What if I told you not to tell??? You'd probably do one of three things: number one, and most unlikely, you'd keep my secret and not tell a soul. Two, you'd tell that one close friend (or a couple close friends) who you think wouldn't tell and you'd tell them not to tell, but invariably they would. Or Three, you'd tell everyone because let's face it gossip and spreading rumors is a fun thing to do.

So what if I told you this is all true? Or mostly true? Or only a little sliver of truth is in here and the rest is lies? Would you still read? Would you tell? What if I said that all this is true and I only pretend it's not because it makes for a better story to pretend it never happened? Or what if I tell you it's true and it's really not, would you really believe it?

In either case, this is blog is full of my secrets and whether or not you share them is up to you, but you can't steal them because everything is safe on the internet. And Everyone always believes what they read, so it must all be true. Wait... maybe I'm wrong about this last little bit.

Whatever... It's a secret. Don't tell.

Life is

I don't have anything to say except this quote by Mother Teresa:


Life is an opportunity, benefit from it. Life is beauty, admire it. 
  Life is a dream, realize it. Life is a challenge, meet it. 
Life is a duty, complete it. Life is a game, play it. 
Life is a promise, fulfill it. Life is sorrow, overcome it. 
Life is a song, sing it. Life is a struggle, accept it. 
Life is a tragedy, confront it. Life is an adventure, dare it. 
Life is luck, make it. Life is too precious, do not destroy it. 
Life is life, fight for it.”



Remember that when you are struggling. I came across it today and I couldn't help but be struck, yet again, by those words. Life is unimaginable... Embrace it.
