I agree that it's the journey of learning about yourself and figuring things out - nothing ever just appears perfectly for you. Thank you for your insightful commen! @ Jamie - Thank you - hope you're well : ) @ Milena - Yeah, I don't always agree with Hercules either, but he makes me think! Thanks for the kind comment. @ Nicole - I appreciate your encouragement and prodding! ; ) @ Monica - I know what you mean about that positive anxiety. Hope it serves you well! @ Ms. Smiley - Uh, yeah. This post was partly inspired my an hour-long crying session to my mom - I'm with you, babe! @ Brian - Great words. Oh, and you should definitely do the skydiving thing yourself - it's way cooler than the video : ) @ Beth - Great to hear from you and thanks for the kind words. Looking forward to catching up. @ Lisa - Ah, but I don't feel that they are my values all the time. So stressful! But yes, I won't try to be normal any time soon! @ Steve - Defintiely.
