just how it goes....

Once upon a time there was this girl. and this girl had something that she wanted a lot. she tried her hardest to get that, putting her heart and soul into it. one day she found out that she couldn't get it, at least not for quite a long time. at first she was pretty upset about it. but then she thought. and thought some more.

and you know what?

she realized that she was okay with it.

in fact, more than okay. because had she gotten what she wanted, she wouldn't have really been that happy. while what she wanted was amazing and great in concept, in reality, it would have caused more stress than it needed. and now that she doesn't care about this thing anymore, she is free to go after other things in life.

....anyway, thats basically the story of my life.

Redefining success? Anyways, that's good. Move on with your life. You can keep reaching for the fruit you'll never reach, or you can turn around and realize life's a huge orchard.
