ducklings are like dreams. they need gentle time to grow.

{campus. spring 2010.}

i have around a bazillion new ideas a day.

paint a bookshelf. revamp my wardrobe. new makeup trick. organize drawers. build a desk. giveaways. knit. sew. eat organic.... these are just a few that happened to fill my head today.

each day i get a surge of excitement to create my plans. and each day i am reminded of how fast time passes, how expensive things tend to be, and that i am a poor busy college student.

and each day my heart breaks a little.

i love school. i love my friends. i love life.

but this year i have been trying to understand the balancing act that is life.

i have observed the order of priorities.
i have fought against time, earning myself a spot in the procrastinator hall of fame.
and i have come to accept that life is about sacrifices.

this lesson is the toughest one I've tried to learn. but I'm trying my best.

my favorite part of the lesson--

your dreams can come true. you just have to be patient & nurture them while they grow--like you would a baby. or perhaps a duckling.
