debts are high,<br />And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,<br />When care is pressing you down a bit --<br />Rest if you must, but don't quit.<br /> <br />Life is strange with its twists and turns,<br />As every one of us sometimes learns,<br />And many a fellow turns about<br />When he might have won had he stuck it out.<br />Don't give up though the pace seems slow --<br />You may succeed with another blow.<br /> <br />Often the goal is nearer than<br />It seems to a fair and faltering man,<br />Often the struggler has given up<br />When he might have captured the victor's cup,<br />And he learned too late when night came down,<br />How close he was to the golden crown.<br /> <br />Success is failure turned inside out --<br />The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,<br />And you never can tell how close you are,<br />It may be near when it seems afar,<br />So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit, --<br />It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07693752366148503285noreply@blogger.com
