This is just the truth.

Sometimes I need to learn to step back and look at what I truly have. Stop wanting so much and just accept the way things are. I need to learn to love the way things are, especially things I cannot change. I need to accept the truths of my life. I want to love the life I have without attempting to change the things I have no control over. 

 I have a wonderful life and I am trying to learn not to take it for granted. This is just the truth. I have a sweet, sweet boyfriend who I need remember to appreciate instead of miss. I knew it would be hard when I entered the relationship, I need to finally accept that he isn't in the same state and just be happy with the fact that he adores me. This is just the truth. I have an amazing friend who just lets me chill next to her for hours and enjoys it as much as I do. This amazing friend will be gone from our continent in months, I need to show her my love while I can. This is just the truth. I am going to be done with high school in a matter of months, moving down the hill, and starting a new chapter in my life. I need to love the time I have left here. 

This is just the truth. 

Love and Turtledoves,
